Call For Papers The Editors-in-Chief of the International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies (IJWLTT) would like to invite you to consider submitting a manuscript for inclusion in this scholarly journal. The following describes the mission, the coverage and the guidelines for submission to IJWLTT.
Mission The primary mission of the International Journal of Web-based Learning and Teaching Technologies (IJWLTT) (http://www.igi-pub.com/Bookstore/TitleDetails.aspx?TitleId=1081) is to contribute to the broadening of the overall body of knowledge regarding the multi-dimensional aspects of web-based technologies in contemporaneous educational contexts, assisting researchers, practitioners, and decision makers to design more effective learning systems and scenarios. International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies has been included in ProQuest's CSA Social Science Collection, the Library& Information Science Abstracts (LISA)! The journal seeks to explore the impact of Web-based technology on the design, implementation and evaluation of the learning and teaching process, as well as the development of new activities, relationships, skills, and competencies for the various actors implied in such processes.
Coverage The International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies (IJWLTT) focuses on the dimensions of reporting about developing new WBLT technologies and uses, and also sharing educational experiences and situations including (but not limited to) distance learning, collaborative work, constructivist approaches in on-line class-rooms, designing blended learning and programs, importance of dialogue in distance education programs, CSCL, network learning, etc. IJWLTT also covers aspects such as models and frameworks for the pedagogical design of courses including or supported by WBLT technologies, and for issuing and evaluating educational policies in institutions, and for organizing and managing training policies or departments in companies. Issues in methodologies for the training of teachers and trainers, for the building of multi-disciplinary teams for distance and on-line program administration and delivery are also included in the coverage.
Topics to be discussed in the journal include, but are not limited to the following: * Best practices * Building multi-disciplinary teams for Web-based learning and teaching * Building Web-based learning communities * Constructivist approaches to Web-based learning and teaching * Decision making in implementing Web-based learning and teaching * Knowledge building using Web-based learning and teaching technologies * Management side of Web-based learning and teaching * Network learning using WLTT * Project management for implementing WLTT * Related issues that impact the overall utilization and management of Web-based technologies in education * Web-based CSCL * Web-based technologies enabled pedagogical scenarios * Web-based technologies enabled pedagogical systems and programs * WLTT implementation: models, methods, and frameworks
