Submission Guidelines

Manuscript Format

Manuscripts should be single-spaced, with 1/2-inch margins on all sides, typed in 12-point, Times New Roman font and follow the latest edition of the APA style guide. Manuscripts should be submitted in MS Word. Please embed any images or photos within your manuscript. Include an image of the authors and the authors bios within the document. To increase the likelyhood that the manuscript will be published, please include charts, tables, or images that are appropriate to the article as well. 

Manuscript Submission

Manuscripts should be submitted to within the form , and questions about the manuscripts may be sent to Dr. Becky Gammill (gammillgctm@gmail.com). Manuscripts are accepted for consideration with the understanding that they have not been published previously and are not being considered simultaneously for publication elsewhere. Along with your submission, you must also include an author bio and photograph that will accompany your piece within Reflections.

Manuscript Publication

When a manuscript is accepted for publication, the editor/journal reviewers may make suggestions or revisions in consultation with the principal author. However, because of publication deadlines, the editor reserves the right to make minor revisions without seeking prior approval from the author. Release statements for all copyrighted materials must be received prior to publication. If student work or images are used within your submission, make sure to include the proper release forms from your school district so that those materials may be included with your work.

We accept submissions of various types and lengths. Please look at previous issues of Reflections to get an idea of how long or short a piece should be. The following lengths are flexible, but recommended.

  • Teacher Reflections: 1 – 3 pages.
  • Lesson: 4 – 6 pages (including references, resources, and teacher keys.)
  • Research: 6 – 10 pages. Longer studies may shorted or broken up into smaller pieces for sequential publication releases.
