Re: [Phys-l] teaching and learning journals

We . . .[ISETL (2006)]. . . are working on compiling a list of education journals with an online presences (i.e., either entirely online or have a website that addresses purpose and submission). At present we have about 200 journals in the database. We've just started the project, so we are missing a lot of information and journals...in time...in time...

DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

I suggest that ISETL might consider adding to its list of education journals with an online presences:

(a) James Rhem's great "National Teaching and Learning Forum" [NTLF (2006)] - the February 2006 issue is now available and includes the free "Do Engineering Faculty Know What's Broken" [Goel (2006)], and "Nutrition for Neurons-Firing Up Fractal Networks: Educating in Fractal Patterns XV" [Nuhfer (2006)];

(b) American Journal of Physics [AJP (2006)]: includes many Physics Education Research articles, e.g., most recently Lorenzo et al.(2006); and

(c) Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research [PRST-PER (2006)]: a FREE peer reviewed electronic-only journal, with PER pioneer Robert Beichner as editor and Nobel Laureate Carl Wieman as Chair of the Editorial Board.

For a listing of many FREE, scholarly, peer-reviewed electronic journals in education see AERA-SIG-COR (2006).

In my posts "Re: Symposium on Copyright at a Crossroads" [Hake (2006a,b,c)], I argued - even despite the naysayers - for recognition of the "fair use" [CLS (2006)] provision of U.S. Copyright law. Consistent with my position, I note that AERA SIG (Communication of Research) supports the "Budapest Open Access Initiative" <http://www.soros.org/openaccess/>.
