About the Journal

Journal of Childhood, Education & Society (JCES) is an international double-blind peer-reviewed journal that accepts research and critical review articles in English and is published three times per year open-access.
 

JCES intends to provide a medium for sharing interdisciplinary research studies that focus on early childhood internationally, and the implications of this work for early childhood social and educational practices in collaboration with researchers, practitioners, and policymakers. In this way, this journal publishes both qualitative and quantitative research and critical review articles on early childhood from developmental, pedagogical, and sociological areas. Also, the research and review articles that link theory and practice, and produce informative resources for early childhood educators, practitioners, and policymakers are our current priority and are particularly welcome.

 
JCES emphasizes the importance of studying early childhood from an interdisciplinary perspective. Therefore, we are likely to accept papers on qualified interdisciplinary studies including but not limited to the following areas of interest:
1) child development across ages (birth through 8 years of age) and different contexts,
2) early childhood education, early childhood policymaking, early childhood curricula development,
3) early childhood special education,
4) best early childhood education classroom practices and professional development for early childhood educators and practitioners,
5) early childhood family studies, early childhood intervention programs, and
6) sociology of early childhood studies.  
 
The Editors and Editorial Board Members encourage submitting relevant, high-quality papers. We also occasionally consider thematic issues and commentaries for publication.
 
JCES is published by an early childhood researchers initiative in Türkiye which is led by Dr. Mehmet Toran and collaborated with worldwide early childhood researchers who are on the editorial board of the journal. On behalf of the initiative, Dr.Mehmet Toran assumes all official responsibilities for the journal.
 
JCES is an open-access, non-profit, and independent academic journal.
 
Publication Frequency: JCES publishes triennially a year from 2021 (February, July, and November).
