Theory and Research into Practice (TRIP) Series

The NCTE Books Program invites proposals for its TRIP series (Theory and Research into Practice). These books are single-authored and focus on a single topic, targeting a specified educational level (elementary, middle, or secondary).

Each book will offer the following: solid theoretical foundation in a given subject area within English language arts; exposure to the pertinent research in that area; practice-oriented models designed to stimulate theory-based application in the reader’s own classroom.

The series has an extremely wide range of subject matter; past titles include Creative Approaches to Sentence Combining, Unlocking Shakespeare’s Language, and Enhancing Aesthetic Reading and Response.

Click here for detailed submission guidelines. Proposals to be considered for the TRIP series should include a short review of the theory and research, as well as examples of classroom practices that can be adapted to the teaching level specified. Send proposals to:
