== Author Copyright ==

[http://www.fieldsmathed.com/ Fields Matheamtics Education Journal]: FMEJ, started in 2015, is a SpringOpen Journal seeking to provide open access to a variety of topics of interest to an international mathematics education community. Submissions are double-blind peer-reviewed. Authors retain copyright and are subject to the [http://www.springeropen.com/authors/license_spr SpringerOpen copyright and license agreement]. Publishing charges are provided by the [http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/ Fields Institute in the Mathematical Sciences], the founding organization of the journal.

[http://www.cimt.plymouth.ac.uk/journal/default.htm International Journal for Mathematics Teaching and Learning]: IJMTL is a joint publishing effort between Plymouth University, UK, and the College of Nyiregyháza, Hungary. Their author guidelines say nothing about copyright, but authors are expected to do their own copy editing and formatting of their final article. Published articles make no mention of copyright or licensing, so it is assumed that authors retain copyright and have the right to assign a Creative Commons license if they wish.

[http://www.amstat.org/publications/jse/ Journal of Statistics Education]: JSE has been published by the [http://www.amstat.org/ American Statistical Association] since 1993 and clearly indicates the author's copyright on each article.

[http://ed-osprey.gsu.edu/ojs/index.php/JUME/index Journal of Urban Mathematics Education]: JUME is edited by David Stinson at Georgia State and appears to be one of the higher-quality open access efforts, publishing articles by William Tate, Rico Gutstein, Megan Staples, Jere Confrey, Michael Battista, Jo Boaler, and others. Authors retain copyright with first publication rights granted to JUME.

[http://scholarcommons.usf.edu/numeracy/ Numeracy]: This journal specializes in quantitative literacy and is hosted by the University of South Florida. Authors retain copyright under a [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license]. There are no publication charges.

[http://people.exeter.ac.uk/PErnest/ Philosophy of Mathematics Education Journal]: Edited by [[Paul Ernest]] at the University of Exeter, UK, this journal has existed since 1990 and the copyright notice reads: "All materials published herein remain copyright of the named author(s), or of the editor if unattributed. Permission is given to freely copy the journal contents on a not-for-profit basis, provided full credit is given to the author and the journal." This sounds much like a "legal lite" interpretation of a [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ Creative Commons Attribution - Non Commercial license]], although there's no explicit mention of derivative works.

[http://www.pythagoras.org.za/index.php/pythagoras Pythagoras]: This is the journal of the Association for Mathematics Education of South Africa, in existence since 1980. The copyright notice on a recent article indicates that the author retains the copyright and the work is licensed under a [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Creative Commons Attribution license].

[http://www.escholarship.org/uc/uclastat_cts_tise Technology Innovations in Statistics Education]: TISE is edited by Robert Gould at UCLA and authors retain copyright with publication under a [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ Creative Commons Attribution - Non Commercial - Share Alike license].

[http://elib.mi.sanu.ac.rs/pages/browse_publication.php?db=tm The Teaching of Mathematics]: This is published by the Mathematical Society of Serbia and makes no mention of copyright on their site or on published articles, so it may be assumed copyright would stay with the author.

== Publisher Copyright ==

[http://www.citejournal.org/ Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education]: Part of this journal includes articles about technology and mathematics education, with editorial review organized by [[Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators|AMTE]]. The publisher retains copyright to published articles.

[http://www.iejme.com/ International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education]: IEJME is published by Gökkuşağı, a Turkish publisher, and dates back to 2006. Their author guidelines don't say anything about who retains copyright of the published articles, but the journal itself indicates the copyright is held by Gökkuşağı.

[http://journals.tc-library.org/index.php/matheducation/ Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College]: This journal has a quality appearance and has published submissions from some well-known authors. The submission guideline page says nothing about copyright, but the journal itself and each article claims copyright for the publisher.

[http://ojs.jstem.org/ Journal of STEM Education]: This journal requires the author pay a fee ($395 for the first 8 pages and author's bio, then $35 for each additional page) and also requires the transfer of copyright.

[http://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~iase/publications.php?show=serj Statistics Education Research Journal]: This international journal appears to include a wide variety of content but requires authors to transfer copyright.

[http://math.coe.uga.edu/tme/tmeonline.html The Mathematics Educator]: TME is a student-produced journal from the University of Georgia and was first published in 1990. Despite the maturity of this journal, copyright is very unclear — the site says nothing about transferring copyright, and the journal itself claims copyright for the publisher in the front matter, but nothing on articles themselves, and articles are available individually.

[http://www.math.umt.edu/TMME/ The Mathematics Enthusiast]: Formerly known as the Montana Mathematics Enthusiast, this journal says nothing on the site about transferring copyright, but the articles themselves indicate a copyright held by the publisher.
