November 20, 2023
West’s Education Law Reporter is currently calling on authors to submit the following types of papers:
- Commentaries: In-depth articles of approximately 20-35 pages on a court opinion or topic of special interest in education law, empirical studies, public policy essays or scholarly essays on a legal standard. All commentaries are subject to a peer review process.
- Education Law Into Practice: Concise, to-the-point papers of approximately 10-20 pages on topics in education law that are important to practitioners, scholars, and attorneys, including practical and useful checklists, charts, sample forms, model policies, sample memoranda, sample documents, procedural guidelines, brief case notes, and short articles. All ELIP articles are subject to a modified peer review process.
- Book Reviews: Reviews of 6-8 pages summarizing the content of books of interest to consumers of education law and evaluating how well the authors have succeeded at their task. Although book reviews are not peer-reviewed, they are evaluated by the editors to ensure they meet all requirements.
If you are interested in submitting an article to the Reporter please email me at allan_osborne@verizon.net. I will send you the complete guidelines.
