Focus and Scope

FOCUS

This journal focuses on advancing scientific research in the field of learning and instruction, providing a platform for the dissemination of high-quality studies related to learning processes, development, instruction, and teaching. The journal welcomes original empirical research that explores various theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches to better understand how individuals acquire knowledge and skills. The focus extends across all age groups, from infants to adults, and covers a wide range of learning environments, including formal education settings (schools, universities, training programs), informal learning contexts, and experimental laboratory studies. By emphasizing innovative and impactful contributions, this journal aims to bridge the gap between research and practice, fostering a deeper understanding of effective learning strategies, instructional methods, and educational interventions, with a particular emphasis on the Indonesian context and global perspective.

SCOPE

The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

Instruction

The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

Instruction refers to the systematic design and delivery of educational experiences that facilitate learning. Research in this area explores various instructional models, strategies, and interventions that enhance knowledge acquisition, skill development, and student engagement. Studies may focus on instructional effectiveness, curriculum design, differentiated instruction, and evidence-based teaching methods. Additionally, this scope includes investigations into how instructional approaches impact diverse learners, including students with special needs, multilingual learners, and those in different cultural and educational contexts.

Learning and Teaching

This area examines the dynamic interaction between learners and educators, focusing on the cognitive, social, and emotional processes involved in knowledge transfer. Research in learning and teaching covers diverse pedagogical theories, teaching methodologies, student motivation, and assessment practices. It also explores how learners construct knowledge, develop critical thinking, and apply learning strategies in various subjects. The role of teachers in fostering active learning, scaffolding instruction, and adapting to students' needs is also central to this field.

Learning Environment

The learning environment encompasses the physical, psychological, and social conditions that influence the learning process. Research in this scope investigates how classroom settings, school culture, student-teacher relationships, and community involvement affect student outcomes. Studies may analyze traditional and innovative learning spaces, such as flexible classrooms, outdoor education, and virtual learning environments. Additionally, research may explore how inclusive and equitable learning environments contribute to student engagement, well-being, and academic success.

Teacher Education

Teacher education focuses on the preparation, training, and professional development of educators to enhance teaching quality and student achievement. Research in this area explores teacher training programs, pedagogical content knowledge, mentoring, and the effectiveness of professional learning communities. It also includes studies on teacher beliefs, identity formation, and strategies for improving teacher retention and resilience. Additionally, research may examine policies and reforms in teacher education to address the evolving demands of the educational landscape.
