Research in Online Literacy Education

Picture

ROLE welcomes four kinds of submissions: articles, strategies, technologies reviews, and book reviews. 

Submission Types

Articles

Strategies

Strategies offers research that is a mix of both practice and theory. The articles in this section have a theoretical basis or framework while simultaneously focusing on helping readers implement pedagogical practices within their own curriculum. We publish articles that not only thoroughly explore the teaching of online literacies, but that also make an explicit theoretical argument for various teaching practices, methodologies, or innovative curricula. 

Authors include various materials, such as assignments, syllabi, and multimodal instructional tools (videos, podcasts, etc.) including links to other materials when applicable (student-created materials, such as e-portfolios, websites, multimodal projects, and so on). The design of the article contributes to the meaning or argument presented in the text, serving as a metaphor for what is being discussed.

Technology Reviews

ROLE publishes reviews of digital media and applications that support literacy teaching and learning in digital environments. We publish reviews that focus on specific applications (e.g., Prezi), as well as particular functions of specific applications (e.g., commenting feature in Google Docs). 
We invite a range of lengths and types of reviews, from short overviews of a new tool to more in depth reviews reflecting on pedagogy and other implications. If you plan to write a technology review, please visit our detailed guidelines.

Book Reviews

ROLE book reviews focus on books associated with multiple literacies, most especially digital and critical literacies, as well as books on online teaching and learning. Contact the Book Review Editor for book titles you want reviewed or to be a reviewer.
