Aim & Scope

The aim of Cumhuriyet International Journal of Education is to contribute to science with interdisciplinary studies/ research article in the field of education, to identify changes and needs in the field of education with a universal perspective and to produce original solutions, to be a resource provider for institutions and organizations in the field of education and program developers, and to provide multi-faceted support to the field of education by including studies prepared in Turkish and English in these fields.


Cumhuriyet International Journal of Education (CIJE) emphasizes education-based scientific ideas that will provide direction to global and regional developments in education and find solutions to problems by following the changes in science and technology. It aims to bring together qualified and original scientific studies that aim to ensure the formation of educational approaches that adapt developing knowledge and skills to education and thus contribute to the education system.

CIJE encourages high quality research-based qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods studies on disciplinary/interdisciplinary learning, career planning, professional development processes, family involvement in education and lifelong learning covering early childhood, primary, secondary, high school and university levels.

The studies that CIJE prioritizes are as follows:
- Linking theory and practice and supporting teacher training processes,
- Transferring the thoughts of students, parents, teachers, administrators in natural educational environments to well-designed studies,
- Evaluating local policies, programs and innovations from an international perspective,
- Helping to develop new educational models, measurement tools, interdisciplinary research designs,
- Combining learning environments with technology,
- Interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary studies,
- Educational measurement tools that are based on strong rationales and adequate statistical analysis are developed,
- Involving the integration of technology to help improve educational practices,
- Develops and evaluates a new theoretical or practical educational model,
- Supporting teachers' professional development processes.

*Studies that have at least one of the following characteristics will not be included in the evaluation process.

The following types of work are outside the focus of CIJE:
- Analysis of textbooks
- Simple quantitative studies with only one independent variable (e.g. the effect of variable x on variable y),
- Simple qualitative or quantitative studies using only one data collection tool (e.g., analyses based on demographic variables only, research using only interviews or scales),
- Studies based solely on the views of participants,
- Quantitative studies that were not conducted on a sufficient number of samples (In such studies, the formulas accepted in the literature should be taken into consideration and the minimum sample size limit should be determined depending on the population),
- Studies that measure the attitudes, behaviors, etc. that university students form towards a course they take,
- Studies that have a limited scope, are based on local knowledge and do not contribute to the international literature (e.g. scale adaptation and development studies that aim to measure knowledge limited to local conditions that will not have international validity, or studies that produce limited knowledge that does not have meaningful generalizability),

-Studies that are outside the focus of educational sciences (For example, studies such as nursing education, engineering education, architecture education are outside the focus of our journal),
- Studies conducted with weak scientific methodology and low validity and reliability (For example, studies that do not conduct content analysis even though they are called content analysis, studies with poor quality of quantitative/qualitative data analysis),
- Studies whose place and importance in the literature are not clearly explained (For example, studies that do not explain the contribution of the study to the literature on the relevant subject, its theoretical place and infrastructure in a qualified way).
