A Message from Our President

It is with regret that we are notifying you that the International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education has decided to pause all operations and publications.

There was a pause in the review process in November 2022 and access to the journal website and all the submissions was transferred to ISETL in January 2023.

We currently have 2 issues of the journal in edit/format and ready for publication by March.

Late last year our journal staff quit/left/resigned. We were hoping to keep our promises to our authors. In fall 2022 there was a several months pause in the review process and in early 2023 the board got access to the journal website and all the submissions. After a full review of the number of manuscripts and the cost involved in publishing an open access journal, the ISETL board decided to pause the journal indefinitely. We do not have the financial ability or the expertise to continue the journal.

We are currently accepting proposals for our 2023 ISETL Conference, October 18 & 19 in New Orleans. Titled, “Horizon Technologies in Higher Education: Teaching and Learning in a Time of Change”, we hope to attract a robust agenda of presentations. As the conference funds the journal, and we had no conferences for the past three years, we are hopeful that we will be able to reconsider the journal in early 2024.

I can’t apologize enough from the organization, we understand the situation that was created and wholly apologize. We wish you the best with your manuscript.
