Educational Researcher 33.4
Contents of ER 33.4 (May 2004). This is not a permalink, it's a link to the most current issue. ER issues don't get a permalink until they go in the archives.

Ecologies of Parental Engagement in Urban Education. Angela Calabrese Barton, Corey Drake, Jose Gustavo Perez, Kathleen St. Louis, and Magnia George.

Must It Be This Way? Ten Rules for Keeping Your Audience Awake During Conferences. Sam Wineburg.

Dissecting the Anatomy of African-American Inequality: The Impact of Racial Stigma and Social Origins on Group Status and College Achievement. Larry L. Rowley, University of Michigan.

Sam's article (pdf) is a must read, but one wonders why ER chose to publish it immediately after AERA.

Educational Researcher Vol. 33, Issue 3
Here's the contents of ER 33.3. A couple notes about linking to current issues of ER. ER does not make archival links available until an issue is no longer current. So this link will break when the next issue comes out, but it's pretty easy to navigate from the current issue to find back issues. The second note is that abstracts are not available online, but the entire articles are freely downloadable as .pdf files. So links below are to .pdf files.

Tracking Journals
I'm going to start posting new journal issue table of contents as they appear for the journals listed on my sidebar. This is primarily for myself; I'm finding that I'm falling behind in terms of tracking new publications and storing them here is a good way to remind myself of what I need to be reading. Hopefully this will be useful to others, since most journal publishers aren't offering RSS feeds of their content. (Erlbaum at least will send me email when new issues come out, but it doesn't look like Wiley will even do that.) I'll get the current issue contents posted later this week.
