Instruction
First, check the Research Clearinghouse to ensure that the resources you wish to add are not already listed. To streamline this process, we suggest using keywords in your bibliographic software to track submissions.
Next, ensure that the resources are relevant. They should pertain to K-12 online and blended learning or have significant implications for this field. The Clearinghouse is not intended for news reports or general articles on online learning; its focus is on primary source documents such as dissertations, reports, white papers, journals, articles, book chapters, books, conference proceedings, and legislation.
Then, ensure that the references are complete. Please verify that all information is accurately entered according to APA 6th Edition guidelines. The chart below outlines key fields that should be completed for various types of references wherever possible.
Finally, generate and submit the output file.
