The Journal of Outdoor
Recreation, Education, and Leadership is looking for an editor.
Here is the job posting via weainfo.org:
The Association of Outdoor Recreation and Education, The
Wilderness Education Association and the Western Kentucky University Research
Foundation have developed a new peer reviewed journal for the outdoor
profession.
Journal Philosophy & Purpose: Given the current culture
of many academic journals JOREL will fulfill a major gap created by the
distinction placed on "practitioner" versus "academic" shared knowledge. The
purpose of JOREL is to deliver best practices and research based information to
the outdoor community in one publication.
Journal Format: JOREL, a subscription-based electronic
journal, will create greater accessibility to a global audience while
maintaining reasonable subscription rates. In addition, using tools from The
Berkeley Electronic Press will help ensure compliance with web content
accessibility standards.
Primary Editor Responsibilities: The Editor's primary
responsibilities include ensuring manuscript quality, recruiting manuscript
submissions, assigning reviewers, tracking submissions and reviewer progress,
communication with authors and seeing that publication deadlines are met. JOREL
will utilize resources from The Berkeley Electronic Press, such as EdiKit Back
Office Solutions to assist the editor in these duties.
The Editor will work with a six member advisory group
comprised of two representatives from WEA, AORE and WKU.
Editor Salary: $3,000 annually.
Publication Schedule: Three issues annually.
Editor Qualifications: The successful candidate will have a
strong publication record and manuscript reviewing experience.
Interested parties should send CV highlighting publication
and manuscript reviewing history to Dr. Thomas Stuessy at:
