DANCELINES
in Research in Dance Education journal
Some of you may have noticed that Dancelines, a journal set up by the National Resource Centre for Dance at the University of Surrey, to publish good student writing, has recently been incorporated as a section within the journal, Research in Dance Education, published by Taylor and Francis. I have taken over from Judith Chapman as editor of this section of the journal. Those of us on the Dancelines Editorial Board are excited by this move which gives Dancelines a secure home whilst also extending its potential readership considerably both nationally and internationally. It is planned to include a Dancelines section containing one or two articles in the journal in one issue per year. The Dancelines Editorial Board wishes to continue the practice whereby HE tutors recommend papers that they think might be worthy of publication and encourage those students concerned to submit them using the journal's guidelines(attached with a student details sheet). We are deliberately not publishing the guidelines in the journal because we wish to avoid students themselves sending in work they think might be worthy of publication. Can I therefore ask you all to inform other staff of this initiative, and to look out for good student writing and encourage students to submit work to us if you think it might be worthy of publication. This most probably means that students need to make any corrections or amendments indicated by markers before submission. We welcome undergraduate as well as postgraduate work normally between 3000 and 6000 words long - the key criterion being that the work is publishable in an academic journal. We are urgently seeking copy now for the next issue of the journal due for publication in early 2007. Submissions should be sent to me at the address below: Prof. Valerie A. Briginshaw, Associate Editor Dancelines, Dance Department, University of Chichester, Chichester, West Sussex, PO19 1DE.
