OnCUE Journal (ISSN 18820220) or OCJ is the main journal of the College and University Educators SIG. It is fully refereed and is published once or twice annually. The aim of OCJ is to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of research ideas and curriculum activities of broad interest to College and University language educators. Contributors to the journal do not have to be members of the CUE SIG.

Starting in 2021, the OnCUE Journal will be an online-only journal.

From The Chalkface

Articles in issues of OnCUE from 1999 to 2008 on pedagogical topics. Originally, articles described "lessons that worked", and later were accepted to "combine educational theory and practice". These have been copied separately from the individual journal issues so they may be collected in one place. They are longer than the My Share articles in JALT's The Language Teacher and served as a precursor to the CUE Circular, which started in 2016. Contact the CUE SIG Publications Chair for PDF copies.
