Professional Studies Review
Open Issue, Spring 2009
Professional Studies Review (PSR) is a refereed journal
published by St. John's University in New York, devoted to the
pedagogical needs and research interests of those working within
career-oriented disciplines. The Review is currently accepting
papers for its next issue scheduled for publication in late spring
of 2009. Deadline for submission: April 15, 2009.
Purpose
Scholars and professionals are invited to submit articles that will
provide readers with new and valuable research results, stimulate
their thinking about developments in their fields, and provide a
critical forum for further discussion and scholarship. We are
especially interested in articles that explore issues which cut
across specialized boundaries and which exhibit an awareness of
recent research in a field.
Scope
The Review welcomes articles from a wide range of professional
disciplines, including but not limited to, such fields of study as
Criminal Justice, Health Services, Hospitality Management, Computer
Science, Sports Administration, Television, Film, Legal Studies,
Administration, and Journalism. Articles may either be theoretical,
empirical, or experimental in their approach to their subject; all
methodologies are acceptable.
Theme
For this issue the Review is especially interested in
articles on technology and teaching but will consider articles on
any topic of general interest to those working within the
career-oriented fields mentioned above. Specific possibilities
might include (but are not limited to) such issues as:
- The scholarship of pedagogy
- Academic reward systems
- The image of professional studies
- Professional development issues
- International
education
- Intellectual property issues
