Invitation from Editors

The MTE Editors welcome questions from prospective authors regarding submission ideas. Please feel free to send us an email message, and we will be happy to talk further with you. The editors will also be available during a session highlighting AMTE’s publications at the 2021 Annual Conference in Orlando, FL.

The Editorial Team’s Response to COVID-19

We hope that our readers, authors, and reviewers are safe and staying well as we all adjust to the new reality caused by COVID-19. We recognize that this pandemic has created challenges and caused interruptions in our lives as we adjust to new ways of working while continuing our work as mathematics teacher educators.

In response to this crisis, the editorial team has provided more time for authors to revise and resubmit their manuscripts. Reviewers are allotted more time to complete peer reviews, and we are providing extensions, if needed. We also know many of our reviewers will need to decline our invitations because of other commitments and responsibilities. We understand your need to do so and hope you will continue to review manuscripts for the MTE journal when you have more time to do so.
