Miscellany
 
                        Scope of the JTE
 
               The JOURNAL OF TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION pro-
          vides a forum for scholarly discussion on
          topics relating to technology education.
          Manuscripts should focus on technology educa-
          tion research, philosophy, theory, or prac-
          tice.  In addition, the JOURNAL publishes
          book reviews, editorials, guest articles,
          comprehensive literature reviews, and re-
          actions to previously published articles.
 
                        Editorial Process
 
               Manuscripts that appear in the ARTICLES
          section have been subjected to a blind review
          by three or more members of the editorial
          board.  This process generally takes from six
          to eight weeks, at which time authors are
          promptly notified of the status of their man-
          uscript.
