This document provides information on STEM education publications that may be of interest to DR-K12 grantees for the purposes of (1) disseminating knowledge and products and (2) developing partnerships with stakeholders and end users. These publications were chosen because they provide researchers and developers with an opportunity to present their work to individuals that could use, promote, or improve the work. We gave preference to organizations and publications that target practitioners and policymakers, though we also included some focused on the research and academic communities. Information for this index was collected primarily from organization websites. Manuscript submission guidelines and notes were provided as available on the websites. We made our best attempt to identify whether submissions were peer-reviewed, though some publications were not explicitly clear on this matter.
