The Journal of Natural History Education is an electronic, peer-reviewed journal sponsored by the Natural History Network. Its purpose is to foster a renaissance in natural history education by providing a forum for disseminating information on techniques, curricula, and pedagogy for natural history education at all levels: K-12, undergraduate, graduate, and general public.

The Natural History Network is an affiliation of teachers, scientists, and nature writers who seek to promote the values of natural history through discussion and dissemination of ideas and techniques on its successful practice to educators, scientists, artists, writers, the media, and the public at large.

The journal seeks papers that provide information that will promote the development of natural history curricula and are generally accessible to natural history educators. Content of the journal ranges from the applied to the philosophical, but entirely focused on the principles or practice of natural history education.

Specifically, we publish articles on the following issues:

• Descriptions of natural history curricula;
• Reviews of practical issues related to the teaching of natural history; and
• Discussions about the philosophy of natural history education.
