Journal Guide

Education Research International is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research articles as well as review articles in all areas of education.

Education Sciences (ISSN 2227-7102) is a scholarly international open access journal. It publishes extended full-length research papers that have the scope to substantively address current issues in education. There is no restriction on the length of the papers relevant to any field of study within education. Submissions that synthesize information from disparate backgrounds, place research findings within a broad context, extend our methodological and theoretical understanding, and have the likelihood of informing education policy and practice, are preferred. The journal publishes quantitative, qualitative and mixed method research papers. Extended reviews of substantive research studies and/or technical reports published elsewhere are also welcome. Additionally, Education Sciences invites commentaries and original opinion pieces and/or analysis of issues and events of concern to education scholars that have international resonance. Our aim is to encourage researchers to publish their research in as much detail as possible. Full reports of findings and methodical details should be provided. Computed data or files, if available and unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material. Online features can take advantage of the variety of media made possible through electronic publishing, including the use of audio, video, complex or dynamic graphic displays, interactive sessions, performances, and other means to improve the communication of scholarly work. Features may be presented as a single article or in serial form.

Aims of the Editors:

It is our determination to develop this journal into a key international voice in the growing and significant field of education and information technologies.

This journal is a platform for the range of debates and issues that are current in our field. It is a broad field: we aim to provide perspectives at all levels, from the micro of specific applications or instances of use in classrooms to macro concerns of national policies and major projects: from classes of five year olds to adults in tertiary institutions: from teachers and administrators, to researchers and designers: from institutions to open, distance and lifelong learning. The strength of this breadth lies in the opportunity to raise and debate fundamental issues at all levels, to discuss specific instances and cases, draw inference and probe theory. This journal is embedded in the research and practice of professionals. It will not proselytise on behalf of the technologies but rather provoke debate on all the complex relationships between information and communication technologies and education.

As editors we are determined to maintain and expand the international standing of Education and Information Technologies by careful selection on merit of the papers submitted to us. Our goal is that we should provide an ongoing forum for debate. We shall occasionally produce special editions to enable us to cover particular issues at depth.We invite you, our readers, to send us papers on your work for consideration for inclusion, but also to comment and reflect upon the argument and opinions that we shall be publishing.

Publishes original articles and research reports in education, as well as book reviews, special documents, and translations made by teachers and researches from the University, and also from other institutions.

Education and Urban Society (EUS) is the preeminent journal for communicating new ideas on educational processes, controversies, research, and policy. It places special emphasis on the relationship between educators and society. It is an important outlet for the wide variety of disciplines studying today's educational systems and provides a multidisciplinary forum for communication among educators, educational administrators, school board, sociologists, anthropologists, and political scientists.

This peer-reviewed journal wishes to encourage international debate about change in schools, especially, but not only, schools in challenging contexts. This includes research relating to learning and teaching in the classroom, the curriculum, teacher professional development and the relationships between schools, their communities and the broader education system. The journal also publishes research on innovative programmes in pre-service teacher education. In general, articles on leadership and management are not the focus of the journal, unless they are related to curriculum leadership. Contributions are published mainly in the form of empirical research articles and original theoretical works, as well as book review articles.
