Journals

  • Published biannually, Schools: Studies in Education is a refereed international education journal for pre K-12 educators, administrators, university professors, and others who work with school-aged students. Schools gives writers and readers a rare space to explore, through stories and their related commentaries, the more dynamic and complex experiences of school life in ways that convey how human relationships, thoughts, and emotions shape their meaning of educational experience in schools. http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/toc/schools/current
