Now in the fourth decade of publication, Teacher Education Quarterly has emerged as one of the leading scholarly publications in the teacher education field. Each volume focuses on a major current topic in the preparation, study, and preparation of education professionals, in articles written by the top researchers and practitioners in the field from across the country.
Teacher Education Quarterly has moved to an all-electronic submission process. Please see the Submission Guidelines tab above for further information. To submit a manuscript see the tab Submit Manuscript on the left. The site will guide authors through the electronic submission process. Once an author has submitted a manuscript, the Editor assigns readers, asking for an evaluation of how well the manuscript might fit in the journal with respect to the following criteria:
1. Significance of the work for teacher education;
2. Conceptual framework of the work and the literature reviewed
3. The appropriateness and thoroughness of the methodology - research questions and description of the data
collection and analysis;
4. Findings and conclusions, with connections to the relevant literature
5. Clear writing appropriate for a wide audience, following Teacher Education Quarterly guidelines
