Education and Arts Review (EAR) is an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing research and scholarship at the intersection of education, the arts, creativity, culture, and society. The journal provides a platform for researchers, educators, artists, practitioners, and scholars from diverse disciplines to exchange ideas, develop new perspectives, and contribute to contemporary debates in education and the arts.
The journal recognizes that education and the arts are closely connected in shaping human knowledge, creativity, identity, and social development. It therefore welcomes research that examines educational processes through artistic and cultural perspectives, as well as studies that explore the role of education in the development, preservation, interpretation, and innovation of artistic and cultural practices.
Education and Arts Review publishes original research articles, theoretical and conceptual papers, systematic and critical reviews, methodological contributions, and other scholarly works that make a clear contribution to the understanding of education and the arts. We particularly encourage interdisciplinary research that brings together perspectives from education, art and design, music, literature, performing arts, cultural studies, psychology, sociology, philosophy, communication, and related fields.

Our Vision
The vision of Education and Arts Review is to become a respected international forum for scholarship that bridges disciplinary boundaries and promotes meaningful dialogue between education and the arts.
We believe that education is not only a process of acquiring knowledge, while the arts are not merely forms of aesthetic expression. Both are fundamental to creativity, critical thinking, cultural understanding, human development, and social transformation. By bringing these fields together, the journal seeks to encourage innovative scholarship and contribute to a deeper understanding of how education and artistic practices can enrich one another.
Our Mission
The mission of Education and Arts Review is to:
- Promote rigorous and innovative research in education and the arts.
- Encourage interdisciplinary dialogue among scholars and practitioners.
- Provide an international platform for emerging and established researchers.
- Advance understanding of creativity, culture, learning, and human development.
- Connect academic research with educational and artistic practice.
- Support the development of new ideas and approaches across education and the arts.
Education and Arts Review is committed to academic rigor, intellectual diversity, research integrity, and constructive scholarly dialogue. We welcome contributions from researchers and practitioners worldwide and seek to build an inclusive academic community in which different disciplinary, cultural, methodological, and theoretical perspectives can contribute to the advancement of knowledge.
