All you want to know about the publication of full papers
The European Journal of University Lifelong Learning (EJULL)’s diverse readership includes researchers, practitioners and policymakers and we invite submissions that seek to engage specifically with one or more of those groups of readers.
We are happy to accept three kinds of papers:
- Research papers drawing on theoretical debates or empirical research, contextualized within current national and international policy debate, which develop the theoretical base of the field or report on significant research done;
Length: max. 3000-5000 words - Innovative Practice/Short papers including critical evaluations to share and discuss specific projects or practical approaches that either are in progress or have been completed;
Length: max. 2000-3000 words - Discussion papers presenting informed opinion and reflection on current research and policy developments on university lifelong learning.
Length: max. 1000-2000 words
All research papers undergo a double-blind review. Innovative practice/short papers and discussion papers are reviewed by one of the editorial board members.
In case there are not enough accepted manuscripts to publish a journals, the papers will be kept by eucen and added to the next possible edition of the EJULL journal.
We look forward to receiving your manuscripts!
