The Journal of Interdisciplinary Learning and Knowledge Sciences (JILKS) is International Journal Press's title for scholarship at the intersection of learning and knowledge. It publishes original, peer-reviewed research on interdisciplinary learning, knowledge systems and representation, assessment and cognition, and educational technology and pedagogy, welcoming empirical, theoretical, and design-based work that examines how people learn and how knowledge is organised, modelled, and shared. Submissions are judged on the soundness of their methods and the clarity of their reporting, not on perceived novelty or field. All articles are open access under CC BY 4.0 and undergo double-anonymous peer review.
