Week 4 Publishing/Leadership Project


(Image from http://www.aace.org/pubs/)


I decided to submit a publication article to the AACE (Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education). I fell in love with this association and its user friendly website. I love how they try to get educators to network via all sorts of social media platforms. I like that they are also linked to an online digital library, displaying that the topics are limitless. The topic of my action research project fits in well with their publication. As this is my first ever article submission, I also like the breakdown of how I am to submit my paper, followed by what to expect. As I was researching where to publish my article  I felt like I was getting a run-around on some of the journal submission websites. There seemed to be a “click here,”  “confirm then,” “log back in and click this.” I want to know that my hard work is going to actually be looked at and not lost in a shuffle. The AACE seems like a great fit for sharing my action research project. Their audience could certainly use my AR project as a stepping stone for further research.

  1. I am interested to find out more about your publisher. How long did it take for you to find a publisher you felt comfortable with? I feel my research may also fit well into what you are doing. The only thing I don't like is writing, its not my best skill. What guidlines do you follow when u write? I believe that your research will be a stepping stone, and possibly if you continue in your research, it might also provide innovation into new ways of instruction, or the adoption of modern ways of learning.
