MJE VOLUME 42 NUMBER 1 IS NOW ON LINE

Please circulate far and wide.
Apologies for cross-posting.
Dear colleague,
After 42 years as a subscriber-funded, print journal, the McGill Journal of Education is now online, open-access, and free at http://mje.mcgill.ca/.
Please visit our site and register as a reader (and reviewer, if you are willing). The Table of Contents for 42.1 is below.
This evolution in our practice and presence reflects a number of commitments from McGill's Faculty of Education and the MJE's Editorial Board. First, we support the open-access movement that is currently transforming the academic publishing world. Digital technology makes it possible for us to realize our conviction that knowledge should be widely and easily available, particularly knowledge produced for no financial gain by academics in tax-supported institutions. Second, we believe that journals have a duty to seek out the widest possible readership for the authors they publish. Again, the technology now provides opportunities for us to carry out that conviction. Third, we hope to use hypertext technology to situate the MJE in the immense web of internet knowledge. The intertextuality manifest in the bibliographies of print articles can now become immediate, alive, and multimodal. Finally, the online MJE allows us to decrease our impact on the environment by reducing our use of paper and doing without the transportation needed to move print journals from McGill to subscribers.
We remain committed to high quality scholarship in English and French, and will continue to send manuscripts to at least two reviewers. We invite you to consider submitting manuscripts to us, with a new and broader readership in mind. With our presence online, we expect and hope to attract both academics and non-academics, and we are asking authors to write for a thoughtful, concerned, but perhaps non-specialist reader - one who might need slightly more background or context than scholars in your field, and possibly some definitions for key words.
Please circulate this note to colleagues in your own institution and beyond who might be interested in reading and writing for the MJE. And contact me
([log in to unmask]) if you have questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions.
