About the Journal

A collective mouthpiece for pedagogical supervisors

Nordisk tidsskrift i veiledningspedagogikk [The Nordic Journal of Pedagogical Supervision] aims to develop pedagogical supervision competency across professions. We also wish to provide pedagogical supervisors with a collective mouthpiece for the purpose of promoting a sense of community and strengthening research activities in the field.

The intent of the journal is to strengthen the academic quality of the professional field through the publication of research and scientific articles. The Nordic Journal of Pedagogical Supervision shall have an independent and critical role.

The journal’s target audience includes researchers, educational institutions at all levels, practitioners, as well as others with an interest in supervision. NORDVEI will publish articles in Norwegian, Danish, Swedish and English.

There will be open access to all content of the journal. The journal will publish scientific articles following a peer review.

The journal has been approved as a level 1 journal by the Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals.

About the peer review process

This journal will be comprised of two main sections. The first is reserved for articles based on peer reviews. The second section will include shorter scientific texts, essays and narratives, best practice examples, and book reviews.

When the editors receive a submission, they will first determine whether the submission is relevant to the journal. Once this is confirmed, the submission will be forwarded for a peer review. The submission will then be assessed by two independent peers on the basis of originality, thoroughness, relevance, knowledge of relevant literature, analytic quality, and the ability to disseminate the knowledge. The author will be informed of the peer review results and any suggestions for changes. If possible, the author will receive feedback within two months after the submission was received by the editors.

Publication frequency

The journal will use a continuous publication model, where articles are published in a single volume each year.
