TYPES OF RESEARCH
81 Qualitative/interpretive methods (e.g. Case study, action research, collaborative research, ethnography, narrative, teaching experiment) 82 Linguistic and cultural studies (e.g. Social Activity Theory, discourse analysis) 83 Theoretical/Philosophical analysis 84 Quantitative methods (e.g. Survey design, Experimental design)
PME will be contacting potential reviewers shortly. Reviewers will have presented either two Research Reports in the last five years or presented three Research Reports in the last ten years at a PME conference. Additional reviewers will be invited from PME-NA. These will be experience reviewers who have presented at least one Research Report at a past PME conference.
Reviewers for reports of studies (A) will be asked to comment on the following: Theoretical framework and related literature, methodology (if appropriate), statement and discussion of results, clarity, and relevance to a PME audience. Reviewers for theoretical and philosophical essays (B) will be asked to comment on the theoretical framework and related literature, on the articulated statement of the author's position, on implications for existing and further research and on relevance to the PME audience. More guidelines will be given directly to the reviewers of Research Reports. Examples of good and bad reviews will de included in the invites to reviewers.
