Call for papers for The Philosophy of Mathematics Education Journal, no. 29

This journal is published approximately once a year and submissions for the next issue are solicited. Please contact the editor Paul Ernest directly via the email address p.ernest at ex.ac.uk with submissions or queries. This free-to-access journal is widely read world-wide by students and researchers in mathematics education and adjacent areas and received well over 100,000 hits in total (with individual issues receiving up to 10,000 hits) before the hit counters were removed. Past issues can be viewed at http://www.people.ex.ac.uk/PErnest/ http://www.people.ex.ac.uk/PErnest/

Articles are sought that are either theory or concept rich contributions to mathematics education research or that have a philosophical slant or contribution. This can be papers on philosophical aspects of mathematics (e.g., the ethics, ontology, aesthetics, epistemology or other philosophical perspectives of mathematics), or reflections on or contributions to mathematics education from such philosophical perspectives. Contributions bringing sociological, linguistic, anthropological, psychological, political, humanistic, spiritual or historical perspectives to bear on mathematics or mathematics education are potentially acceptable too.

Contributions are welcomed from students of mathematics education, philosophy of mathematics or related disciplines, as well as faculty, staff, and others -- from relative newcomers to established researchers. The journal also welcomes relevant articles, conference papers that have already been published if you wish to reach a wider or different audience (provided you clear copyright), as well as relevant postgraduate assignments, dissertations or theses. The journal leaves copyright ownership in the hands of its authors.

A new section is planned to include lectures in powerpoint, PDF or other accessible formats to share presentations that may or may not have been written up as full papers but provide a quick overview of a perspective or argument. Please consider sending in your presentations for this experimental section.

It is planned to publish The Philosophy of Mathematics Education Journal no. 29 in the Summer of 2015 (Northern hemisphere). There are no tight formatting rules. Please model submissions on standard academic paper conventions so that they look similar to past papers.

Best wishes

Paul
