International Journal of Educational and Life Transitions
The International Journal of Educational and Life Transitions is an international peer reviewed journal which publishes articles and multimedia outputs of interest to researchers, practitioners and policy makers in the field of educational and life transitions across the world.
The Journal is interdisciplinary in approach, and publishes research studies (theoretical, conceptual, methodological and empirical), policy reviews, literature reviews, protocols, and multi-media and creative outputs. Multi-media can also be embedded in the articles.
Research involving more than one discipline, sector (e.g., academic and practitioner) and/or nation are particularly encouraged.
Some examples of multiple and multi-dimensional educational and life transitions include, but are not limited to transitions:
- to and through primary school
- to adulthood of disabled children and young people
- of international families
- from paediatric to adult services
- from hospital to community
- of LGBTQ+ young adults to and through employment
- of families who have experienced bereavement
- to parenthood of mothers with preterm babies
- of older adults towards age-friendly cities and communities
The focus within these transitions could, for example, be on educational, social, cultural and/or psychological adaptation in multiple contexts such as home, school, workplace and/or community.
