The Banneker Banner
The Banneker Banner is the official journal of the Maryland Council of Teachers of
Mathematics and is sent to all and only members of the organization. The journal is
named after Benjamin Banneker, a Maryland native and perhaps the first documented
African-American mathematician. The Banner is published twice each year and contains
a wide range of articles on issues in mathematics education at all levels. Articles
published in the journal must be submitted to the editor and undergo a peer review
process. The Banner also accepts advertising from companies that provide goods or
services we feel may be of interest to our members. Advertising in the Banner
reaches hundreds of mathematics educators in Maryland and is very affordable.
Submission Guidelines:
The Banner welcomes submissions from all members of the mathematics education
community, not just MCTM members. To submit an article, please attach a Microsoft
Word document to an email addressed to ljohnson2@bcps.org with “Banneker Banner
Article Submission” in the subject line. Photos or other figures accompanying the
article may be sent in other appropriate electronic formats. If electronic
submission is not possible, please contact the editor to make other arrangements.
You will receive confirmation of receipt of your article within a few days, and will
hear about the status of your article as soon as possible. Articles are sent out to
other mathematics educators for anonymous review, and this process often takes
several months. If you have questions about the status of your article during this
time, please feel free to contact the editor. Please note that photographs of
students require signed releases to be published; if your article is accepted, a
copy of the release will be sent to you and it will be your responsibility to get
the appropriate signatures. If you would like a copy of this form at an earlier
time, please contact the editor.
