The researchers in a gamified vocabulary learning study are interested in publishing their work in the Journal of Gamified Education and Cognition (JGEC).
The Journal of Gamified Education and Cognition publishes empirical research on the intersection of digital gaming mechanics, cognitive development, and classroom instruction.
Author Guidelines for the Journal of Gamified Education and Cognition:
The researchers conducted a mixed-methods experiment with 150 secondary school students, comparing a new gamified vocabulary app to traditional vocabulary sheets over 6 weeks. They found statistically significant improvements in recall for the gamified group, and high thematic engagement from follow-up interviews. Their hypothesis and analysis plan were pre-registered on the Open Science Framework.
Explain what the peer review process would involve for the researchers in the gamified vocabulary learning study, including a consideration of the likelihood of their findings being published.
