About the Journal

Brief history of the magazine

Revista Educação was founded in 1978 and since 2016 has been exclusively online. It is an academic journal of the PUCRS School of Humanities, of excellent scientific publication, focused on the area of Education and published under the responsibility of PPGEDU. Its main purpose is to disseminate the original scientific production of Brazilian and foreign researchers, providing a dialogue between the different fields of education discussed worldwide.

Focus and Scope

Education Magazine accepts for publication articles related to different fields of Education, resulting from theoretical studies, research, reflections on reports of experiences or controversial and updated debates in the area. The texts, in Portuguese, Spanish or English, must be unpublished, by Brazilian or foreign authors. Research or experience reports should be turned into texts for publication in a scientific journal. The selection of articles for publication is based on their contribution to education within the journal's editorial line. Also the originality of the theme or treatment given to the subject, the consistency and rigor of the theoretical approach, as well as the quality of the text.

Peer Review Process

Submitted texts are formally evaluated first by the editorial staff, who may request corrections and additions. Texts that do not fit the scope of the Magazine, that do not meet mandatory requirements or that are not adequate within the deadline will be archived. Once the admissibility of the submission has been verified, two opinions are requested from people specialised in the subject, which will be used by the publishers, with the latter remaining the final decision. Publication of papers is subject to compliance with its recommendations. The evaluation takes into account the originality of the treatment of the theme, as well as the consistency and rigor of the approach, its contribution and its adequacy to the journal's thematic line. The review system is double-blind: the names of the reviewers will remain confidential and the names of the authors before the reviewers will also be omitted. Evaluators are expected to be objective in their assessment. If there is any conflict of interest or difficulty in making a judgment without significant influence from external factors, they should contact the editors. Expected to indicate relevant literature if not contemplated in the text. The text and other information provided in the evaluation process should be treated confidentially and may not be used for any other purpose.
