AMLE Vision (2012-2015)

AMLE seeks to be the international journal of choice for research about MLE.

We will publish scholarship that is rigorous and relevant, and collaborate with other Academy and MLE journals to help those who study, teach, and manage management-related learning.

Strategic Initiatives

International: Special issue; international visits, workshop, & conferences (Australia & China)

Rigorous: Increased standards for theory, method, and data reporting; desk decisions

Relevant: Pushing for practical implications; connecting to current management challenges in editorials, website, and social media

Helpful: Ethics focus, BRR “clusters”

A Focus on Ethics

Honig & Bedi (2012) results

New ethics policies approved

Plagiarism detection (iThenticate) active

Goal: Send us ideas for the scholarship we should be doing. Consider writing!

Book & Resource Review Upcoming “Clusters”

Non-management journals

(e.g., Adult Education Quarterly, Journal of Educational

Psychology, Educational Psychology Review)

Teaching & learning conferences

(e.g., The Teaching Professor Conference, American

Association for Adult and Continuing Education

Conference (AAACE), American Society for Training and

Development (ASTD), AACSB Assessment Conference)
