Editorial: Volume 30 Issue 6

Abstract

In this editorial we discuss the challenges in identifying suitable literature to include in the literature review for an article describing an educational technology innovation involving leading edge technology. Authors new to publishing in the educational technology field have sometimes found this difficult because their searches for articles relating specifically to the particular innovation they are focussing on locate very few examples. We suggest some ways of thinking about what kinds of literature might be relevant and, consequently, some useful literature searching strategies.
