Focus and Scope

International Transactions on Education Technology (ITEE) is dedicated to pioneering research and development at the intersection of education technology and the learning factory concept. Our focus includes:

  1. AI-Driven Learning Factory: We explore how artificial intelligence can enhance adaptive learning environments within a learning factory, focusing on educational data analytics and intelligent tutoring systems to combine theory with practical industrial applications.
  2. Data Science in the Learning Factory Context: This area involves applying data science to analyze and enhance learning outcomes within a learning factory setting, promoting research that is both academically rigorous and practically applicable to real-world educational scenarios.
  3. Enhanced Learning Technologies in Learning Factories: We investigate how technologies like VR, AR, and wearable devices can be utilized in learning factories to enrich the educational experience, aligning with sustainable development goals and providing hands-on, outcome-driven learning opportunities.
  4. Educational Information Systems for Learning Factory Management: This includes the software development of information systems and e-learning platform designed for the operational management of learning factories, ensuring resource management that educational processes are both efficient and effective, integrating educational principles with industrial outcomes
  5. Interdisciplinary Learning Factory Projects: Encouraging research that spans across various disciplines within the learning factory framework, fostering collaborations that lead to innovative educational solutions and practices.

Our journal aims to be a pivotal platform for intellectual and research exchange, encouraging submissions that not only advance knowledge but also support the sustainable development of global education systems (SDG4) by integrating technology with the practical, industrial context of learning factories.
