The Ahi Evran University Journal of Kırşehir Education Faculty (KEFAD) aims to be a leading platform in the field of educational sciences that shapes global and regional developments, integrates technological transformation with pedagogical depth, and offers evidence-based solutions to educational challenges.
The Journal aims to publish methodologically rigorous studies across all levels of education—from early childhood to higher education—addressing themes such as interdisciplinary learning, career planning, digital transformation, family involvement, and lifelong learning.
KEFAD gives priority not to studies presenting descriptive findings alone, but to original research with high citation potential—work that tests theoretical models, employs advanced statistical analyses (e.g., Structural Equation Modeling, Path Analysis), or achieves qualitative depth through longitudinal or phenomenological designs.
KEFAD gives priority to studies that:
-Establish a strong link between theory and practice and support teacher education processes;
-Provide an in-depth examination of educational administration, supervision, planning, and economics, including topics such as educational supervision, leadership, and school and classroom management;
-Convey the perspectives of students, parents, teachers, and administrators in naturalistic educational settings through well-designed research;
-Evaluate local policies, programs, and innovations from an international perspective;
-Contribute to the development of new educational models, measurement instruments, or interdisciplinary research designs;
-Integrate technology into learning environments;
-Adopt interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches (e.g., STEM);
-Develop educational measurement instruments grounded in strong theoretical justification and supported by adequate statistical analyses;
-Incorporate technology integration that contributes to the improvement of educational practice;
-Develop and evaluate new theoretical or applied educational models;
-Support teachers' professional development processes.
