The Ohio Journal of School Mathematics is the journal of the Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics. It is intended to be a medium for teachers from elementary to college level to present their ideas and beliefs about the teaching and learning of mathematics. Mathematics educators at all levels are encouraged to submit manuscripts for upcoming issues of the Journal.

Embracing AI in the Publication Process
OJSM embraces the use of artificial intelligence (AI) as a tool to enhance the writing and communication process for both authors and editors.
OJSM’s Use of AI:
- Screening manuscripts for adherence to structural and content guidelines.
- Summarizing and communicating feedback from review panelists.
- Enhancing editorial communication with authors throughout the publication process.
Encouragement for Authors:
We strongly encourage authors to explore AI tools to enhance the quality of their submissions. AI can be used for:
- Brainstorming: Developing ideas and refining initial drafts.
- Proofreading and Editing: Improving grammar, structure, and coherence.
- Data Analysis: Interpreting, organizing, and reporting data.
- Consistency Checks: Ensuring alignment across sections of the manuscript.
Transparency:
To foster trust and accountability, authors must disclose any use of AI tools in their manuscript. Manuscripts coauthored with AI will be explicitly marked as such in publication.
