The Australasian Journal of Educational Technology is a refereed academic journal publishing research and review articles in educational technology, information and communications technologies for education, online and e-learning, educational design, multimedia, computer assisted learning, and related areas.

The Canadian Journal of Learning and Technology is a peer-reviewed journal that welcomes papers on all aspects of educational technology and learning. Topics may include, but are not limited to: learning theory and technology, cognition and technology, instructional design theory and application, online learning, computer applications in education, simulations and gaming, and other aspects of the use of technology in the learning process. Manuscripts may be submitted either in English or in French.

Educational Technology & Society seeks academic articles on the issues affecting the developers of educational systems and educators who implement and manage such systems. The articles should discuss the perspectives of both communities and their relation to each other:

* Educators aim to use technology to enhance individual learning as well as to achieve widespread education and expect the technology to blend with their individual approach to instruction. However, most educators are not fully aware of the benefits that may be obtained by proactively harnessing the available technologies and how they might be able to influence further developments through systematic feedback and suggestions.
* Educational system developers and artificial intelligence (AI) researchers are sometimes unaware of the needs and requirements of typical teachers, with a possible exception of those in the computer science domain. In transferring the notion of a 'user' from the human-computer interaction studies and assigning it to the 'student', the educator's role as the 'implementer/ manager/ user' of the technology has been forgotten.

The journal features research findings, practical articles, book and software reviews, and commentary on topics of interest to those educators and others. The online format allows for the inclusion of multimedia elements as well. For more information, see the author guidelines page.

The refereed journal is a product of the College of Education at Idaho State University.

The journal uses a rolling publication format for each volume. Articles are published throughout the year.

The Journal of Distance Education is an international publication of the Canadian Network for Innovation in Education (CNIE). It aims to promote and encourage Canadian scholarly work in distance education and provide a forum for the dissemination of international scholarship.

Online double-blind peer review scholarly journal in the broad area of Computer Mediated Learning (CML) which includes distance, online, electronic, virtual, distributed, blended and mobile learning. Computer-mediated learning occurs when an individual interactively learns (formally or informally, synchronously or asynchronously) about material via computer means where the learning materials and pedagogy are developed to take advantage of the available technologies.



Our audience are educators, policy-makers and students interested in the development, delivery, and management of computer mediated learning in the Arts, Business, Engineering, Law, Medicine, Sciences and Social Sciences. The areas of pedagogy, content, technical and organizational issues are within the scope of the journal.

Focuses on providing a venue for manuscripts, critical essays, and reviews that encompass disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives in regards to issues related to higher-level learning outcomes.

* To foster a multidisciplinary and intellectually rigorous debate on the theoretical and practical aspects of interactive media in education.

* To clarify the cognitive, social and cultural issues raised by the use of interactive media in education.

* To radically improve teaching and learning through better interactive media.

* To publish leading international research on the theories, practices and experiences in the field.

* To link scholars and commercial practitioners

* Through its innovative use of interactive Net-based media, to be an action research project which explores the changing face of journals, and more broadly, scholarly practice in the age of digital publishing and communication.
