About JDE

The Journal of Developmental Education (JDE) is a semi-annual peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the generation and sharing of knowledge and ideas related to the postsecondary developmental education community.

A list of related topics can be found athttps://journals.library.appstate.edu/index.php/jde/about.

Manuscripts

JDE publishes manuscripts in the form of research articles, research briefs, and practice briefs. Editorial priority is placed on manuscripts that relate the practical significance of theory and/or research to teaching, learning, student experiences, student development, and making connections between research, practice, and implications. Research Articles should include an Introduction, Statement of Purpose, Literature Review, Theoretical/Conceptual Framework, Methodology, Findings/Results, Discussion and Conclusion, and Implications for Practice. Research Briefs should include the same components but focus more heavily on Methodology, Findings/Results, Discussion and Conclusion, and Implications for Practice. Practice Briefs provide readers with insight into the current and emerging practices implemented and/or experienced by practitioners. Submissions for practice briefs should include an Introduction, Overview of the Practice, Discussion of  Practice-Related Specific Interventions or Strategies, and Implications for the Field of Practice.
