Journal Details
Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education
Instructions for Authors
Further information about the journal including links to the online sample copy and contents pages can be found on the journal homepage.
The Editors invite submission of papers covering all aspects of teacher education. Papers will not be considered if they have been published previously or are being considered for publication elsewhere.
All submissions should be made online at the Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education Manuscript Central site. New users should first create an account. Once a user is logged onto the site submissions should be made via the Author Centre.
Authors should prepare their documents in Word, and upload two versions of their manuscript. One should be a complete text, while in the second all document information identifying the author should be removed from files to allow them to be sent anonymously to referees. When uploading files authors will then be able to define the non-anonymous version as “File not for review”.
- Manuscripts should be typed double-spaced on one side of the paper, with generous margins all round. Single-spaced manuscripts will not be considered for publication.
- For anonymity in the reviewing process, authors' names, affiliations, postal addresses and telephone numbers should appear on a separate covering page.
- An abstract of approximately 150 words should accompany each manuscript.
- Manuscripts should conform to the style of papers published in the Asia-Pacific Journal of Teacher Education.
- Manuscripts should be no longer than 6,000 words.
