About the journal
Description:
The International Journal of Music Education (IJME) is published three times a year. Each issue has a special focus.
Research (April) comprises scholarly reports that enhance knowledge regarding the teaching and learning of music with a special interest toward an international constituency and of interest and relevance to the international community.
Showcase (August) includes special focus issues on topics or themes that ISME believes are important to air internationally, keynote presentations from ISME World Conferences and other important articles of a broad nature, or articles, debates and commentaries which involve work being undertaken in ISME Commissions.
Practice (December) publishes articles relevant to advancing the practice of music teaching and learning at all age levels with issues of direct concern to the classroom or studio, in school and out, private and group instruction.

Aims and Scope:
The purpose of the Journal is to publish (in the English language) articles, reviews and scholarly comment which have been judged worthy of publication by appropriate specialists and accepted by the Editor on studies relating to music education by which is understood:
The International Journal of Music Education is the official journal of the International Society for Music Education. It is designed to publish articles across a wide range of literature on music education including materials relevant to teaching and learning at all levels, in all forms, in all contexts, and from pre-primary to higher and lifelong music education. IJME aims to recognise and address what is useful, innovative and relevant to an international community of practitioners, researchers and practitioner-researchers whose voices, whether heard as soloists or in choruses, constitute a dialogue about new possibilities for advancing theory and practice.
2. The Journal will be international in the sense that it will seek, wherever possible, to publish material from authors with an international reputation and articles that are of interest to an international audience.
3. In pursuit of the above the journal shall:
(i) draw on and include high quality work from the international community of scholars including those in the major countries of Europe, Australasia, the United States, other parts of the Americas, countries in the Third World and elsewhere with due representation for considerations of the readership. The Journal shall include work representing the major areas of interest in contemporary research on music education.
(ii) avoid bias in favour of the interests of particular schools or directions of research or particular political or narrow disciplinary objectives to the exclusion of others;
(iii) ensure that articles are written in a terminology and style which makes them intelligible, not merely within the context of a particular discipline or abstract mode, but across the domain of relevant disciplines.
Instructions to Authors
NOTES FOR CONTRIBUTORS
All quantitative articles must conform to the Publications Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition, 2001). Nonquantitative articles may conform to APA style, The Chicago Manual of Style (14th edition, 1993), or A Manual of Writers of Term Papers, Theses, and Dissertations, K. L.

Contributors can usually expect a decision concerning the acceptability of a manuscript for publication within three months after receipt. Accepted articles will appear in the order in which they were accepted as publication space allows in the IJME.

2. The Editor will acknowledge manuscripts upon receipt. All manuscripts will be sent out by the editor for anonymous editorial review by members of the IJME Editorial Committee (and/or to invited reviewers in special circumstances, such as submissions in languages not represented on the Committee). To preserve anonymity in the review process, the manuscript and abstract should contain no clues to the author's identity or institutional affiliation (they should appear only on the title paper which will not be sent out).

6. If the paper is accepted for publication, a copy of the final version will be required on disk, preferably in a PC-compatible format. The author is responsible for ensuring that the final hard copy and the diskette versions are identical.
7. Tables. You should present tables in your manuscript typed double-spaced on separate sheets and containing only horizontal rules. Each table needs a short descriptive title above it. Column headings should clearly define the data presented. All tables must be cited in the text.

They should be numbered consecutively and presented in a form suitable for immediate reproduction (i.e. not requiring redrawing), each on a separate A4 sheet.

The names of all authors should be given in the reference list.
11. Language and terminology. Jargon or unnecessary technical language should be avoided. Language that might be deemed sexist or racist should not be used.
