Aims & Scope
Focus and Scope
Insight on Educational Mathematics (IEM) is a peer-reviewed, open-access scientific journal published by the Master's Program in Mathematics Education, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Islam Sultan Agung, Indonesia. The journal provides an academic platform for disseminating state-of-the-art knowledge and scholarly research in mathematics education. It seeks to represent the diversity of research questions, perspectives, and methodological approaches within the field.
IEM emphasizes the methodological, didactical, and sociocultural dimensions of mathematics teaching and learning rather than focusing exclusively on specific mathematics teaching programs. The journal welcomes diverse research approaches and prioritizes high-quality manuscripts that offer meaningful contributions beyond a purely local or national context.
Focus Areas
The focus and scope of Insight on Educational Mathematics include, but are not limited to, the following topics:
01. Realistic Mathematics Education
Research on Realistic Mathematics Education (RME), including its theoretical foundations, instructional design, and implementation.
02. Design and Development Research
Design, development, validation, and evaluation of learning approaches, materials, models, and interventions in mathematics education.
03. Mathematical Abilities
Mathematical reasoning, problem solving, communication, representation, and other mathematical competencies.
04. PISA and TIMSS
Research on PISA and TIMSS mathematics tasks, assessment frameworks, student performance, and implications for mathematics teaching and learning.
05. ICT and Educational Technology
Integration of information and communication technology, digital tools, and technology-enhanced environments in mathematics learning.
06. Mathematics Teacher Development
Teacher knowledge, professional learning, pedagogical practices, and the development of mathematics teachers' professional competencies.
07. Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment
Mathematics curriculum development, instructional design, teaching practices, assessment strategies, and evaluation of learning outcomes.
08. Ethnomathematics and Sociocultural Perspectives
Relationships between mathematics, culture, community practices, local knowledge, and the sociocultural dimensions of mathematics learning.
09. Psychology of Mathematics Learning
Developmental and educational psychology in mathematics education, including cognitive, affective, motivational, and metacognitive processes.
Out of Scope
IEM does not consider manuscripts that merely describe specific mathematics teaching programs without a clear theoretical contribution, or papers that are purely mathematical or psychological in nature without an explicit and substantive connection to mathematics education. All submissions must demonstrate originality, methodological rigor appropriate to the research design, and a meaningful scholarly contribution to the field.
Types of Manuscripts Accepted
IEM welcomes the following types of scholarly contributions, provided that they align with the journal's focus and scope:
Authors are encouraged to ensure that their manuscripts clearly demonstrate relevance to mathematics education, engage with appropriate scholarly literature, and articulate their contributions to research, theory, or educational practice.
