Las revistas educativas internacionales, ante el reto de su digitalización - elEconomista.es

[From Google Translate] International educational journals, facing the challenge of digitalization

They are the means par excellence when it comes to science. Especially when it comes to communicating results in this area. But the technological revolution has forced pedagogical research journals to reinvent themselves, in a short period of time, in order to maintain or expand their level of dissemination and facilitate access to their contents.

This is one of the main conclusions drawn from the meeting held this morning to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Revista Española de Pedagogía, published by the Universidad Internacional de La Rioja (UNIR). A day attended by the directors of some of the most qualified pedagogical research journals in the world, all of which belong to the Journal Citation Report (JCR).

The director of the Spanish Journal of Pedagogy and Vice-rector of Teaching Organization and Doctorate of UNIR, José Antonio Ibáñez-Martín, was in charge of presenting the session, which was divided into two round tables. Gerald Le tendre and Dana Mitra, from the American Journal of Education, were the first to present their experience, focusing on how to make "our paid magazine accessible, because there is a lot of competition in open content, although since we started our online forum we have detected an upward trend".
