Abstract :
The editors are pleased to announce that Thomson Reuters (ISI) has completed the evaluation of our journal and has accepted it for inclusion in the Web of Science (WoS), covered under Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), Current Content Computer Science & Engineering, and Current Content/Social and Behavioral Sciences. The 2011 data will be released by Thomson Reuters in June 2012, so IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies (TLT) will begin to appear in the reports at that time. Because the journal was accepted within its first few years of publication, ISI will back-index all articles from all previous publication years. The second important news is the extension of our Editorial Board. We are excited to welcome several new Board members who represent several critical areas in the field of Learning Technologies. They are introduced and a biography included for each. The editors also introduce a Special Section on Semantic Technologies for Learning and Teaching Support in Higher Education. The guest editors of this special section, Thanassis Tiropanis, David Millard, and Hugh C. Davis provided a separate introduction to this special section that follows this editorial. In addition, this issue features three regular papers.
