Contemporary Issues in Early Childhood (CIEC) is a peer-reviewed international online-only research journal. The journal publishes original articles, colloquia, and book reviews. Papers accepted for publication become the copyright of the Journal, unless otherwise specifically agreed upon. All contributions should be original and once submitted manuscripts should not presently be under consideration for publication elsewhere. Authors should be aware that they are writing for an international audience and should use non-discriminatory language. Articles for consideration should be sent by email attachment to CIEC@qut.edu.au Books for review should be sent to Professor Susan Grieshaber, School of Early Childhood, Queensland University of Technology, Victoria Park Road, Kelvin Grove, Queensland 4059, Australia.
Colloquium Call for reviewers of manuscripts TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS Manuscripts should be submitted as files on disk, or as email attachments in RTF (Rich Text Format), but any major word-processor is acceptable. Please do not over-format the manuscript with the word-processor as this impedes the publication process. The author's name and affiliation should appear at the beginning of the article, together with full postal and email addresses. This should be followed by a short description of their current position and research/teaching interests. When submitting articles authors should add a statement confirming that the text is original and has not been published or submitted elsewhere. It is essential that an Abstract (100-200 words) be provided for each article. Figures and tables should have their positions marked clearly and be provided on separate pages. Figure numbers should be shown as Arabic numerals, table numbers as Latin numerals. Headings and sub-headings should be clearly distinguished. References should be provided in the text with the authors name followed by the year in brackets, for example: Yelland & Grieshaber (1998). If a direct quote is used the page number will need to be added. For example; Yelland & Grieshaber (1998, p. 13). All material/works cited in the article need to be included in an alphabetical reference list at the end. Please use the following style: Book Article in a journal Chapter in a book Online documents When first mentioned, acronyms should be preceded by the title in full. Journal titles should not be abbreviated. Footnotes should not be used. Endnotes need to be located in the text by numbers within square brackets ([1], [2] etc) as normal-size numbers/brackets and not as superscripts. Proofs will be sent in PDF format to the author designated to receive them, and should be corrected and returned immediately to the Editors. Contributors will be notified when the article has been published on the Journal's website. Please contact our publishers (info@symposium-journals.co.uk) if you have any questions or need further information about the preparation of word-processed documents for publication. |
