JIME is currently encouraging new submissions under the general themes included in the journal¹s scope. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit original contributions of no more than 7500 words including all references and citations on any of the following themes:

• The implications and use of digital media in education.
• Multidisciplinary considerations of the theory and practice of interactive media in education.
• The cognitive, social, and cultural issues raised by the use of digital media in higher education.
• Open educational practices (OEP) and open educational resources (OER)
• Learning and teaching through interactive media

All submissions are initially evaluated by an Editor, who decides whether or not the article fits the scope of the journal and is suitable for peer review. If the submission does not fit the scope of the journal, or it appears to be too low quality, a submission may be rejected at this initial stage, with feedback given to the author. Submissions considered suitable are assigned to one or more independent experts, who review the article for clarity, validity, and sound methodology.

Please consult the Author Guidelines for further details on how to submit an article.
