Author Guidelines

The International Journal for the History of Mathematics Education publishes research articles, notes, and book reviews. All papers should be written in English, typed double-spaced, and must conform to the style specified in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed). The following format is to be used for bibliographical information:

Periodical:
Author, A.A., Author, B.B., & Author, C.C. (2006). Title of article. Title of periodical, xx, xxx-xxx.

Nonperiodical:
Author, A.A. (2006). Title of work. Location: Publisher.

Part of a nonperiodical (e.g. book chapter):
Author, A.A., & Author, B.B. (2006). Title of chapter. In A.Editor, B.Editor, & C.Editor (Eds.), Title of book (pp. xxx-xxx). Location: Publisher.

In all cases, authors' first names may be given in full (if this seems significant). For example:
Author, Alexander A. (2006). Title of work. Location: Publisher.
The Journal does not accept articles that have been previously published or are being simultaneously considered for publication by other periodicals.
Research articles should be submitted with the author's name, affiliation, address, and e-mail address on a separate page to ensure anonymity in the reviewing process and should begin with an abstract of about 100 words on a separate page. The expected length of a research paper is 15–25 pages, not counting the cover page, abstract, references, tables, and figures. Figures should be submitted in a camera ready form. Once a research paper is accepted for publication, one more abstract of about 100 words in any language of the author's choice other than English may also be submitted.
Notes may be devoted to such topics as indicating new sources of information or discussing various questions of importance to the research community and should not exceed 5 pages. Book reviews must be no longer than 2–3 pages.


For an initial submission to the Journal one hard copy and a diskette with the manuscript saved in rich text format should be mailed to Alexander Karp, IJHME, Program in Mathematics, Box 210, Teachers College, Columbia University, 525 West 120th Street, New York, NY, 10027, USA. Another copy of the manuscript (with all figures and tables) saved as a Microsoft Word document should be e-mailed as an attachment to ijhmteaching@yahoo.com.

 

Submission Preparation Checklist

  1. The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  2. The submission file is in Microsoft Word, RTF, or WordPerfect document file format.
  3. All URL addresses in the text (e.g., http://www.tc.edu) are activated and ready to click.
  4. The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  5. The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines, which is found in About the Journal.
  6. The text, if submitted to a peer-reviewed section (e.g., Articles), has had the authors' names removed. If an author is cited, "Author" and year are used in the bibliography and footnotes, instead of author's name, paper title, etc. The author's name has also been removed from the document's Properties, which in Microsoft Word is found in the File menu.
  7. Additionally, one hard copy and a diskette with the manuscript saved in rich text format should be mailed to:
    Alexander Karp
    IJHME, Program in Mathematics
    Box 210
    Teachers College, Columbia University
    525 West 120th Street
