Journal of Computer Assisted Learning
MirandaNet's aims and objectives closely mirror those of JCAL, as this extract from JCAL's web site will show.
The Journal of Computer Assisted Learning is a quarterly, peer-reviewed, international journal which covers the whole range of uses of information and communication technology to support learning and knowledge exchange. It aims to provide a medium for communication between researchers and the practitioners and to foster collaborative research. It is a rich source of material for research students in areas such as collaborative learning, knowledge engineering, open, distance and networked learning, developmental psychology and evaluation. The research themes are treated in a way which will maximise their influence on developments and practice in education, vocational training and professional development. Each volume includes one, sometimes, two Special Issues and these provide readers with an in-depth perspective on a specific topic.
First published in 1985, JCAL continues to have the aim of making the outcomes of contemporary research and experience accessible. During this period there have been major technological advances offering new opportunities and approaches in the use of a wide range of technologies to support learning and knowledge transfer more generally. There is currently much emphasis on the use of network functionality and the challenges its appropriate uses pose to teachers/tutors working with students locally and at a distance.
