Aim & Scope

Ahi Evran University Journal of Kırşehir Education Faculty attaches importance to education-based scientific ideas that will enable us to direct global and regional developments in education and find solutions to problems by following the changes in science and technology. It aims to bring qualified and original scientific studies that aim to create educational approaches that adapt developing knowledge and skills to education, and thus contribute to the education system.

Ahi Evran University Journal of Kırşehir Education Faculty (KEFAD) encourages high quality studies which were conducted in the period of early childhood, primary school, secondary school, high school and university levels.

KEFAD cares researches with qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods on disciplinary/interdisciplinary learning, career planning, professional development processes, family participation in education and lifelong learning covering 

The activities prioritized by KEFAD are as follows:
• Establishing the link between theory and practice and supporting teacher training processes,
• Examines in depth the fields of educational management, supervision, planning and economics, as well as issues such as educational supervision, leadership, school and classroom management,
• Transferring the thoughts of students, parents, teachers and administrators in natural education environments into well-designed studies,
• Evaluates local policies, programs and innovations from an international perspective,
• Helping to develop new educational models, measurement tools, and interdisciplinary research designs,
• Combining learning environments with technology,
• Interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary studies (e.g. STEM),
• Educational measurement tools that are based on strong justifications and have adequate statistical analysis have been developed,
• Including the integration of technology to help improve educational practices,
• Developing a new theoretical or practical educational model and evaluating this model,
• Supporting teachers' professional development processes.

*Even though they have the above features, studies that contain at least one of the following features will not be included in the evaluation process.

The following types of work are outside the focus of KEFAD:
• Analysis of textbooks
• Simple quantitative studies conducted with only one independent variable (For example, the effect of variable x on variable y),
• Simple qualitative or quantitative studies conducted only through a data collection tool (For example, analyzes conducted only according to demographic variables, studies conducted only through interviews or scales),
• Studies based solely on the opinions of participants,
• Quantitative studies that have not been conducted on a sufficient number of samples (In such studies, accepted formulas in the literature should be taken into account and the minimum number of samples based on the population should be set.),
• Studies measuring the characteristics of university students' attitudes, behaviors, etc. towards a course they take.
• Studies that have limited scope, are based on local information and do not contribute to the international literature,
• Studies outside the focus of educational sciences (For example, studies such as nursing education, engineering education, architectural education are outside the publication focus of our journal.),
• Studies that were conducted with weak scientific methods and have low validity and reliability (For example, studies that were called content analysis but no content analysis was performed, studies with poor quality of quantitative/qualitative data analysis),
• Studies whose place and importance in the literature are not clearly explained (For example, studies whose contribution to the literature on the relevant subject, its theoretical place and infrastructure are not explained in a qualified manner).
