Our editorial approach is pragmatic and how-to. The ideal article must be useful and replicable in the everyday classroom, if feasible. The topic should help teachers do their jobs better in some way or offer support. Articles must include 2\u20133 interview sources and they should be engaging and relevant. Interested journalists should have magazine publishing experience and familiarity with the North American education system. <strong>For example:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: square;\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/turning-pages-putting-the-fun-back-into-reading\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Turning Pages: Putting the Fun Back Into Reading<\/u><\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/planet-school-building-a-greener-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u><strong>Planet School: Building a Greener World<\/strong><\/u><\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"\/encouraging-creativity-in-lesson-plans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Encouraging Creativity in Lesson Plans<\/u><\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Classroom Perspectives \u2013 OpEd\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Classroom Perspectives is an opinion column where teachers anywhere in the world can write informally, in their own voice, about their personal experiences with teaching.
