Aims and scope

The Journal of Research on Technology in Education (JRTE) is a premier source for high-quality, peer-reviewed research that defines the state of the art, and future horizons, of teaching and learning with technology. The terms "education" and "technology" are broadly defined. Education is inclusive of formal educational environments ranging from PK-12 to higher education, and informal learning environments, such as museums, community centers, and after-school programs. Technology refers to both software and hardware innovations, and more broadly, the application of technological processes to education.

JRTE publishes original empirical research (e.g., quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method designs), project descriptions/evaluations, systematic literature reviews (including meta-analyses), methodological reviews, policy analyses, and theoretical or conceptual positions that relate to the uses and innovative applications of technology in education. JRTE publishes the latest in research and critical analyses on technology in education for educational theorists, researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers. International in scope, the journal is published quarterly by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE).
