AUJEF aims to advance knowledge in educational sciences by publishing original, timely, and methodologically rigorous research that contributes to educational theory, policy, and practice. While the journal welcomes submissions from the broader field of education, it gives particular emphasis to teacher education and to studies that examine the preparation, professional development, practices, identities, and experiences of teachers across diverse educational contexts.
The journal is especially interested in manuscripts that offer clear conceptual, empirical, or methodological contributions to major areas of educational research, including curriculum and instruction, learning and teaching, assessment and evaluation, educational psychology, educational leadership, inclusive education, language education, educational technology, and other interdisciplinary issues relevant to educational processes and outcomes.
AUJEF seeks to foster international scholarly dialogue by publishing research that is not only methodologically sound but also intellectually meaningful and relevant to contemporary educational challenges. The journal values contributions that generate new insights, strengthen evidence-based educational practice, and enrich ongoing discussions in teacher education and the wider field of educational sciences. In this respect, AUJEF aims to connect local and regional educational concerns with broader international debates and research agendas.
The journal welcomes high-quality manuscripts based on quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method research designs. It also considers systematic reviews, meta-analyses, meta-syntheses, and other review studies that make a substantial contribution to the literature. Conceptual and argumentative papers may be considered when they present a strong theoretical contribution and demonstrate clear relevance to the field. Although AUJEF values diverse forms of scholarly inquiry, priority is given to original research articles. Authors who wish to submit to AUJEF are expected to consider the following principles:
• Manuscripts should address significant issues within educational sciences and demonstrate clear relevance to educational research, policy, or practice.
• The journal particularly welcomes submissions related to teacher education and closely connected domains of educational inquiry.
• AUJEF publishes in English only. All submissions must be prepared as full-text manuscripts in English. Manuscripts not submitted in English will be returned without review.
• The journal accepts quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method studies, as well as systematic reviews, meta-analyses, meta-syntheses, and other review-based contributions of high scholarly quality.
• Conceptual papers may also be considered if they provide a strong analytical or theoretical contribution to the field.
• AUJEF prioritizes original research articles and seeks to maintain a balanced and academically meaningful distribution between empirical and review-based publications.
