For this ESCO IJTME-SI, we welcome extended versions of papers presented in the "Computers and ICT in Mathematics Education" minisymposium at ESCO 2016.

 

Format
 
It is essential that submissions to be considered for publication in The International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education conform to the details set out below. The file SamplePaper.doc has been included as a template.

A brief biographical note on the author(s) and the address for correspondence (electronic and postal) must be included. 

1. Contributions must use Microsoft Word or Word Compatible documents.

3. The length of the papers must not exceed 8 pages when in the standard IJTME format. The SamplePaper.doc contains just over 4000 words as well diagrams.
4. The submission should be written in standard English. Straightforward language is preferred to the obscure or complex. The use of complex statistical evidence is not considered to be intrinsically valuable.

7. Each illustration (figure or table) must be of sufficiently high quality.  The position of each illustration in the text should be made clear and should have an explanatory legend or title.
8. References should be listed in alphabetical order at the end of the paper. For different examples, see the file IJTME_authors_notes_references.pdf.

Submission procedure
 
The International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education (IJTME) welcomes the opportunity to publish papers from ESCO 2016 Conference. One issue will be set aside and will contain up to 8 papers. The papers for the special edition will be subject to a maximum length of 8 pages.

Please, first of all, send to José Luis Galán García at jl_galan@uma.es an e-mail stating your intention of sending a proposal for the Special Issue as soon as possible but not later than July 20th. Please, indicate in the mail the title of the talk given at ESCO 2016 and the page in the book of abstracts for which you will send an extended version of the talk as a proposal for the Special Issue.

When sending your proposal, please provide in the mail body the data of three suggested referees who are not in any ethical conflict but who are ready to review your paper quickly. We cannot promise that all of them will be contacted but some of them probably will. The length of the review process of your paper depends almost exclusively on referees. If too many referees decline reviewing your paper, the process will be delayed.

ESCO IJTME-SI is now open. In order to speed up the review process, remember to send your contribution to be reviewed by an English-speaking native person before submiting it. In order to submit your proposal, you have to attach and send it to jl_galan@uma.es (and do not forget to provide the data of three suggested referees).

The dead line for submissions is September 30th.

Provisional time line

September 30th 2016 –> Papers submissions deadline.
