About This Journal

Educational Research & Practice (ERP) is a gold open-access journal publishing empirical and theoretical research on teaching, learning, curriculum, and education policy across all sectors — from early childhood through higher education. The journal is committed to methodological pluralism and actively seeks to close the gap between academic research and classroom practice.

Aims & Scope

ERP publishes research across the full spectrum of formal and informal education:

• Teaching and learning processes: cognitive, social, and emotional dimensions
• Curriculum design, development, and evaluation
• Assessment theory and practice: formative, summative, and authentic assessment
• Technology-enhanced learning: e-learning, MOOCs, AI tutoring, and educational data mining
• Teacher education and professional development
• Educational leadership and school effectiveness
• Higher education: student transitions, academic writing, graduate outcomes
• Early childhood education and care
• Special education, inclusive practices, and differentiated instruction
• Education policy: school reform, accountability systems, and equity
