Keeping abreast of the latest in education research can be a daunting and difficult task.
With hopes of making the research task a little easier, we’ve collected links to some of the best academic journals in the world.
We offer links to journals that are focused on education (broadly defined) though you may also want to take a look at our links to journals that focus more on language teaching and linguistics or those that focus on play and games.
If you feel that we’re missing a journal or would like to add your own, please contact us and we’ll be happy to add it to the list.

The purpose of the International Journal of Educational Development is to foster critical debate about the role that education plays in development. IJED seeks both to develop new theoretical insights into the education-development relationship and new understandings of the extent and nature of educational change in diverse settings. It stresses the importance of understanding the interplay of local, national, regional and global contexts and dynamics in shaping education and development. Orthodox notions of development as being about growth, industrialisation or poverty reduction are increasingly questioned. There are competing accounts that stress the human dimensions of development. The notion of development itself is highly contested, both as a theoretical construct and in its policy and programme manifestations. Education is prominent in approaches to and critiques of development. Here too perspectives vary. Education is expected to promote competitiveness and productivity; reduce inequality, poverty and disease; mitigate conflict and crisis; and promote human capability and achieve social justice. At the same time, education is also criticised for fostering hostility; entrenching difference; jeopardising local values and culture; and for its own use of control and violence. The International Journal of Educational Development is concerned with education in its broadest sense, including informal and non-formal modes, and skills development. IJED is primarily interested in studies that are focused on lower and middle income settings. It also considers papers that look at the relationship between education and development in other contexts or at the role that developed countries play in education and development through their policies and practices of aid and trade. The International Journal of Educational Development welcomes papers from all prospective authors and especially from scholars who come from low and middle income countries.

Such understanding requires a careful analysis of learning in social context, and of the communicative processes involved. In-depth studies of interaction in schools (in various subjects and settings), universities, work-places, voluntary organizations, public agencies, hospitals, laboratories and other institutional settings will be welcome, as well as studies of informal settings such as everyday conversations, play settings, youth clubs, games and other cultural practices. Longitudinal studies of learning trajectories are relevant as are analyses of contexts and interactional patterns that hinder learning. The important point is that the relationships between cultures, social interaction and learners (and teachers) are in focus. The term 'interaction' includes forms of communication which take place through technologies of various kinds (telephone, the Internet, presentation technologies and so on). Interaction between people and artefacts, insofar as they address learning, are also relevant. Thus, the focus is not exclusively on face-to-face interaction. Also, issues of collective forms of learning characterizing systematic change, institutional development and communities of practice are central for the journal. The journal is multidisciplinary and invites scholars from relevant disciplines including psychology, anthropology, linguistics, sociology, communication studies and all areas of educational research. Data may come from ethnographies, experimental approaches, intervention studies, case studies, interviews, questionnaires, self-reports, cross-cultural comparisons, archives etc. Articles of different kinds will be welcome: reports of empirical research, theoretically orientated analyses, contributions to method, literature reviews, meta-analyses of research etc. There will be no restrictions when it comes to age levels or social settings. A strong expectation will be that authors write clearly and accessibly for an international and multidisciplinary audience. Publishes 4 issues per year. ISSN 2210-6561
