About the journal
Educational developments and reforms are taking place throughout the world in both the formal and non-formal sectors, often because of the impact of globalisation and pressures from international aid agencies: developments in literacy and adult education; issues relating to gender and equity; programmes of vocational education and skill training; new developments in curriculum provision and teaching, in teacher education, in the economics of education, in planning and in new approaches to the finance and administration of educational systems.
It is the purpose of the International Journal of Educational Development to bring these developments to the attention of professionals in the field of education, with particular focus upon issues and problems of concern to those in the Third World. Concrete information, of interest to planners, practitioners and researchers, is presented in the form of articles, case studies and research reports.
Instructions to Authors
Guide for Authors
1. Papers submitted to the International Journal of Educational Development should represent original materials in the field of educational development, not previously published or under consideration for publication elsewhere.
2. Papers should be submitted to Professor Keith Watson, Editor-in-Chief, Faculty of Education and Community Studies, University of Reading, Bulmershe Court, Earley, Reading, RG6 1HY, UK.
3. Manuscripts must be typed in double spacing on one side of the paper only, and contain wide margins. Three copies of each paper should be submitted. These will not be returned unless accompanied by a large stamped, addressed envelope. A short abstract of no more than 100 words should immediately precede the Introduction. Authors should include up to six key words with their article. The controlled list of key words is based on the ERIC list of index descriptors and includes: comparative education; international education; development; literacy; educational policy; curriculum; educational administration. In addition, authors may include one or two 'free' words if they wish to do so. Proofs will be sent for correction to the first-named author unless otherwise indicated on the manuscript, and this author's full postal address must appear on the first page of the manuscript. Authors are fully responsible for the correction of typographical errors; any additional alterations to the proofs may be charged to the author. Authors are urged, therefore, to prepare their manuscripts in accordance with these notes to avoid delay in publication. The original manuscript and figures will be discarded one month after publication unless the Publisher is requested to return original material to the author.
4. Submission of manuscript on disk: Authors are encouraged to submit a computer disk (CD-Rom or diskette) containing the final version of the paper along with the final manuscript to the editorial office. Please observe the following criteria:
(a) Send only hard copy when first submitting your paper.
(b) When your paper has been refered, revised if necessary and accepted, send a disk containing the final version with the final hard copy. Make sure that the disk and the hard copy match exactly.
(c) Specify what software was used, including which release (e.g. WordPerfect 5.1).
(d) Specify what computer was used (either IBM compatible PC or Apple Macintosh).
(e) Text, tables, and illustrations (if available on disk) should be supplied as separate files.
(f) The file should follow the general instructions on style/arrangement and, in particular, the reference style.
(g) The file should use the wrap-around end-of-line feature (i.e. no returns at the end of each line). All textual elements should begin flush left, no paragraph indents. Place two returns after every element such as title, headings, paragraphs, figure and table callouts.
(h) Keep a back-up disk for reference and safety.
5. All necessary illustrations should accompany the typescript and should be on separate sheets. All photographs, diagrams and charts should be referred to as figures and given Arabic numerals numbered consecutively in the order in which they appear in the text. Figure legends must be typed together on a separate sheet at the end of the paper, and should make the meaning of the figure intelligible without reference to the text. Line diagrams, graphs and charts should be drawn in black Indian ink on good quality white paper, to approximately twice the final size required. Line diagrams submitted in a form unsuitable for direct reproduction will be redrawn by the Publisher with consequent delay. Half-tones for publication must be good quality, original glossy prints, and should be included only if absolutely essential.
Submit colour illustrations as original photographs, high-quality computer prints or transparencies, close to the size expected in publication, or as 35 mm slides. Polaroid colour prints are not suitable. Further information concerning colour illustrations and costs is available from Author Support (authorsupport@elsevier.com)
If, together with your accepted article, you submit usable colour figures then Elsevier will ensure, at no additional charge, that these figures will appear in colour on the web (e.g., ScienceDirect and other sites) regardless of whether or not these illustrations are reproduced in colour in the printed version. For colour reproduction in print, you will receive information regarding the costs from Elsevier after receipt of your accepted article. For further information on the preparation of electronic artwork, please seehttp://authors.elsevier.com/artwork.
6. Tables should be kept to the minimum and include only essential detail. They should be given Arabic numerals and referred to in the text.
7. References in the text should be quoted as follows: Smith and Brown (1969) or (Smith, 1980). References for three or more authors are given as Smith et al. (1980). Full references should be typed in double spacing at the end of the paper in alphabetical order, in the form given below:
Journal references
Maxwell, W. (1982) Games children play. International Journal of Educational Development 1, 29-48.
Book references
Jones, J. B. (1980) Teaching in Botswana. In TeachingOverseas, ed. J. Smith, Vol. 2. pp. 2-6. Educational Press. New York.
8. All footnotes and notes which are not merely references should be typed together on a separate sheet at the end of the text.
9. Twenty-five reprints of each paper will be supplied free of charge. Additional copies can be purchased using the order form sent with the proofs.
10. Contributors are reminded that the language and content of papers should be non-sexist. (a) The notion that 'man' is a generic term which includes women is now unacceptable; thus when reference is to both sexes, 'man' and 'men' should be avoided. Alternatives are 'person', 'people', human beings' or 'men and women'. The use of 'he' and 'him' can be avoided in most cases by using plural forms 'they' or 'their'. Examples of non-sexist formulations are:
The child ... he
Man's achievements
Headmasters
Administrators often neglect their wives
Children ... they
Human achievements, people's achievements
Headteachers, Heads, Principals
Administrators often neglect their spouses/families
(b) In empirical research reports the gender breakdown of the research sample should be given and acknowledged in discussion. Generalising from a single-sex group or from a heavily unbalanced group to 'youth', 'children' or 'teachers' should be done with extreme caution.
11. All authors must sign the 'Transfer of Copyright' agreement before the article can be published. This transfer agreement enables Elsevier Ltd to protect the copyrighted material for the authors, but does not relinquish the author's proprietary rights. The copyright transfer covers the exclusive rights to reproduce and distribute the article, including reprints, photographic reproductions, microform or any other reproductions of similar nature and translations, and includes the right to adapt the article for use in conjunction with computer systems and programs, including reproduction or publication in machine-readable form and incorporation in retrieval systems. Authors are responsible for obtaining from the copyright holder permission to reproduce any figures for which copyright exists.
12. Preparation of supplementary data. Elsevier now accepts electronic supplementary material to support and enhance your scientific research. Supplementary files offer the author additional possibilities to publish supporting applications, movies, animation sequences, high-resolution images, background datasets, sound clips and more. Supplementary files supplied will be published online alongside the electronic version of your article in Elsevier web products, including ScienceDirect:http://www.sciencedirect.com. In order to ensure that your submitted material is directly usable, please ensure that data is provided in one of our recommended file formats. Authors should submit the material in electronic format together with the article and supply a concise and descriptive caption for each file.
