SPOTLIGHT on Providers is published annually by the Early Learning Coalition of Pasco and Hernando Counties, Inc. for the provider community. It is distributed electronically to all providers and is also available on the website at www.elcph.org.
Authors are encouraged to submit readable, practical manuscripts that reflect and advance the knowledge base of the profession. Manuscripts should be prepared in current APA style (7th Edition). This style includes: typed, double-spaced, wide margins, and cover page with a working title, authors’ full names, degrees, affiliations, and e-mail address for the lead author.
Manuscripts published by ELCPH address both the continuing interests of early childhood professionals and emerging ideas and issues in the field. Among topics considered are emergent curriculum for children from birth through age 8, effective assessment strategies, effective classroom practices that reflect sound theory and research, program administration, relationships with families, and public policy effecting early care and education.
The length of journal manuscripts ranges from 1 to 3 pages, including complete references. Please submit manuscripts as e-mail attachments to expedite the review process. Send to s.sabadishin@elcph.org with the subject heading SPOTLIGHT Manuscript. Manuscripts are reviewed and processed electronically. Manuscripts that are submitted in hard copy will not be reviewed.
