Call for papers for Norland Educare Research Journal launching in 130th year

Norland has issued a call for papers for the Norland Educare Research Journal (ISSN pending) which will launch in celebration of Norland’s 130th anniversary.

The journal is a new publication dedicated to home-based/in-home childcare. It is an international double-blind peer-reviewed open access journal, published online only. The journal is a tribute to the legacy of the educational pioneer Emily Ward, the founder of Norland, who recognised that education and care are indistinguishable ingredients of childcare that should be centered around the child and offered in a loving and nurturing environment by trained educarers.

The journal welcomes papers exploring contemporary issues pertaining to the home-based/in-home educare of young children, especially papers which offer unique perspectives and convey thought leadership substantiated by rigorous and credible research and argumentation. It accepts papers that consider educare from discipline-specific and interdisciplinary perspectives. Papers may report empirical research, systematic literature reviews and scoping studies, philosophical positions, critical reviews and commentaries, and methodological approaches.
