Aims & Scope

Pedagogical Research and Development is an international refereed, online open access journal which publishes to introduce basic Pedagogical concepts and tools for Pedagogical review and analysis. It is a journal that employs education to analyse issues in pedagogical, educational, linguistic, and public policy. The Journal of Pedagogical Research and Development is interested in manuscripts that explain pedagogical phenomena through a description and analysis of the formal and informal rules that can impact upon education and welcomes submissions of research that explore key variables such as teacher-directed instruction, student engagement, and theories of learning. A variety of analytical approaches, including those borrowed from disciplines such as history, philosophy, psychology, anthropology, systems theory, biology and evolutionary science, network theory, sociology, law, geography, and neuroscience, are acceptable, so long as the institutional environment (as opposed to the optimizing agent) constitutes the main object of inquiry. The journal also publishes occasional special issues. Its special thematic issues contribute to the confrontation of scholarly perspectives on overlooked problems – a must-read for faculty, doctoral and graduate students.

Subject Areas

Pedagogical Research and Development consistently covers a wide array of subject areas, Curriculum & Teaching Studies, Education Policy, Educational Assessment & Evaluation, Educational Leadership & Management, Educational Psychology & Counselling, Information & Communications Technology in Education, International & Comparative Education, Professional Education & Training, Student Learning, Childhood & Voices and Teacher Education & Development. Pedagogical Research and Development welcomes papers based on original research, critical policy debates and comparative analyses. Submissions and subscriptions are open to all.
