Fall 2026 Theme Issue
The Pennsylvania Principals Association invites educators and school leaders to submit articles for the Fall 2026 theme issue of The Pennsylvania Administrator magazine.
Theme: Balancing Screens and Learning
As technology becomes increasingly integrated into education, schools must balance the benefits of digital learning with the need to support students’ academic, social and emotional development. This issue will explore how screen time influences learning, engagement, concentration and well-being, as well as how teachers use digital tools for writing, research, collaboration, feedback and creativity while also recognizing when students benefit most from discussion, hands-on learning and time away from screens. The theme also examines the evolving role of technology in today’s classrooms and how schools can leverage it responsibly and effectively.
The Editorial Review Board welcomes articles that address topics such as:
- What is the appropriate balance of screen time in schools?
- What are the benefits and challenges of technology-enhanced learning?
- How do educators perceive the role of technology in instruction?
- How is artificial intelligence (AI) reshaping teaching and learning practices?
- How are schools and districts responding to AI? Have policies, guidelines or implementation plans been developed? If so, for which grade levels?
Articles aligned with the theme will be considered for publication. We encourage submissions that share innovative practices, research, lessons learned and practical strategies from schools and districts across Pennsylvania.
We look forward to hearing your voice and sharing your expertise with educational leaders across the Commonwealth.
To submit an article for this issue, please send it to Sheri Thompson at sherit@paprincipals.org by August 14, 2026.
