I recently compiled a list of open-access journals and thought I would share that list here. Please feel free to add additional journal recommendations and comments in reply to this post or point to other listings of journals related to learning, teaching, and instructional design practice and research!
The list I provided here is not intended to be exhaustive of all possible journals for reading and publishing opportunities in these areas. This was merely my humble attempt one afternoon to compile a list of journals and I hope you find it useful!
