Abstracting/Indexing Services and Journal Lists

IJTCS aims at becoming an authoritative source in teaching and learning within management, computing and information technology in a broad sense, which is of interest to educators, researchers, policy-makers and practitioners alike. The unique value proposition of IJTCS is the linkage of computing and information technology to management and business. Towards this aim, IJTCS delivers excellent articles on new methods, models and practices of teaching in the era of knowledge society, as well as (teaching) cases aimed at supporting learning in academia and business settings.

IJTCS covers the disciplines of management, management science, computer engineering, computer science, information systems, information technology and software engineering. It also considers any interdisciplinary account of information technology from a management perspective, such as, for example, medical informatics education or teaching technological issues for library science. Papers related to curricula, knowledge bodies, certification and professional issues in management and computing are also welcomed, as they reflect an additional stage of the education process as part of life-long learning.

 Go Top  Objectives

IJTCS aims at publishing high quality research papers, reflective studies, case studies and “lessons learned" notes on any aspect of teaching and learning in computing and information technology-related disciplines.

The ACM/AIS/IEEE-CS Joint Task Force on Computing Curricula has recognised the wide variety of disciplines related to computing in its 2005 Overview Volume (Draft dated September 30, 2005). The different programs represent a number of computing disciplines. In this journal, we focus on five that are prominent today: computer engineering, computer science, information systems, information technology, and software engineering. Each of these areas is a focus of interest for IJCTS, and such diversity is reflected in the structure of Associate Editors specialising in different areas.

Papers may present work of different kinds, from classroom-based empirical studies through comparisons of pedagogic approaches across institutions or countries and of different types from the practical to the theoretical. Case studies that provide insight on proven strategies or teaching patterns are also welcomed. In addition, papers related to curriculum, knowledge bodies, certification and professional issues are also welcomed, as they reflect an additional stage of the education process as part of life-long learning.

This general statement outlines the ultimate objective but towards this direction a number of other goals and objectives may be stressed:

  • Advancing a clear demarcation of the different disciplines that can be named as “computing and information technology", building on relevant recommendations and proposed curricula
  • Serving as a catalogue for educators at all levels who are seeking learning resources, methods or past experiences.
  • Advancing legal and certification issues as related to life-long learning and training in any aspect of computing
  • Discussing the composition and structure of the different “bodies of knowledge" that conform to the computing and information technology disciplines
