Original Manuscripts
The Center's aims to publish original work, especially reports of empirical studies, that address issues of rural mathematics education. Financial support is no longer available, as a rule. Manuscripts receive professional copyediting before publication in the Center's Working Papers series. Authors retain copyright and are encouraged to submit manuscripts to suitable peer-reviewed journals.The Center also seeks articles for the Rural Mathematics Educator on-line magazine. We are particularly interested to review thoughtful articles (1000-2000 words) by math teachers working in rural schools, especially those who regard the Center's outlook as interesting.Those who contribute original manuscripts--whether teachers, journalists, or university researchers--become ACCLAIM schoars.
This section provides intellectual resources to help researchers develop and publish studies of mathematics education in the rural circumstance. We provide:
Most studies about math education in rural schooling examine generic issues with a sample that just happens to be rural–and most often, the methods, results, and interpretations have little or nothing to do with rural issues, challenges, dilemmas, or unacknowledged advantages.
