The International Journal of Educational Realities (I-JER) is a peer-reviewed scholarly online journal dedicated to advancing rigorous understanding of educational practices as they occur in real-world settings. Unlike journals that prioritize exclusively positive or idealized outcomes, the I-JER values research that captures the complexities, challenges, and authentic experiences within educational contexts. Our mission is to provide a platform for studies that illuminate the nuanced realities of teaching, learning, and educational policy, presenting evidence that reflects both successes and difficulties in a balanced and thoughtful manner.
The I-JER welcomes empirical research that investigates the real-world dynamics of classrooms, schools, and educational systems. We encourage submissions that reveal practical insights, highlight areas for improvement, and foster informed dialogue on educational practice. By reporting concrete evidence, including findings that may be neutral, mixed, or challenging, I-JER aims to provide a realistic and comprehensive understanding of contemporary educational realities.
Submissions to the I-JER are accepted on a rolling basis and undergo continuous peer review. Manuscripts can be submitted at any time, and the review process proceeds promptly. Accepted research is compiled into an annual issue, supporting the journal's commitment to high-quality academic curation.
All submissions must be original, unpublished, and not under consideration elsewhere. Manuscripts cannot be withdrawn without the approval of the editorial office during any stage of the review or production process.
- Initial Screening: Typically completed within 1 ~ 2 weeks.
- Double-Blind Review: Typically takes approximately 1 ~ 2 months.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that manuscripts meet high standards of academic quality and conform to APA 7th edition style guidelines. Papers failing to meet these standards may be rejected during initial screening or at any subsequent stage of review.
