Aims, scope and focus

By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Online and Blended Learning, Technology-Enhanced Education Studies and Educational Technology and E-Learning, together about 48.2% of its articles. Its main subfields are Education and Information Systems. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
JEO features theoretical and empirically-based research articles, critical reflection pieces, case studies, and classroom innovations relevant to technology-mediated learning (including teaching, learning, assessment, pedagogy, content and organizational issues) in higher education. Manuscripts must be appropriately grounded within relevant literature and justified with theory, evidence, and/or research; qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods are appropriate. JEO prioritizes research that offers broadly generalizable insights into technology-mediated teaching and learning in higher education. Studies that focus on a specific discipline, population, or institutional context without clear implications beyond that setting may not align with the journal’s mission. Submissions should contribute to the wider understanding of digital pedagogy, online education, and technology-enhanced learning across diverse higher education environments.
