About the Journal

The (Ianna Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies ISSN: 2735-9891) half yearly publishes original research in English. As a comparative education journal, owned by the Department of Mass Communication, University of Nigeria.  We are especially interested in work that is either explicitly or implicitly comparative. Explicitly comparative research includes cross-national studies or studies that compare educational phenomena in a range of countries. Implicitly comparative research typically means single nation case studies that contribute to a larger comparative framework about the topic. Such studies must show how the particular case is theoretically relevant for readers outside the given country.

The (Ianna Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies ISSN: 2735-9891) seeks articles that will have a wide relevance to the comparative and international education community. Articles about very specific educational practices or curriculum areas are better suited in specialist journals. We also do not typically publish articles about foreign language teaching.

The majority of articles in The (Ianna Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies ISSN: 2735-9891)  original research. The research may use primary data, or may involve secondary analyses from available data sets, policy documents or reports. We occasionally publish literature reviews, if the topic is considered by the editorial team as particularly relevant.
