Mentoring & Tutoring: Partnership in Learning is an international refereed journal that has quickly become the major resource to exchange information on mentoring and tutoring. The journal seeks to publish papers on all aspects of mentoring, tutoring and partnership in education, and other academic disciplines and professions. The journal is also beginning to play an important role in burgeoning 'distance learning' programmes.
The purpose of the journal is to help advance knowledge and understanding of mentoring, tutoring, and/or partnership in learning through a focus of high-quality research papers and development activities. The journal welcomes contributions from the widening field of mentoring and tutoring including papers of a philosophical, socio-political, or creative nature. Comparative aspects of mentoring, tutoring and partnership are of special interest as these techniques are increasingly used world-wide. The criteria for acceptance of papers are that they are analytical/emperical or critical, contribute to scholarship in the field, and are accessible to an international audience. Authors should also closely consider possible relevance to learning situations in other educational systems and cultures.
Mentoring & Tutoring: Partnership in Learning is currently noted in the following: Academic Search, Australian Education Index (AEI), National Data Base for Research into International Education (NDRI), British Education Index, Cabells Contents Pages in Education, EBSCOhost EFS, Educational Research Abstracts online (ERA), and PsychINFO.
