We are pleased to present two announcements and offer our best wishes from
your colleagues at the International Review of Research in Open and Distance
Learning (IRRODL).
First, please follow the links below to articles from one of our largest and
most eclectic issues to date. Issue 12(5) has 9 research articles, 1
research note, and a book review. You will also note the addition for the
first time of author images.
Second, I am pleased to announce that effective January 2010 all research
articles in IRRODL are indexed by Thompson’s Social Science Citation Index.
With the addition of the prestigious SSCI index, IRRODL is now indexed and
searchable in 12 research or professional practice indices.
Finally, as always we extend our thanks to our authors and reviewers, our
editors, and our loyal readers. For those in the Northern Hemisphere, we
wish to you a relaxing summer holiday.
