FLCHE's Digital Publication
Standard Manuscript Submissions
In Context, a peer-reviewed journal, invites author submissions of the following kinds:
We are also publishing articles on historical events commemorated by historical societies in Florida and encourage Florida museums to submit articles that highlight the historical importance of an object in their collections. The manuscript should include citations in APA or Chicago and not exceed 1,500 words. Please include the name of the society or museum and location so our readers can learn more about your institutions!
Evaluation and Editing
The editors of In Context have the responsibility for deciding appropriateness and relevance for publication and reserve the right to edit for style (including grammar, punctuation, syntax, and vocabulary), but changes in content are made with the corresponding author's consent.
Length of Manuscripts
Manuscripts should be between 500 and 1,500 words in length. Editors may consider longer manuscripts in some cases.
Photographs, Illustrations, Tables and Figures
Authors are encouraged to provide appropriate illustrations, graphics, photographs, lesson plan materials, figures, and samples of students' work with their articles. Any and all visual support for the article should be discussed in the text and accompanied by captions.
