Is Natural Sciences Education the journal for you?
Ken Barbarick*1, 1Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO.
Natural Sciences Education (NSE) is a peer-reviewed international journal published online continuously during the year. Articles are written by and for educators in the areas of animal science, ecology, natural resources, agronomy, the environment, entomology, and more. Articles cover extension, university, industry, administration, and grades K-12 education. NSE is published by the American Society of Agronomy. NSE provides quick turnaround (49 d from submission to first decision in 2014) and an editorial board that represents all cooperating societies and that works closely with authors to improve the chances for publication (76% acceptance rate on 29 submissions in 2014). We welcome pedagogical studies that include supporting data replicated in time or space, review papers, philosophical discussions, K-12 activities, and profiles of legendary scientists/teachers. We hope members of ADSA and ASAS will consider NSE as their outlet for educational papers.
