Objectives

IJTCS aims at publishing high quality research papers, reflective studies, case studies and "lessons learned" notes on any aspect of teaching, learning and research across the disciplines as well as the role of the case study as a teaching and research methodology. Each of these areas is a focus of interest and such diversity is reflected in the structure of the editorial team and the Editorial Board, providing specialisms in different areas.

The journal's goal is to produce papers 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.

The objectives of IJTCS are to establish an effective channel of communication between policy makers, government agencies, academic and research institutions and persons concerned with today’s teaching and research issues in higher education and across local, regional and cross-national communities. The international dimension is emphasised in order to overcome cultural and national barriers and to meet the needs of accelerating technological and innovative social issues affecting the topics' activities taking place in the global economy.
