FOCUS AND SCOPE

Praxis: A Writing Center Journal is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal published by the University Writing Center at the University of Texas at Austin.

As a forum for writing-center practitioners, Praxis welcomes articles from writing-center consultants, administrators, and others concerned with issues related to writing-center training, consulting, labor, administration, and initiatives. 

 
 

PEER REVIEW PROCESS

The editorial board of Praxis seeks writing-center related articles from across the disciplines. The review board welcomes submissions three times a year for our Fall (August 15th deadline), Spring (January 15th deadline), and Summer (May 15th deadline) review cycles.

Reviewers judge submissions according to whether they make a unique contribution to writing center studies and are written in a clear, accessible style. Reviewers are recruited based on their significant contributions to writing center practice and scholarship. All reviews are blind—both authors and reviewers remain anonymous. Authors can expect review decisions by early November (for Fall cycles), mid-March (for Spring cycles), and early August (for Summer cycles).
