Revue des sciences de l’éducation
Managing editor(s): David Lefrançois / Editor(s): Marc-André Éthier
About
The Revue des sciences de l'éducation exists since 1974. It was founded by the Francophone Association of Deans, Directors of Departments and Faculties of Education. Its aim is to support and stimulate the dissemination of research in the different disciplines of education, in particular in didactics, pedagogy, school administration, and measurement and evaluation. It is also important to note that over the years different paradigms present in the sciences of education have influenced the plurality of published articles. The methodological rigour of published research is an important criterion in the peer review process. However, no methodology is favoured over another. Thus, both the research conducted with qualitative data and research conducted with quantitative data are published in the Revue des sciences de l'éducation. Published in French and digital format, three issues are published each year. Although produced in Canada, authors from different countries regularly publish articles. Consequently, the Revue des sciences de l'éducation is an internationally recognized journal. Currently, it is indexed in the Canadian Association of Scholarly Journals, Érudit, INIST, Persée and Repère.

Editorial policy and ethics
The Revue des sciences de l’éducation is committed to upholding and maintaining the integrity of published articles. To this end, the Revue adheres to a code of conduct and recognized ethical practices, of which the following points provide only a general and non-exhaustive overview. We therefore encourage our authors, reviewers, and editors to refer to and familiarize themselves with the website of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). If you have any doubts about an ethical issue related to the Revue, please contact its director or editor-in-chief by calling us, or sending us an email.
Focus and Scope
The Revue des sciences de l'éducation is devoted to the scholarly investigation of education sciences in Canada and internationally. Its aim is to support and stimulate the dissemination of research in the different disciplines of education, in particular in didactics, pedagogy, school administration, and measurement and evaluation.
The Revue des sciences de l’éducation is published in French and exclusively in digital format. Each published article is also presented with an abstract both in English and Spanish. Three issues are published each year.
The Revue is globally recognized and indexed in the records of the Canadian Association of Learned Journals, Érudit, INIST, Persée, and Repère.
About members of the Editorial Board
The management team enjoys complete editorial autonomy and assumes final responsibility for the intellectual content published by the Revue. The management is supported by three committees. The editorial committee is responsible for overseeing the editorial process of the Revue and includes a team of language reviewers. The administrative committee ensures the management of the journal. The members of the scientific committee are tasked with evaluating the review process of the articles submitted to the Revue, providing advice on its long-term editorial policies, and acting as reviewers for certain articles.
Accepted Submissions
The Revue des sciences de l'éducation encourages submissions from authors with diverse backgrounds and expertise on issues related to the field of education sciences. The methodological rigor of the published research is a major factor during the double-blind peer review process by external reviewers. However, no methodology is favored over another. Thus, both qualitative and quantitative research are published in the Revue. Periodically, the Revue produces thematic issues that encourage the submission of articles on a given topic. More generally, the Revue des sciences de l'éducation publishes:
- Articles presenting theoretical or empirical research results or critically examining theoretical questions;
- Documents grouping research notes, debates, critical essays, or discussions on educational issues;
- Critical reviews of recent and relevant books in the field of education.
Authors can submit empirical or theoretical research articles of up to 8,080 words to the Revue des sciences de l'éducation. The Revue also directly solicits authors to write book reviews. Only empirical or theoretical research articles are subject to a peer review process.
Peer review process
All papers must present research in the field of educational sciences. Once the article corresponds to the standards in terms of content and presentation, a double-blind review process by experts in the field is performed.
Any article proposal is evaluated by at least two specialists in the field who are not affiliated with the author's institution. The selected experts must decide whether the article is publishable based on specific criteria. An evaluation grid is provided to guide their assessment work. The results of the review are communicated to the author, and if necessary, corrections are requested. The Editor-in-Chief accepts or rejects the article proposal; they may also request revisions.
Copyright Policy
Each author assigns her/his copyright to the journal, but may archive the manuscript on an institutional repository. Any manuscript is submitted exclusively to the Revue and must not have been previously published. An article that has been published in another language may serve as a basis for a manuscript submitted to the Revue, provided that permission is obtained from the publisher of the original article and this is clearly stated.

All articles submitted must be uploaded to the "Open Journal Systems" platform provided by the University of Montreal libraries at https://rse.ojs.umontreal.ca.

Digital Preservation Policy
The perennial archiving of the Revue des sciences de l'éducation is assured by Portico.
Anti-plagiarism Policy
The Review refuses plagiarism. Articles whose authors do not systematically cite their references correctly are rejected; authors who occasionally quote them incorrectly must correct this aspect of their manuscripts before they can be accepted for publication. Authors are called upon to manipulate self-citation with caution and parsimony, as the manuscripts received must be distinct and original.
Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools in research and writing is emerging and, as such, is constantly evolving and being reassessed. AI-based tools and technologies include, but are not limited to, large language models (LLMs), generative AI, and chatbots (such as ChatGPT). Authors are responsible for the originality, validity, and integrity of their submissions. When using AI tools, they must do so responsibly and in accordance with our editorial policies and publishing ethics principles. Authors must also acknowledge all sources and contributors to their work, including the use of AI tools, and document this use appropriately.
Complaints and Appeals Handling
The Revue des sciences de l'éducation ensures an equitable and transparent process for handling complaints and appeals. Concerns can be addressed directly to the Editor-in-Chief. Complaints will be examined confidentially and fairly, in accordance with our editorial ethics principles.
If there is disagreement with an editorial decision or any aspect of the publication, authors and other involved parties have the right to appeal. Appeals should be addressed to the Editor-in-Chief within a reasonable timeframe after receiving the initial decision notification. The Editor-in-Chief will review the appeal, considering all relevant factors, to reach a satisfactory resolution.

In the case of thematic issues, guest editors provide indications regarding the chosen problematic to authors invited to submit articles.
