The Nebraska Educator - A Student-Led Journal
Mission statement:
The Nebraska Educator is an open access peer-reviewed academic education journal at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This journal is produced by UNL graduate students and publishes articles on a broad range of education topics that are timely and relevant in education (all levels). We seek original research that covers topics such as:
Curriculum, teaching and professional development
Education policy, practice and analysis
Literacy, language and culture
School, society and reform
Teaching and learning with technologies
Goals:
The Nebraska Educator has four main goals with its published research: 1) to familiarize students with the process of publication, 2) to facilitate dialogue between emerging scholars, educators, and the larger community, 3) to promote collegiality and interdisciplinary awareness, and 4) to establish a mechanism for networking and collaboration.
