Research in Mathematics Education is an international English language journal, publishing original refereed articles on all aspects of mathematics education. Papers should address the central issues in terms which are of relevance across educational systems and informed by wider thinking in the field.The journal has three sections, covering research papers, book reviews, and current reports.The Research Papers section contains reports of studies involving empirical investigation and theoretical argumentation from which conclusions and implications can be drawn for future research and practice. Such reports are expected to show how the study builds on critical review of relevant literature and to provide an account of the methods and procedures used. Reports on thoughtful replications or variations of key earlier studies are welcome, as are critical reviews of some well-defined aspect of mathematics education. The journal welcomes high-quality research in any methodological tradition and is open to innovative and unusual approaches. All submissions are peer-reviewed.The Current Reports section contains short summaries of research papers which have been recently published in the online informal proceedings of the meetings of BSRLM.The Book Reviews section contains reviews of recent publications in the field. While reviews may focus on individual works, they may examine several recent publications on cognate topics. In this spirit too, reviewers are encouraged to make explicit reference to relevant earlier work in the field and to other contemporary work, clearly locating the new text within the literature of the field, and providing thoughtful comparison.Research in Mathematics Education is the official journal of the British Society for Research into Learning Mathematics.Peer Review Policy:All research articles published in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science publications:Taylor & Francis and the British Society for Research into Learning Mathematics makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.

Educational Action Research is a fully refereed international journal concerned with exploring the dialogue between research and practice in educational settings. The considerable increase in interest in action research in recent years has been accompanied by the development of a number of different approaches: for example, to promote reflective practice; professional development; empowerment; understanding of tacit professional knowledge; curriculum development; individual, institutional and community change; and development of democratic management and administration. Proponents of all these share the common aim of ending the dislocation of research from practice, an aim which links them with those involved in participatory research and action inquiry. This journal publishes accounts of a range of action research and related studies, in education and across the professions, with the aim of making their outcomes widely available and exemplifying the variety of possible styles of reporting. It aims to establish and maintain a review of the literature of action research. It also provides a forum for dialogue on the methodological and epistemological issues, enabling different approaches to be subjected to critical reflection and analysis.The impetus for Educational Action Research came from CARN, the Collaborative Action Research Network, and since its foundation in 1992, EAR has been important in extending and strengthening this international network.Editorial correspondence, including manuscripts for submission (in three copies), together with an electronic copy of the article in MS Word format, should be sent to Christopher Day, Co-Editor, Educational Action Research, School of Education, University of Nottingham, Jubilee Campus, Wollaton Road, Nottingham NG8 1BB, United Kingdom.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees, normally from two different countries in line with the journal's international status.Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science publications:Taylor & Francis and Collaborative Action Research Network make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.
