Focus and Scope of Temps d’Educació
Temps d'Educació is a scientific and academic journal that publishes works related to Pedagogy, Educational Sciences, and training in all fields and levels. Therefore, it will proportionally include - not necessarily in each issue, but overall - the different contents, scientific areas, and research lines of the aforementioned disciplines globally considered. As a university publication, it especially ensures the scientific rigor and intellectual level of the content.
The institutional nature of this publication, we believe, obliges it, if not to neutrality, then to pluralism. However, we understand that the journal must decisively opt for a renewing and critical pedagogical line. This, on the other hand, is not contradictory to the rigorous and scientific will it must have. Likewise, the editorial team does not always have to share the interpretations and orientations of the content of the works published. It will ensure they have sufficient intellectual quality, but without interfering in the interpretations or evaluations that each author introduces in their works.

Review process
The originals are evaluated by two external experts to the editorial team who are experts in the field of pedagogy, using a double-blind peer review system to ensure the anonymity of authors and reviewers. In the event of a disparity in criteria between the two reviewers, a third evaluation will be requested from a person external to the editorial team. Once the evaluation is completed, the author will receive a response from the journal's management, whether the article has been rejected or accepted, and indicating, if applicable, the necessary changes and improvement suggestions from the reports, as well as other editorial criteria of the journal that need to be adapted. The evaluation processing period will not exceed three months. If necessary, the author may resubmit the original, which will be re-evaluated. The Monograph, Studies and Research, and Reflections and Essays sections require external evaluation.
