I think it all depends on what we mean by "academic journal."
There are lots of journals out there. On Gordon's list (thanks!)
I noticed journals such as Primary Voices, a journal from
the National Council of Teachers of English, that is mainly
intended to reach classroom teachers. The journal goes
through an external review process and publishes themed issues
only. I'd say the language is more accessible (oops! almost
said "softer"--meaning less technical) yet the content is
something I'd call empirically based. So just what is an
"academic journal"???
