Winter/Spring Learning Curve Edition is Out

DeShun Harris, Kevin Sherill, Sarira Sadeghi, and Nancy Reeves sent out the latest edition of the Learning Curve last week.  The articles look great with topics ranging from teaching 2L remedial courses to helping students practice mindfulness.  We have a great community sharing information.  You can access the current edition of the Learning Curve on SSRN or at the Law School Academic Success Project.  I copied the email from DeShun below for more information on submitting articles.  I hope everyone enjoys the read and thinks about submitting their own article for publication.

"The editors of The Learning Curve are pleased to publish the Winter/Spring 2019 edition which is attached. In this edition, you will find articles related to academic support work generally. We hope you will find these authors’ articles as insightful as we did as editors.

We are currently considering articles for the Summer/Fall 2019 issue, and we want to hear from you! We encourage both new and seasoned ASP professionals to submit their work.

We are publishing a general issue so we are considering all ideas related to academic support. If you have a classroom activity you would like to share, individual counseling techniques, advice for the academic support professional, and any other ideas, we want to hear from you!

Please ensure that your articles are applicable to our wide readership. Principles that apply broadly — i.e., to all teaching or support program environments — are especially welcome. While we always want to be supportive of your work, we discourage articles that focus solely on advertising for an individual school’s program.

Please send your article submission to [email protected] by no later than August 5, 2019. (Please do not send inquiries to the Gmail account, as it is not regularly monitored.) Attach your submission to your message as a Word file. Please do not send a hard-copy manuscript or paste a manuscript into the body of an email message.

Articles should be 500 to 2,000 words in length, with light references, if appropriate. Please include any references in a references list at the end of your manuscript, not in footnotes. (See articles in this issue for examples.)

We look forward to reading your work and learning from you!
