Scholarly Fit

Manuscripts must address a substantial question in elementary education, apply a defensible methodology, critically engage with relevant evidence, and articulate a meaningful contribution. Routine classroom reports, uncritical literature summaries, and product descriptions without adequate evaluation generally fall outside the journal’s scope.

Eligible Manuscripts

Original Research Articles
Transparent and ethical empirical studies using suitable quantitative, qualitative, mixed-methods, action-research, research and development, or design-based approaches.
Review Articles
Systematic, scoping, meta-analytic, or other rigorous critical evidence syntheses with transparent methods.
