Aims and Scope
The Journal of Issues and Practice in Education (JIPE) is a property of the Open University of Tanzania and is operated by the Faculty of Education. It is a peer-reviewed journal that provides an international forum for the sharing, dissemination, and discussion of educational issues. It publishes articles based on empirical research and reviews. The journal welcomes contributions from a wide range of areas of education. The focus areas include educational policy, special education, adult education, educational leadership and administration, childhood education, educational psychology, educational philosophy, education technology, counselling in education, teacher education, etc. The contribution can focus on teaching, development, instruction, innovations, learning methodologies, and new technologies in education and learning. Original research articles: We receive research articles that substantially contribute to research practice or policy in any educational research area. Research articles are contributions that publish original, unpublished research. They should be between 3000 and 8000 words, excluding tables, Figures, and references. The original research article should follow the conventional structure: introduction, methodology, results/findings, and discussion. However, JIPE allows some flexibility. Book Reviews: The Journal of Issues and Practice in Education (JIPE) invites original and insightful book reviews that comprehensively survey one or several books. Book reviews should include detailed synopses and evaluations of the books and give an account of the books’ aims, strengths, and limitations. As appropriate, the review should critically evaluate the books' contributions to the field of education. Book reviews should be about 1000-2000 words.
