The American Annals of the Deaf is a scholarly journal dedicated to quality in education and related services for d/Deaf or hard of hearing children and adults. First published in 1847, the Annals is the oldest English-language journal dealing with deafness and the education of d/Deaf or hard of hearing persons. The Annals focuses primarily on the education of d/Deaf or hard of hearing students and on information for professionals associated with the educational development of these students. At the same time, the Annals historically has extended its range of topics beyond education and incorporated the broad interests of educators in the general well-being of d/Deaf or hard of hearing children and adults to represent the diversity of its professional readership. Among the topics covered in its pages are: Communication methods and strategies Language and literacy development Mainstreaming and residential schools Parent-child relationships Social and emotional development Teacher preparation and teaching skills Each year the Annals publishes four issues (Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter) and an annual reference issue of schools and programs in the United States and Canada for students who are d/Deaf or hard of hearing and their teachers. The reference issue is widely known for its comprehensive listings of schools and programs nationwide. The reference issue also provides demographic and educational data about students who are d/Deaf or hard of hearing and the schools they attend. The Annals considers the submission of scholarly articles that employ a range of research methodologies such as qualitative, quantitative, or critical (i.e., qualitative with a postmodern or power focus). Examples of research include historical, descriptive, correlational, and experimental investigations. Also encouraged are research syntheses or integrative works, including metadata or metanarrative analyses.
