The Information Systems Education Journal (ISEDJ) (ISSN: 1545-679X)

Description

The Information Systems Education Journal (ISEDJ) is a double-blind peer-reviewed academic journal published by EDSIG, the Education Special Interest Group of AITP, the Association of Information Technology Professionals (Chicago, Illinois). Publishing frequency is irregular: as each article is approved, it is published immediately and constitutes a complete separate issue of the current volume. Each volume covers one calendar year. The first year of publication is 2003.
ISEDJ is published online in connection with ISECON, the Information Systems Education Conference, which is also double-blind peer reviewed. Our sister publication, the Proceedings of ISECON (CDROM, ISSN: 1542-7382) features all papers, panels, workshops, and presentations from the conference, together with ancillary materials such as PowerPoint slides.

The journal acceptance review process involves a minimum of three double-blind peer reviews, where the both the reviewer is not aware of the identities of the authors and the authors are not aware of the identities of the reviewers. The initial reviews happen before the conference. At that point papers are divided into award papers (top 15%), other journal papers, unsettled papers, and non-journal papers. The unsettled papers are subjected to a second round of blind peer review to establish whether they will be accepted to the journal or not. Those papers that are deemed of sufficient quality are accepted for publication in the ISEDJ journal. Currently the overall acceptance rate to the journal is about 60%.

Information Systems Education Journal is pleased to be listed in the 1st Edition of Cabell's Directory of Publishing Opportunities in Educational Technology and Library Science, in both the electronic and printed editions.
