MISSION & EDITORIAL SCOPE The JOURNAL OF LATINOS AND
EDUCATION (JLE) provides a cross-, multi- and
interdisciplinary forum for scholars and writers from
diverse disciplines who share a common interest in the
analysis, discussion, critique and dissemination of
educational issues which impact Latinos. There are
four broad arenas which encompass most issues of
relevance; 1) Policy, 2) Research, 3) Practice and 4)
Creative & Literary works.

JLE encourages novel ways of thinking about the
ongoing and emerging questions around the unifying
thread of Latinos and  education. The journal supports
dialogical exchange for researchers, practitioners,
authors, and other stakeholders who are working to
advance understanding at all levels and aspects, be it
theoretical, conceptual, empirical, clinical,
historical, methodological, and/or other in scope.

 JLE seeks to identify and stimulate more relevant
research, practice, communication and theory by
providing a rich variety of information, and fostering
an outlet for sharing. The various manifestations of
the diverse frameworks and topical areas typically
range anywhere from, but aren't limited to,
theoretical and empirical analyses, policy
discussions, research reports, program
recommendations, evaluation studies, finding and
improving practical applications, carefully
documenting the transition of theory into real-world
practice, linking theory and research, new
dissertation research, literature reviews, reflective
discussions, cultural  studies and literary works.

JLE is open to varying research methodologies and
narrative models so as to encourage submissions from
varied disciplines, areas  and fields.  "Education" is
defined in the broad cultural sense, and not limited
to just formal schooling.  Particular attention is
given to geographical equity to assure representation
of all regions and "Latino" groups in the U.S..
Policies and practices promoting equity and social
justice for linguistically and culturally diverse
groups are particularly encouraged and welcomed for
consideration.  A range of formats for articles is
encouraged:
* research articles,
* essay reviews and interviews,
* practitioner and community perspectives,
* book and media reviews, and
* other forms of creative critical writing.
