Editorial Policy and Contributions

Editorial Policy and Contributions The Australian Journal of Education publishes research and scholarship bearing on the pro- vision of education. It has special interest in papers that constitute innovations in theories, methodologies and other ways of understanding education, and also in papers that are directed towards improvements in education policies and practices. Refl ecting the charac- ter of education studies as a fi eld of knowledge, contributions are drawn from a range of disciplines and inter-disciplinary approaches. The AJE is interested in quantitative, qualita- tive and interpretative work, and in the development of rigorous and useful intersections and interrogations between different modes of thought. As an Australian-specifi c journal, the AJE contributes to the global fi eld of educa- tion studies by publishing, at the highest levels of quality, signifi cant papers drawn from Australian programs of research and scholarship, and/or papers about Australian education, thereby bringing the distinctive strengths of Australian education into global exchange. The journal also encourages international contributions, cross-border refl ections and comparisons, and discussion of global relations in education. The bulk of the articles published in the AJE are single papers, contributed by authors or invited by the editor. From time to time the journal publishes special issues, consisting of local and international papers focused on a particular topic. The AJE is an ISSI-listed journal.

Abstract

The Australian Journal of Education publishes research and scholarship bearing on the pro- vision of education. It has special interest in papers that constitute innovations in theories, methodologies and other ways of understanding education, and also in papers that are directed towards improvements in education policies and practices. Refl ecting the charac- ter of education studies as a fi eld of knowledge, contributions are drawn from a range of disciplines and inter-disciplinary approaches. The AJE is interested in quantitative, qualita- tive and interpretative work, and in the development of rigorous and useful intersections and interrogations between different modes of thought. As an Australian-specifi c journal, the AJE contributes to the global fi eld of educa- tion studies by publishing, at the highest levels of quality, signifi cant papers drawn from Australian programs of research and scholarship, and/or papers about Australian education, thereby bringing the distinctive strengths of Australian education into global exchange. The journal also encourages international contributions, cross-border refl ections and comparisons, and discussion of global relations in education. The bulk of the articles published in the AJE are single papers, contributed by authors or invited by the editor. From time to time the journal publishes special issues, consisting of local and international papers focused on a particular topic. The AJE is an ISSI-listed journal.
