Publication of Papers

The proceedings of the conference will be published in two parts: 

a volume of essays, comprising selected essays drawn from the keynote addresses, papers and presentations from tertiary, secondary and primary sectors.  These papers will undergo a peer review process, and the resulting volume will be published by a commercial publisher. 

a CD-ROM, featuring the papers, notes and teaching materials from the sessions devoted to classroom resources and techniques and which have an applied focus.

The expected publication date is in the second half of 2007.  More details will be given closer to the precise date.

Presenters who wish to have their paper considered for publication in the volume should submit their text by May 30 2007.  The text should be between 3000-5000 words in length, in French or in English.  Illustrations and tables will be considered for inclusion, but should be kept to a minimum,  and should also have copyright permission. 

Any pictures, graphics, graphs or other forms of illustrations should be of a good quality and submitted separately as JPEG files. They should fit onto A4-size paper.

 All contributions are submitted for review by  two referees.  After the review process has been completed, authors will receive copies of reviews and notification of the Editorial Committee's decision  to accept or reject the piece, or to suggest it be revised/re-written and re-submitted.
