STEM Education Review: A new journal is launched

STEM Education Review, short as STEMER, has been launched in February 2023.

STEMER is an online open-access journal. It focuses on the study of learning and teaching in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). It involves contributions of different perspectives that view STEM education either as traditionally defined subject-based education or as an educational undertaking in inter-connected STEM fields.

The journal seeks to provide an open innovative international forum for peer-reviewed empirically, historically, and theoretically based articles and scholarly reviews and essays on experiences and achievements in management, practice, scientific research, education, and training in the field of STEM education. And it is positioned to stimulate research and encourage academic exchange to promote the development of STEM education around the world.

Professor Dingming Wang from Beijing Institute of Technology is the Editor-in-Chief of the journal. The Editorial Board consists of outstanding professionals dedicated to the related field from all over the world.

The first publication includes an Inaugural Editorial and an Editorial from the Editor-in-Chief.

The topic of the Inaugural Editorial is “A forum to promote STEM education worldwide". In which, Dingming Wang summarizes the importance, current situation and prospects of STEM Education and introduces the development goals and publishing scopes of the journal.
