Journal of Education for Teaching(JET) publishes original, significant and rigorous contributions to the field of education, both initial and continuing, of teachers. The journal interprets ’teacher education’ in the widest sense, to include articles from or about the work of academic staff involved with, and responsible for, initial teacher education, continued professional development and the broad field of research into the contribution of the higher education sector contribution to the education of teachers.
JET welcomes scholarly discussions of new issues in the field, which would include original and rigorous analyses of the policies and practices involved in preparing people to work in education at any level. JET publishes theoretical, conceptual and qualitative or quantitative empirical studies, funded research projects and review articles, presented as a critical assessment of the material summarised.
Two types of papers are published in JET: substantive research papers of up to 6,000 words, and short pieces of up to a strict limit 1,000 words describing Research-in-Progress. Research-in-Progress pieces present preliminary findings of a larger project still underway, heralding substantive papers to come.

Understanding and using journal metrics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors
who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication.
However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s
quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it
should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to
support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside
other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its
readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In
addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and
never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
Usage and acceptance rate data above are for the last full calendar year
and are updated annually in February. Speed data is updated every six
months, based on the prior six months. Citation metrics are updated
annually mid-year. Please note that some journals do not display all of
the following metrics
(find out why).
Usage:
the total number of times articles in the journal were viewed by users
of Taylor & Francis Online in the previous calendar year, rounded to the
nearest thousand.
