The editors of the ISEP 2010 Yearbook, a refereed online publication of educational planning issues, invites the submission of original manuscripts for publication consideration. The ISEP 2010 Yearbook is the official publication of the International Society for Educational Planning. The audience of the publication includes national and provincial/state planners, university faculty, school district administrators and planners, and other practitioners associated with educational planning.
The purpose of the publication is to serve as a meeting place for scholar-researcher and the practitioner-educator through the presentation of articles that have practical relevance to current issues and that broaden the knowledge base of the discipline. The ISEP Yearbook disseminates the results of pertinent educational research, presents contemporary ideas for consideration, and provides general information to assist subscribers with their professional responsibilities.
Manuscripts preferred for inclusion are those from practitioners, reports of empirical research, expository writings including analyses of topical problems, or case studies. Papers presented at the 2010 ISEP Conference will be given first consideration.
