Theory & Practice in Rural Education

In this upcoming 2024 special issue of TPRE, we aim to highlight research, teaching, and professional practices that examine educator residencies in rural settings. We are particularly interested in manuscripts that explore the development and study of rural residencies built upon an asset-based window into the lived reality of people in rural places by privileging their knowledge, focusing on their empowerment, and disavowing deficit-oriented narratives of rurality.

Those interested in being considered for this special issue should submit a full manuscript to the TPRE system (http://tpre.ecu.edu) by May 15th 2024. Questions about possible topics or ideas should be sent to Dr. Kristen Cuthrell (cuthrellma@ecu.edu) and Jennifer Williams (williamsjen16@ecu.edu). All submissions will go through the TPRE process of double-blind review by experts in the field. TPRE Author Guidelines: http://tpre.ecu.edu/index.php/tpre/about/submissions#authorGuideline
