About this journal
Aims and scope
Pedagogies: An International Journal provides a forum for discussions on how educators might improve teaching and learning in formal and informal settings. It brings together emergent and groundbreaking work on pedagogy in response to transforming communities and student bodies, new knowledge and forms of communication. Articles range from analyses, discussions, debates, reviews and studies of the most tenacious and perennial educational issues such as teaching to diversity, innovative engagements with new technologies, new repertoires of teacher practice, and preparation of students for emergent forms of civic, workplace, and community life. Artificial Intelligence, sustainability, inclusive learning, neurodiversity, citizenship education, student-centred learning and STEAM in relation to pedagogies are some examples of current topics of interest.
The journal welcomes submissions on issues of teaching and learning in any content area or discipline. Research reporting on communities or contexts underrepresented in the production of academic knowledge is especially welcome.
While Pedagogies welcomes submissions regardless of methodological approach, we expect all manuscripts to include a nuanced consideration and rich discussion of results in relation to the research and broader context of teaching and learning. Though we prioritise empirical work, purely theoretical manuscripts will also be considered.We would welcome manuscripts on:
- Adult Education and Lifelong Learning
- Classroom Practice
- Continuing Professional Development
- Teachers & Teacher Education
- Teaching & Learning
- Early childhood education
- Informal education
- Higher education
- K-12 education
We currently accept five types of submission:
- Full-length research articles (6,000-8,000 words)
- State-of-the-art literature reviews (6,000-8,000 words)
- Class notes (2,000-3,000 words)
- By-invitation commentaries (3,000-4,000 words)
- Book reviews (1,500-2,000 words)

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.
For more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics.
