"Instructors have often used the spreadsheet as a educational tool since these software packages' inception. The free, online journal, Spreadsheets in Education (eJSiE), provides a forum for a more formal exploration of use of the tool in instruction, with peer-reviewed papers that advance 'understanding of the role that spreadsheets can play in constructivist educational contexts.'
In addition to the journal, the eJSiE website includes a section, 'In the Classroom,' that provides practical classroom activity resources, including downloadable spreadsheet models. The journal and other resources is available at http://www.sie.bond.edu.au/.
Spreadsheets in Education (eJSiE) [ISSN 1448-6156] is published by the Faculty of Information Technology at Bond University, Queensland, Australia. For more information, contact: Dr Steve Sugden, eJSiE Editor-in-Chief, Bond University, Gold Coast Q 4229, Australia; tel: (07) 55953325; international tel: +617 55953325; email: ssugden@staff.bond.edu.au."
