Submission Guidelines Appropriateness of Topic for JOLE Articles
should relate to both leadership and education, and shouldbe balanced
in their focus and emphasizing leadership and education. If
you are uncertain about the appropriateness of your topic please review
previous issue found in the JOLE archives link. Previous Publication, Journal Review, and Conference Presentation JOLE does not accept submittals published previously or under review by another journal. By submitting their manuscript authors agree that the work has not been published and is not under review by any other journal. Submission of manuscripts previously published in ALE proceedings is acceptable. Similarly, prior presentation at a conference or concurrent consideration for presentation does not disqualify a manuscript from submission to JOLE. Submitting an Article to JOLE Papers are received by email only, sent to Dr. Christine D. Townsend, Editor at leader@tamu.edu. All submittals must be sent as a Word file with a cover memo indicating authors, affiliation, contact, proposed category, and confirmation of non-reiew status (see Previous Publication above). Categories of Papers for JOLE The
journal solicits articles in four categories:
Please
focus your article on a specific category and indicate with your cover
email. Complete information
about the categories is provided at Categories
of Articles. Review Process Upon receipt of your paper the editor will send notice of receipt to the contact author. The editor will review the submittal for suitability for the journal and specific category. If not suitable the editor will provide guidance for the author. If suitable, members of the editorial board, or selected guest referees, will review the submittal. How to Prepare to Write an Article for JOLE A proven strategy is to review past issues of JOLE and read articles in the same category. First time authors are encouraged to closely review, even outline, other papers to understand the logic and flow of an acceptable paper in each category. Write for a Professional and Academic Audience JOLE articles are intended to demonstrate scholarship but are also expected to be readable and useful to a wide audience, including people who speak English as a second language. Hence, they must be written clearly without losing their scholarly value. See Writing/Style Guidelines for more ideas. |
