This is a new on-line journal. The focus is in the area of art education
and technology, but submissions related to access to images and archives
of visual art materials, as well as research on images will be
considered.

CALL FOR MANUSCRIPTS

Currents: Journal of Technology in Art Education

The Board of Directors of the Electronic Media Interest Group announces
a call for manuscripts to be published in a new refereed electronic
journal on technology in art education. Authors are invited to submit
manuscripts which discuss, clarify and expand upon theories and
practices involving technological applications in the field of art
education. Manuscripts should be suited to a diverse audience of art
educators and fit into one or more of the following categories:
qualitative or quantitative research reports, contributions to theory,
innovative program descriptions, commentary, exemplary or experimental
web sites, or model instructional units involving technology.
Manuscripts which deal with uses of new technology to encourage teacher
professional development or student collaboration and learning in the
visual arts (either in a traditional classroom or at a distance) are
encouraged.

General Guidelines:

Traditional text-based manuscripts should be no longer than 3,000 words
(or 12 double-spaced pages), and should conform to guidelines set out in
the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 4th
edition (or higher). References to internet sources should conform to
guidelines set forth in Li. X., & Crane, N. (1993), Electronic Style: A
guide to citing electronic information. Westport: Meckler. Tables,
figures and images should be submitted in PICT, GIF or JPEG Format.
Contact the editor for guidelines concerning the size, length and
submission of non-traditional materials and presentations. All
submissions will receive a blind review. Additional information
concerning submission guidelines can be seen at:

regarding the content or submission of a manuscript should be directed
to the editor, Craig Roland, at ROL1851@nervm.nerdc.ufl.edu or by
telephone at (352) 392-9165.

To submit a manuscript for review, send a copy of it on disk (MAC or PC)
