About the journal
The Australasian Journal of Educational Technology is a refereed academic journal publishing research and review articles in educational technology, information and communications technologies for education, online and e-learning, educational design, multimedia, computer assisted learning, and related areas. AJET is published by the Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education (ASCILITE). Prior to Volume 20, 2004, AJET was published under the title Australian Journal of Educational Technology.
AJET invites submissions of articles in the length range 5000-8000 words. Original contributions are welcome from writers in any organisation in any country, and membership of a supporting society is not a requirement for submissions. Articles are subjected to peer review on a double blind, confidential basis by at least two referees from AJET's Panel of Reviewers. AJET is a recognised peer reviewed journal listed in Ulrich's Periodicals Directory. Australian authors may note that articles published in AJET earn the classification "Journal Article" (previously known as "C1" category) for the purposes of DEST's Higher Education Research Data Collection, and AJET appears in DEST's Register of Refereed Journals.
In December 2007 AJET announced the retirement of its printed version, the last printed issue being Volume 23, Number 4. Henceforth AJET will be an open access, online only journal, ISSN 1449-5554.
Instructions to Authors
Advice for authors on submitting articles
Purposes of this adviceThe most immediate purpose for this advice is to facilitate reading of submissions by AJET's editors and reviewers. There is also a longer term purpose, in the case of articles that are accepted after review, which is facilitating fast and efficient production of high standard HTML and PDF files for publication on AJET's website. We hope that the importance of these purposes is readily evident. For example, if Reviewers encounter difficulties in reading your work, their ratings may be more severe, no matter how hard we try to give you a 'fair reading notwithstanding...'
Some parts of this document are concerned with conditions of acceptance, for example in the section on copyright, which authors should note carefully. Parts of the advice in this document have been adapted from advice prepared for ASCILITE 2004 by Roger Atkinson and the Conference's Program Committee (ASCILITE, 2004). These parts, mostly concerned with Formatting your document, are not mandatory, and there is considerable scope for flexibility, alternatives and negotiation. However, the handling of your submission through review, revision and, if successful, production processes, will be expedited if your submission conforms reasonably with a set of standards.
You should make a carefully considered judgment about the appropriateness of AJET for submission of your work. Our readers expect that AJET articles will centre upon teaching and learning as facilitated by technologies. If in doubt, please spend some time scanning articles previously published in AJET, or in closely related publications such as ASCILITE's Conference Proceedings, http://www.ascilite.org.au/conferences.html.
The usual length of an AJET article is 5000-8000 words (MS Word count) but occasionally lengths outside this range are accepted. Normally submissions to AJET should be unpublished and not under consideration by another journal or for a conference proceedings, except that self published articles from an institutional or personal website may be considered, and ASCILITE and other Conferences may arrange republication in AJET as a special recognition for an outstanding work. [FAQs:Republication]
In its business approach, AJET is non-profit, professional society journal aligned with open access principles. AJET relies extensively on the honorary work of volunteer editors and reviewers, supported by ASCILITE and NetSpot [NetSpot] sponsorship of the website. AJET does not charge authors for reviewing, does not charge or pay authors for publishing their articles, and does not seek any subscription income. AJET's print version was retired at the end of 2007, for cost minimisation and conservation reasons.
