Welcome to the penultimate episode of this special season of the SEFI podcast which marks the 50th anniversary of SEFI and in which we discuss changes to engineering education and engineering education research (EER) occurring in Europe over the last few decades. In this episode we talk to Kristina Edström who has been Editor-in-Chief of the European Journal of Engineering Education (EJEE) since 2018. Kristina has played a pivotal role in creating change within EER in Europe, enhancing the EJEE’s scholarly value and practical relevance. Her efforts in fostering a diverse network of reviewers and authors from various backgrounds have strengthened the journal’s position. We talk to Kristina about the purpose and audience of EER, fostering an inclusive community, and how we ensure the usefulness and scholarliness of our work.show notes: https://www.sefi.be/2024/01/25/podcast-season-3-episode-5-european-engineering-educators-is-online/ Join Dr. Natalie Wint (University College London) and Dr. Neil Cooke (University of Birmingham) to learn about publishing within EJEE.Timestamps0.00 Welcome and introduction to episode0.47 Podcast Intro1.01 Experiences of publishing and EJEE from Natalie and Neil2.38 Kristina's Background9.22 KTH and EER at KTH12.14 Start of the journal and links to SEFI13.09 Comparison to JEE and the USA: EER as a 'rigorous discipline'15:35 Changes on the European side17.03 Tensions in what EJEE should be18.45 Kristina's aims and ambitions as a new Editor-in-Chief20.50 Bottlenecks and reviewers24.09 The functions of peer review and guidance to reviewers30.10 Aims and scope of the journal: usefulness and scholarliness35.03 SEFI Journal of Engineering Education Advancement38.29 Trends is authorship and topics44.16 Trends in methods and working with other disciplines48.30 Practical advice regarding planning and submission of research52:33 Two elephants in the room59.23 The EER publishing landscape1.02.50 The future of EJEE1.07.46 Final advice from Kristina1.09.49 Key takeaways from Natalie and Neil.Resourceshttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03043797.2018.1433112 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03043797.2018.1501840 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/03043797.2017.1401596 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9962543 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9962423https://www.researchgate.net/publication/371816010_Reviewing_manuscripts_in_engineering_education_research_journals_fairly_constructively_effectivelyJoin us!
