    The Journal of Language & Literacy Education is a peer-reviewed, open access journal housed in the Department of Language & Literacy Education in the College of Education at The University of Georgia.

    Since its inception in 2004, JoLLE has provided a space for scholars to engage readers in a broad spectrum of issues related to the field. As an online journal, we encourage submissions that incorporate multiple modes (i.e., photographs, artwork, video, and graphics).
