6 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education http://jesse.usra.edu JESSE is a new interdisciplinary electronic journal aiming to: * Foster the study of the Earth as a system and the development and exchange of interdisciplinary learning resources for formal and informal education * Serve educators and students by publishing and providing ready electronic access to Earth system and global change science learning resources for the classroom * Provide authors and creators professional recognition through publication in a peer reviewed journal

7 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education http://jesse.usra.edu * JESSE resources foster a world perspective both through interdisciplinary studies and bridging disciplines in the context of the system * JESSE will publish a wide ranging variety of electronic content, with minimal constraints on format, including: Electronic learning resources, modules, courses, texts Articles on Earth system processes Research on ESS learning and best pedagogical practices Disciplinary learning resources which are basic to and develop an Earth system perspective Educator experiences with ESS in the classroom The use of learning modules including lesson plans Applications of visualization Image collections with annotation for classroom use etc.

8 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education http://jesse.usra.edu * JESSE is targeting undergraduate educators and students as the principal readership, expanding to a middle and high school audience as the journal matures * JESSE aims for rapid review and turn-around of resources to be published, with a goal of 12 weeks from submission to publication for resources requiring few changes * Initial publication will be on a quarterly basis until a flow of resource submissions is established to warrant continuous electronic publication

9 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education http://jesse.usra.edu * JESSE will employ an open peer review process in which authors and reviewers discuss directly the acceptability of a resource for publication * Reviewer comments and attribution will be available with the resource upon acceptance for publication * JESSE will also implement a moderated peer commentary capability where readers can comment on the use of a resource or make suggestions * In the development phase, JESSE will also conduct a parallel anonymous review of content to validate and ensure credibility of the open review approach

10 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education http://jesse.usra.edu * JESSE is collaborating with the Digital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE) as a federated partner * JESSE review criteria parallel DLESE’s and include: Scientific credibility Pedagogical effectiveness Presentation style and ease of use Adequacy of documentation Robustness and sustainability Importance or significance Motivational or inspirational value

11 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education http://jesse.usra.edu * Copyright of materials submitted to JESSE remains with the author. * Authors grant JESSE a non-exclusive right to maintain a copy of the resource published on the JESSE web server, ensuring long term access to the resource as reviewed * JESSE will link back to the author’s most current work

13 Journal of Earth System Science Education Earth system and global change science for formal and informal education JESSE emphasizes an interdisciplinary system approach to understanding Earth processes and phenomena serving educators and students at all levels with peer-reviewed learning resources, articles and reviews for use in the classroom, laboratory and self study. JESSE is seeking submissions which address learning about the Earth system in the broad areas of: Air Water Land Life Human dimensions Technology ESS pedagogy Sustainability Policy applications including Electronic learning resources, courses, texts Articles Research on ESS learning and best pedagogical practices Disciplinary learning resources which are basic to and develop an Earth system perspective Educator experiences with ESS in the classroom Lesson plans Visualization tools Image collections with with annotation for classroom use etc. Authors retain copyright. http://jesse.usra.edu ISSN 1529-7993
