Scope/Description:

Journal of Early Childhood Literacy is a fully peerreviewed international journal. Since its foundation in 2001 JECL has rapidly become a distinctive leading voice in research in early childhood literacy with a multinational range of contributors and readership. The main emphasis in the journal is on papers researching issues related to the nature function and use of literacy in early childhood. This includes the history development use learning and teaching of literacy as well as policy and strategy. Research papers may address theoretical methodological strategic or applied aspects of early childhood literacy and could be reviews of research issues. JECL is both a forum for debate about the topic of early childhood literacy and a resource for those working in the field. Literacy is broadly defined JECL focuses on the 08 age range.Our prime interest in empirical work is those studies that are situated in authentic or naturalistic settings this differentiates the journal from others in the area. JECL therefore tends to favour qualitative work but is also open to research employing quantitative methods. The journal is multidisciplinary. We welcome submissions from diverse disciplinary backgrounds including education cultural psychology literacy studies sociology anthropology historical and cultural studies applied linguistics and semiotics.
