Aims & Scope

The Asia Pacific Education Review (APER) seeks rigorous, high-quality educational research in all education-related fields. The journal aims to stimulate research, encourage academic exchange, and enhance the professional development of scholars and other researchers who are interested in educational issues within and beyond the Asia-Pacific region. All manuscripts should explicitly address educational topics using rigorous theoretical and empirical analysis. Papers from diverse disciplinary lenses (e.g., history, philosophy, political economy, psychology, sociology, etc.) are welcome. Importantly, the journal is not an area studies periodical but an educational research journal with expertise in and beyond the Asia-Pacific. The journal invites outstanding manuscripts using quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, and philosophical/conceptual approaches in the following areas: - Adult education and lifelong learning - Comparative and international education - Education, culture and society - Educational policy and social change - Educational and school psychology - Educational technology - Gifted education - Globalization, internationalization and education - Higher education - Innovative educational research methods - Teacher education - Educational counselling The journal does not accept manuscripts for TESOL/English Teaching, Subject Education (e.g., Math, Science, Biology, Physics, Engineering), and Early Childhood Education.
