About the Journal
Kairos is a refereed open-access online journal exploring the intersections of rhetoric, technology, and pedagogy. Since its first issue in January of 1996, the mission of Kairos has been to publish scholarship that examines digital and multimodal composing practices, promoting work that enacts its scholarly argument through rhetorical and innovative uses of new media. As the longest continuously publishing online peer-reviewed journal in the field, Kairos is one of the premiere journals in English Studies, made so by its dedication to academic quality through the journal’s extensive peer-review and editorial production processes.
Submitting Your Work
Kairos promotes original and challenging electronic work, exploring the possibilities afforded by contemporary digital venues. Kairos publishes "webtexts," which means projects developed with specific attention to the World Wide Web as a publishing medium.
Kairos welcomes contributions from scholars pursuing a wide variety of digital issues, from theory to praxis. Kairos features seven sections: Topoi, Praxis, PraxisWiki, Inventio, Disputatio, Reviews, and Interviews. These sections have different approaches and different editorial policies. We ask that if you are considering submitting your work to Kairos, you first visit the various sections of the current (and previous) issue(s) to determine which section best matches your work.
Kairos uses an open review process. When submitting to the journal, there is no need to attempt to remove information about the author(s) or institutions referenced in the work. Reviewers will know authors’ names, and likewise, authors will know who reviewed their work.
