OBTA – An Association for Business Technology Educators
2011 Publication Guidelines
The Ohio Business Technology Educator

Manuscripts for The Ohio Business Technology Educator are now being accepted. Authors should note that articles in the journal may also be published on the Web. All manuscripts must be submitted no later than July 1, 2011, for consideration for the next issue. Manuscripts may vary in length; however, the typical manuscript is approximately 2,500 words. Manuscripts, in Microsoft Word, must be submitted both electronically (as a .doc, .docx, or .rtf file format) as well as in hard copy form.

Topics of the manuscripts may be related to a variety of areas concerned with education for business. The discipline’s status, teaching and learning, research, curriculum, methods, computers and technology, and administration are frequent topics; articles should fit general categories of theory, research, and/or practice. All artwork should be submitted on disk in camera-ready format for duplication. Each piece of art should be printed on a separate sheet of paper for submission with the hard copy document.

The latest edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA) should be followed. For the purpose of these manuscripts, the 5th edition is preferred since the 6th edition of the manual contains minor printing errors and a revised copy is not yet in circulation at the time of this writing.

This is a scholarly, refereed journal. Manuscripts will be reviewed, evaluated, and possibly accepted for publication. Manuscripts not accepted for publication will be returned to the author (or first-listed author on a coauthored manuscript). The committee, under the direction of the Interim Editor, consists of secondary school educators from Ohio, postsecondary educators, and other important professionals.

Attach to the manuscript your complete name, title, position, school or agency name and address, telephone number, and e-mail address. Provide complete information for all coauthors.
