Call for Manuscripts: "Food, Culture, and Asia" EAA Winter 2011

Education About Asia (EAA) is the peer-reviewed teaching journal of the Association for Asian Studies. Our approximately 2,300 readers include undergraduate instructors as well as high school and middle school teachers. Our articles are intended to provide educators, who are often not specialists, with basic understanding of Asia-related content. Qualified referees evaluate
all manuscripts submitted for consideration. Most of our subscribers teach and work in history, the social sciences, or the humanities.

We are in the process of developing a special section entitled "Food, Culture, and Asia" for the winter 2011 issue of EAA. In this special section, we invite authors to submit manuscripts that address any aspect of food that will either stimulate an interest in Asia or assist readers in more effectively teaching or learning about a wide variety of Asia-related cultural topics. We welcome
manuscripts from teachers, scholars, journalists, or others who have expertise in the topic.

Prospective authors should be aware that approximately fifty percent of our readers teach at the undergraduate level and the rest are secondary or middle school teachers. We are most interested in manuscripts that are useful for introductory survey-level courses at both the secondary and undergraduate levels.

Please consult the EAA guidelines, available on the website under my signature before submitting a manuscript for this special section. Pay particular attention to feature and teaching resources manuscript word count ranges. Prospective authors are also encouraged to share possible manuscript ideas with me via email. The deadline for initial submission of manuscripts is July 10, 2011.
