Aims & Scope
Digital Culture & Education (DCE) is an international
inter-disciplinary peer-reviewed
journal. This interactive, open-access web-published journal is for
those interested
in digital culture and education. The journal is devoted to analysing
the impact of
digital culture on identity, education, art, society, culture and
narrative within social,
political, economic, cultural and historical contexts.
Submission Guidelines
The scale and speed at which digital culture has entered all aspects
of our lives is
unprecedented. We publish articles and digital works that address the
use of digital
(and other) technologies and how they are taken up across diverse
institutional and
non-institutional contexts. Scholarly reviews of books, conferences,
exhibits, games,
software and hardware are also encouraged. The work we publish is both
disciplinary and interdisciplinary, bridging the social sciences and
humanities. We
are interested in work and scholarship theorising globalisation, development,
sustainability, wellbeing, subjectivities, networks, new media,
gaming, multimodality,
literacies and related issues. We encourage submissions in a variety
of modes and
invite guest editors to propose special editions.
