CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS:

FacultyShack hopes to include our readers in the dialogue we have started.  Please tell us what you think about the publication in general or about the ideas in any of the specific articles. Each piece will be accompanied by a "comment" button with which you can submit your response, and following each article we will publish a selection of the responses we receive. We hope these letters will provide an extended and ongoing yet focused conversation about the issues and questions we encounter daily. 

We also welcome your manuscripts for publication.  We have no strict parameters around article topics (mullet haircuts and multicultural literature--do you see a theme here?).  We are looking for thoughtful and/or funny articles about new teaching ideas, the state of education, specific curriculum area concerns, or observations on students, teachers or administrators.  Please remember you are writing for a community of educators, so articles questioning the ability of standardized tests to measure a student's academic promise would not be useful. 


Submissions Guidelines:
  • Please submit your manuscript (as a text file) electronically to submissions@facultyshack.org

  • Please double space and include your name, address, email address, phone number, and school affiliation on the manuscript.

  • Your article should not be something that you have published elsewhere, so please include a statement to that effect. FacultyShack holds the rights to the article while it is on our site, but authors have full right to pull articles from the site (after the following issue comes out) or reprint in other places. We would appreciate it, however, if reprinted articles acknowledge their prior appearance in FacultyShack.

  • We will reply immediately to let you know that we have received your manuscript.

  • Decisions about inclusion in the publication could take four to six weeks.  We may also hold manuscripts for consideration in future issues of FacultyShack.

  • Published first-time authors get a free (and fine looking) FacultyShack T-shirt. Now, what academic journal offers that?
