Research on Innovative Uses of Digital Video in the K-12 Classroom and Its Implications for Teacher Education
English/Language Arts Section
Digital video is a particularly dynamic mode of communication in the context of new literacies and emerging technologies. This special issue will emphasize articles describing research on the topic of digital video in the K-12 English language arts and/or literacy classroom. Research settings may include either the classrooms of in-service teachers or the classrooms of preservice teachers during their field experiences or student teaching. Uses of digital video to be studied may include commercially prepared videos, teacher-created videos, or student-created videos. We define “digital video” broadly to include video filmed with a camera, a collection of still images and/or video clips combined through software such as iMovie or Moviemaker, screen capture of action taking place on a computer monitor, Flash movies, and more. Submissions should draw connections between classroom research and implications for English and/or literacy teacher preparation.
Manuscripts must be submitted no later than August 15, 2009.

Social Studies Education Section
Powerful and meaningful social studies education requires that teachers and students engage in sophisticated and systematic literacy work. Digital video is a particularly dynamic mode of communication in the context of new literacies and emerging technologies. This special issue will emphasize articles describing research on the topic of digital video in the social studies/history and social science classroom. Research settings may include teacher education contexts or K-12 classrooms. Uses of digital video to be studied may include commercially prepared videos, teacher-created videos, or student-created videos. We define "digital video" broadly to include video filmed with a camera, a collection of still images and/or video clips combined through software such as iMovie or Moviemaker, screen capture of action taking place on a computer monitor, Flash movies, and more. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of hyperlinks to provide supporting evidence, including sample digital video projects that adhere to copyright guidelines.
Submissions should draw connections between classroom research and implications for social studies /history and social science teacher preparation.
Manuscripts must be submitted no later than August 15, 2009.

Science Education Section
The use of moving images has been a tool in the science education teaching methodology for the past 100 years. With the advent of new tools to capture, edit, and explore digital movies, teachers are able to invent new ways for their students to investigate science using video technology. We are calling for articles for a special issue in the CITE Journal that describe the research on the use of digital video in the K-12 science classroom. Digital video is being defined broadly as any sequential set of digital images that provide a sense of motion when played at a specific frame rate. This could be the use of commercial video, student- or teacher-created video, sequences of images captured from a computer screen, animations, graphic simulations, Flash movies, and more. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of hyperlinks within the article to provide supporting evidence, including sample digital video projects that adhere to copyright guidelines. Each article should draw connections between classroom research and implications for teacher preparation.
Manuscripts must be submitted no later than August 15, 2009.

General Section
Research settings may include either the classrooms of in-service teachers or the classrooms of preservice teachers during their field experiences or student teaching. Digital video may include commercially prepared video, teacher-created video, or student-created video. We define “digital video” broadly to include video filmed with a camera, a collection of still images and/or video clips combined through software such as iMovie or Moviemaker, screen capture of action taking place on a computer monitor, Flash movies, and more.
Research articles on the innovative uses of digital video in the K-12 classroom and the impact of this research on teacher education about content areas not addressed in other sections of CITE Journal should be submitted to the General Section for review. Appropriate content may come from foreign and classical languages, exceptional learners, physical education, music and art education, or general teacher education including technology education/professional development courses where research on the integration of digital video might be conducted. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of hyperlinks to provide supporting evidence, including sample digital video projects that adhere to copyright guidelines. Each article should draw connections between classroom research and implications for teacher preparation.
Manuscripts must be submitted no later than September 15, 2009.

Current Practice Section
The Current Practice section seeks articles for a special issue on digital video in teacher education and K-12 settings that impact teacher education. Digital video may include commercially prepared video, teacher-created video, or student-created video. We define “digital video” broadly to include video filmed with a camera, a collection of still images and/or video clips combined through software such as iMovie or Moviemaker, screen capture of action taking place on a computer monitor, Flash movies, and more.
Articles do not have to be empirical in nature, but must build on the existing literature, as well as take advantage as the WWW as a publishing medium by including appropriate hyperlinks, videos, and graphics to provide supporting evidence, including sample digital video projects that adhere to copyright guidelines. Each article should also draw connections between innovative and current practices, and their implications for teacher preparation.
Manuscripts must be submitted no later than September 15, 2009
