Founded and run by graduate students and <a href=\"https:\/\/education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal\/\">published online<\/a> through the Neag School, its primary purpose is to offer a platform for graduate students to share their research and knowledge with academic communities. It also hopes to broaden and deepen the literature of education as written and experienced by graduate students and early-career scholars. Ten graduate students from the Neag School make up the journal\u2019s current board.<\/p>\n<p>The journal prizes pieces that seek to \u201cimprove education and social systems in order to facilitate increasingly effective, equitable, and socially just practices for educators and practitioners from a variety of fields, perspectives, and theoretical lenses as they serve their local communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The three articles accepted and published in the Spring 2025 issue are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal\/spring-2025\/aspiration-vs-action-in-multicultural-education\/\">&#8220;Aspiration vs. Action in Multicultural Education: Examining Policy Revisions to Montana\u2019s Indian Education for All&#8221;<\/a> \u2013 a case study analysis that delves into the revisions that Montana House Bill 338 has produced to Montana\u2019s Indian Education for All (IEFA) act alongside recent critiques of IEFA from Native American activists as made salient in the trial Yellow Kidney v. Montana.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal\/spring-2025\/tier-1-teaching-in-practice\/\">&#8220;Tier 1 Teaching in Practice: Examining the Use of SEB Strategies, Mental Health Resources, and Identifying Areas of Need for Future Support&#8221;<\/a> \u2013 a reflection of research on the implementation of the Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports framework in a Northeast U.S. school district.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal\/spring-2025\/not-your-standard-english-languages-arts-classroom\/\">&#8220;Not Your Standard English Languages Arts Classroom: Critical Language Awareness Pedagogies in Secondary English&#8221;<\/a> \u2013 an essay that explores the historical context of linguistic racism in secondary English and Language Arts (ELA) classrooms through the lens of Critical Language Awareness (CLA) pedagogies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition to providing graduate students and early-career scholars an opportunity to share their work more widely, the editors say the journal fosters collaboration among students and their colleagues. It also helps to demystify the publishing process and supports editors as they move toward publishing their own work in the field. Making the journal open access was also important, ensuring that its content could serve as an available source of information for current and future practitioners. Importantly, authors maintain their copyright and thus can work on their pieces after publication for future submission elsewhere \u2013 a feature aligned with the journal\u2019s orientation toward building authors\u2019 capacity and opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>The journal is <a href=\"https:\/\/education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal\/submit\/\">accepting manuscripts for its fourth issue<\/a> until June 30. Manuscripts must be one of the following four types: research articles, essays, literature reviews, or personal reflections. Of course, the manuscript must deal with a topic of interest to those in the field of education.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have many fantastic and dedicated people to thank for the realization of our third issue,\u201d the letter from the board says. \u201cTo Dr. Jennie Weiner, our advisor, thank you for your tireless dedication to this journal and to students. You model to us what a human-centered and compassionate review process can be and have taught us enduring lessons as reviewers and researchers. Another thank you to Dr. Jason Irizarry, our dean, who has enthusiastically supported the journal from its inception and made it clear that our work and voices matter. &#8230; Finally, thank you to the authors of the pieces featured in this issue and all who submitted work. It goes without saying that this would be impossible without your contributions. We are immensely proud to feature your work in this issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>To learn more about the Neag School of Education Journal, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal\/\">education.uconn.edu\/neag-journal<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The editor-reviewed, open-access, annual journal is founded and run by graduate students at the Neag School and has published three articles in its Spring 2025 issue<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":141,"featured_media":211162,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_crdt_document":"","wds_primary_category":0,"wds_primary_series":0,"wds_primary_attribution":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2426,2427,2428,1855,2076],"tags":[],"magazine-issues":[],"coauthors":[2217],"class_list":["post-231804","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-curriculum-instruction","category-educational-leadership","category-educational-psychology","category-neag","category-research"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-05-08 11:08:32","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231804","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/users\/141"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=231804"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231804\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":231890,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/231804\/revisions\/231890"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/media\/211162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=231804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=231804"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=231804"},{"taxonomy":"magazine-issue","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/magazine-issues?post=231804"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/today.uconn.edu\/wp-rest\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=231804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
