Aims & Scope

The Journal of Pedagogical Research (JPR) is a peer-reviewed, international, and multidisciplinary open-access journal dedicated to advancing knowledge, theory, and methodology in the fields of learning, instruction, teaching, and development. JPR welcomes submissions from around the world that contribute to scholarly discourse and address the diverse complexities of educational contexts and practices.

The journal primarily focuses on original research but also considers high-quality conceptual and review articles, provided they do not exceed 20% of the total content in any given volume. Submissions should reflect principled applications of qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methodological paradigms and be relevant to an international readership. Emphasis is placed on the significance of the contribution to its field, methodological rigor, and the strength of conceptual grounding in analysis and discussion.

JPR is committed to publishing studies that explore the dynamic realities of formal and informal educational settings, spanning all levels of formal education and diverse modes of informal learning across the lifespan. Articles may address practical and policy implications for education but must be grounded in robust research and theoretical frameworks. The journal also encourages interdisciplinary perspectives and contributions from varied research traditions.

By providing a platform for high-quality research, JPR aims to foster critical dialogue and innovation in educational scholarship, reflecting the evolving challenges and opportunities within the global educational landscape. JPR will publish research that covers topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Children with Special Needs

  • Counselor Education
