Gerasi in Mathematics Education (GIME) is a peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal that publishes original and high-quality research in mathematics education. The journal accepts manuscripts that provide significant theoretical, empirical, methodological, or practical contributions to the field of mathematics education.
GIME welcomes submissions from researchers, lecturers, teachers, educators, students, and practitioners from Indonesia and other countries.
Manuscripts may be submitted in English or Indonesian. However, authors are strongly encouraged to submit manuscripts in English to increase international visibility and accessibility.
All manuscripts must be submitted through the journal's online submission system. Manuscripts submitted by email or other channels will not normally be considered.
GIME accepts the following types of manuscripts:
Original research articles should present new empirical findings based on rigorous quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods research.
Systematic reviews should use a clearly defined review methodology, comprehensive search strategy, explicit inclusion and exclusion criteria, systematic analysis, and transparent reporting of the review process.
Scoping reviews should systematically map existing literature, identify research trends, gaps, concepts, and emerging areas within mathematics education.
Conceptual articles should provide substantial theoretical arguments, critical synthesis, conceptual frameworks, or new perspectives relevant to mathematics education.
Methodological studies may address the development, validation, adaptation, or application of research methods, instruments, assessment tools, or analytical approaches in mathematics education.
Articles in this category should present innovative mathematics education practices, learning designs, instructional models, learning media, or educational interventions supported by appropriate evidence.
Submitted manuscripts must be original and must not have been previously published in any journal, book, conference proceeding, or other publication in substantially similar form.
A manuscript submitted to GIME must not be simultaneously under consideration by another journal.
