Analytics operates at the intersection of educational measurement, massive data analysis, digital learning ecologies, and ethical philosophy. Intended to give voice to an emerging community, the journal is devoted to programs of research providing evidence of fair, reliable, and valid analytics. Dedicated to application, such multidisciplinary research will demonstrate its usefulness to educational stakeholders as they expand opportunities for diverse learners.
To advance this new area of research, we have provided detailed Author Guidelines for Advances in Statistical Computing and Graphical Techniques. Based on those guidelines, the categories below ask reviewers to make a series of analytic judgements on each section of the manuscript. After providing scores, reviewers are then asked to provide notes in which they justify and explain their assessment of the given section of the manuscript.
