Chapter Proposal Guidelines

Dear Colleague,

Thank you for expressing an interest in writing a chapter for the upcoming book, Skill Development from Novice to Expert: Voices from Different Fields. We invite you to submit a proposal of your chapter by December 17, 2019. If accepted, your chapter manuscript of approximately 20 pages should be submitted for consideration by June 1, 2020 with final determination for publication by August 1, 2020. The book will be arranged by field (health care, education, law enforcement, business, military, etc.). Chapter proposals should represent research or practice in adult skill development in any or all of the levels from novice to expert—novice, advanced beginner, competent, proficient, expert (Dreyfus & Dreyfus, 1980). Skill Development from Novice to Expert: Voices from Different Fields will be sponsored by the Adult Higher Educational Alliance (AHEA).

Skill Development from Novice to Expert: Voices from Different Fields is important because it fills a unique niche in the field of adult, higher, and workforce education, extends the scope of AHEA to a larger audience, and offers a current volume for scholars and practitioners based on both empirical studies and practice-based research. This collection is appropriate for a wide variety of professors, researchers, practitioners, and students in the field of adult, higher, and workforce education. Your manuscript will be reviewed by the co-editors, Dr. Silva Mangiante and Dr. Peno. Acceptance of your chapter for publication will be determined by the editors.

We look forward to receiving your chapter proposal for consideration. If you have any questions about the process, please email us at skilldevelopmentbook@gmail.com.

Sincerely,
Dr. Elaine Silva Mangiante, Editor
Dr. Kathy Peno, Editor
