CONTRIBUTING SUBMISSIONS
ARTICLES
The History Teacher publishes articles of three general types:
- Reports on promising new classroom techniques, educational programs, curricula, and methods of evaluating instructional effectiveness.
- Analyses of important interpretations, leading historians, historiographical problems, and recent trends in specific fields of historical research.
- Critical review essays on audiovisiual materials, textbooks, and other secondary works suitable for classroom use.
*Briefer items presenting ideas about teaching techniques, announcing conferences or workshops for history teachers, and the like, appear in the Society for History Education's newsletter, Network New Exchange, published each spring and fall as a part of Perspectives, a publication of the American Historical Association.
REVIEWS
The History Teacher also publishes reviews of audiovisual materials, textbooks, supplementary
readers, and other printed classroom materials, with evaluations
of their scholarly reliability, formats, and effectiveness of
presentation. Reviews are commissioned in advance. Readers interested
in contributing reviews should contact the Reviews Editor (listed
below) with their qualifications and fields of specialization.
SPECIFICATIONS
The History Teacher does not have its own style sheet. Contributors should follow
the forms of citation customary in the historical profession.
Manuscripts must be double spaced (including all quotations and
end notes), and submitted in triplicate, along with a diskette
of the file in a word processing format that should be specified
in a cover letter. Article authors are encouraged to supply or
recommend illustrations that would enhance the effectiveness of
their work in print. Final decisions on manuscripts usually require
a minimum of 10-15 weeks. We cannot return articles which have
not been accepted unless a self-addressed, stamped envelope is
enclosed with the article. The editors, who are the final judges
of matters concerning grammar, usage, and other conventions, will
edit contributions to conform to the normal manner of presentation
in The History Teacher.
Manuscripts prepared on electronic word processing devices can dramatically improve the speed and accuracy of text handling. The History Teacher can accept many popular word processing formats. Contributors should indicate at the time of first (hard copy) submission if their manuscripts are available in electronic form, identifying the word processing programs and the types of machine upon which the manuscripts can be received in electronic form by The History Teacher.
The Society for History Education affirms that it does not discriminate
on the basis of race, religion, national origin, age, or sex.
