Call for Guest Editor(s): AAPT Studies Vol. 10

AAPT Studies in Pedagogy header image

AAPT Studies in Pedagogy seeks proposals for a theme and guest editor(s) for Volume 10.

AAPT Studies in Pedagogy is a peer-reviewed annual dedicated to publishing thematically focused volumes of original works on teaching and learning in philosophy. The thematic volumes include a range of contributions, from practical advice to theoretical discussions. 

Successful proposals will have broad appeal to people who teach philosophy and preferably to people interested in teaching innovations more generally. Potential themes include but are not limited to:

  • Types of pedagogy (e.g., problem-based learning)
  • Approaches to assessment (e.g., contract grading, principles of rubric construction)
  • Learning objectives, course policies, and course-related matters that aren’t pedagogy or assessment
  • Courses of certain types (e.g., high impact; classes focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion; intro.)
  • Topics (e.g., logic) or figures that are frequently taught (e.g., Descartes)
  • Big questions about teaching and learning (e.g., What does it mean to be learner-centered?)
  • Creative ideas not covered in this list!!!

Proposal Submission Deadline: Sept. 5, 2023

To submit a proposal, please send the following to David Concepción at editor@aaptstudies.org

  • Description of the proposed theme, its importance to teaching and learning, some historical context (if appropriate), the extent to which the theme has been covered in other SoTL venues. No more than 1000 words.
  • Brief description of each editor’s experience and expertise within the area of the proposed theme. May be in the form of a CV. No more than two pages please.
