International Journal of Education

International Journal of Education (IJE) is an international, double-anonymized peer-reviewed, open-access journal published quarterly by Macrothink Institute. The journal publishes original research on educational theory, policy, and practice across levels and contexts of education. It welcomes theoretical and empirical studies of teaching, curriculum, learning, assessment, inclusion, and institutional improvement.

Focus and Scope

The journal covers the following areas:

  • Curriculum and pedagogy
  • Teaching and learning
  • Educational policy and philosophy
  • Educational psychology
  • Higher and vocational education
  • Special and inclusive education
  • Educational assessment and research methods
  • Comparative and multicultural education
  • Literacy and bilingual education

The journal welcomes theoretical and empirical studies, including case studies, policy analyses, and evaluations that have clear implications for educational practice or policy.
