JOURNAL OF THE SOUTH PACIFIC EDUCATORS IN VISION IMPAIRMENT (JSPEVI)
CALL FOR PAPERS (2009 Issue)
Original manuscripts and news items are sought for the fourth issue of the Journal of the South Pacific Educators in Vision Impairment. The journal presents essays, quantitative and qualitative research articles and analyses, conceptual papers, comprehensive reviews, case studies, policy analyses and innovative practice descriptions and evaluations as well as perspectives and opinions on:
A wide variety of issues and topics related to the education of
children, youth and adults in the South Pacific region who are blind
or have vision impairments.
It is intended that the journal will be useful to a much wider audience than researchers. The focus of all articles appearing in the journal will be upon their implications for practice.
It is intended that the journal will be a vehicle for informing other researchers, educational administrators, Commonwealth and State personnel and service providers, as well as specialist and generic teachers, parents and others in our communities about research, issues, policies and their implications for practice in the South Pacific Region (Australia, New Zealand, parts of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands).
Editors are:
- Dr Gillian Gale, Vision Impairment Consultant, Melbourne,
- Dr Paul Pagliano, Senior Lecturer, Faculty of Education, James Cook University,
- Ms Fran Gentle, RIDBC Renwick Centre, and
- Dr Mike Steer, RIDBC Renwick Centre.
There is an impressive Editorial Advisory Panel for the Journal. All submissions will undergo blind peer review.
Having this issue will depend on the number of high calibre submissions. To enable timely review and manuscript revision, it would be appreciated if authors could submit manuscripts in print and on disk for review no later than 30 August, 2008
Manuscripts should be sent to:
