Educational & Instructional Leadership

Browsing within core journals for a field of study is a good way to keep current with emerging research and knowledge. However, if you need to locate articles about a specific topic we suggest you search within the databases recommended for instructional leadership.

Scholarly Journals

• Contain articles written by and addressed to experts in a discipline.
• Report original research or experimentation.
• Cite their sources in footnotes or bibliographies.

Peer-reviewed (or refereed) journals

• Only publish articles that have passed through a review process, and have been approved by scholars or experts.
• Many databases provided the option to limit your search results to peer-reviewed titles
