Editorial Note
Zaria Journal of Educational Studies (ZAJES) is an official academic journal published by the Federal University of Education in Zaria, Nigeria. The journal was established in 1988, when the college was still part of Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Since its inception, ZAJES has served as an important platform for scholars and practitioners in various fields of education to publish research findings, perspectives, and responses to prior work. Recognising the journal’s high standards, the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TETFund) of Nigeria sponsored the production of its issues in 2010.
Mission
The mission of the ZAJES is to promote and disseminate high-quality research in education. The journal seeks to publish papers that are theoretically sound, methodologically rigorous, and relevant to the needs of the educational community. ZAJES also aims to provide a forum for exchanging ideas and perspectives on the most pressing issues in education.
Scope
ZAJES welcomes submissions on any topic related to education. To help readers easily find relevant papers, the articles were grouped into five broad subject areas.
• Arts and Social Science Education
• language and Literature Education
• Science and Mathematics Education
• Trends and Innovations in Education
• Vocational and Technical Education
Peer Review Process
All papers submitted to ZAJES underwent an initial online similarity check (plagiarism test) and only considered articles with 15% or less online similarity results and 5% same source similarity level. Accepted papers are further subjected to a rigorous peer review process. Each study was reviewed by at least two experts in the field. The reviewers provide feedback on the strengths and weaknesses of the paper and recommended revisions. The editors of ZAJES then decide whether to accept or reject the paper.
Publication Process
Accepted papers are published on two issues annually. The journal is indexed in several major bibliographic databases.
