We are currently sending out a call for submissions for volume 18. 2 of the Annual Review of Education, Communication, and Language Sciences (ARECLS). This is an electronic journal published annually by the School of Education, Communication, and Language Sciences (ECLS) at the University of Newcastle, United Kingdom. The ISSN number is: 1743-159X. ARECLS is a refereed journal, and it is now indexed in EBSCO, DOAJ, Index Copernicus, and Open J-Gate.

About the Journal:

The aim of the journal is to publish outstanding research by current and recently graduated research students and academics in the School of Education, Communication, and Language Sciences. This, in turn, aims to help facilitate the transition of contributors, from research students to academics, within the international university system. One of the criteria for examiners of doctoral theses to consider is whether a thesis contains material of publishable quality. It can, therefore, be an advantage for doctoral students to go through the process of publication before the submission of their thesis. Students are also welcome to submit articles for publication once they have gained their doctorate.

The journal publishes a variety of literature types through the entire range of research conducted in the School of ECLS, in the areas of 'Education', 'Communication', and 'Language Sciences'. The journal is particularly interested in work at the intersection of these three aforementioned disciplines. This year, we have successfully published ARECLS volume 18.1 along with a special edition that considered the theme of ‘Intervention and Research Practice. Both volumes can be accessed on our current volume page. 

We are keen for ECLS staff and students to submit:

- Emprical investigations

- Progress reports of research

- Updates about innovations in your discipline

- Book reviews

- Topic overviews’ (e.g. discussions of methodology, and/or debates ongoing in your field) 

- Interviews with colleagues in your academic area

We aim to be flexible while still maintaining integrity regarding the quality of a submission. We are especially keen to see original student work. If you are not sure about your work’s suitability, please contact ARECLS: arecls@newcastle.ac.uk. Further details on submission criteria can be found on our submissions and guidelines pages. Submissions to the journal are reviewed by the Editorial Board, consisting of academics and research students, using a critical process of blind peer review. Please see our guidelines for journal manuscripts page for more information. If you are interested in seeing previous accepted submissions, and the previous versions of our journal, we recommend visiting our archive page.
