Editors: Dr. Josefina Villamil Tinajero & Dr. Judith Hope Munter, The 
University of Texas at El Paso

The TABE (Texas Association for Bilingual Education) Journal, a 
peer-reviewed publication, is distributed by TABE for the purpose of 
improving practice and advancing the knowledge base in bilingual education. 
The Journal seeks articles that examine policies, theoretical constructs, 
cultural issues or practices impacting bilingual teaching and learning. 
Review of books and other media and descriptions of successful classroom 
practices will also be considered.  The TABE Journal will publish articles 
written in either English or Spanish.  The Editorial Board will consider 
clarity of presentation and timeliness of the content in judging the quality 
of the manuscripts.

Focus: This issue invites researchers and practitioners to submit articles 
and essays on bilingual education with a special focus on high stakes 
testing's impacts on bilingual education. Qualitative and quantitative 
studies that can contribute to the growing knowledge base of bilingual 
education models and best practices are especially welcome.  Other issues to 
be addressed include assessment and evaluation, social justice concerns, and 
the challenges of bilingual education in the context of high stakes 
accountability.

Who Should Submit: Higher education faculty, graduate students and staff 
with experience planning/designing/implementing and conducting research on 
bilingual education programs; K-12 teachers and administrators with 
bilingual education knowledge and experience.

Procedure, Requirements, Deadlines and Editing Policy: Manuscripts are to be 
submitted electronically as a Word Document. Send e-mail attachment, 
MS-Word-docfile type, to tinajero at utep.edu with copy to jmunter at utep.edu,

We do not accept zipped or compressed files. To ensure reviews are "blind," 
the author(s) must include a separate MS-Word-doc-file with name(s), 
address, telephone number, Email address and institutional affiliation. 
E-mail will be our way to communicate with you.  It is further requested 
that a brief abstract of no more than 150 words describing the essence of 
the article be included.

facilitate the journal's double-blind-peer reviewed process.
