In this article, we review the publications served by theCanadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Educationin the past 15 years, specific to the field of mathematics education, and make connections with development of the field. In particular, we adopt current Editor-in-Chief John Wallace's (2009) approach of “looking back, looking forward,” to reflect on the journal's development both qualitatively, by recapping significant moments of the journal and highlighting recurrent themes, and quantitatively, by reviewing the number of contributions in terms of country, language, and genre. In looking forward, we inform a discussion of future directions of the journal. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

When we launched the call for papers for this special issue in November 2018, we could hardly imagine what state the World would be in, just two years later, when writing this editorial for the completed work in November 2020. Their methodologies and findings may also encourage further research in a variety of challenging issues for the global financial markets associated with not only a post-Covid but also a post-Brexit environment. A clear focus of the special issue can be found in the application of machine learning techniques that are recurrent topics in the special issue's articles. [Extracted from the article]

The article offers information on the various aspects of the periodical "Drugs in R & D" which includes reviewers, published articles and editorial boards.

Background: Researches from the developing world contribute only a limited proportion to the total research output published in leading orthopedics journals. Some of them believe that there is substantial editorial bias against their work. We assessed the composition of the editorial boards of leading orthopedic journals. Methods: The editorial boards of 18 leading orthopedic journals according to their impact factor were retrieved from their website. We evaluated in which countries the editorial board members were based and classified these countries using the World Bank income criteria. Results: Individuals from number of countries can be found on the editorial boards of the investigated journals, but most of them are based in high-income countries. While 1,302 of the 1,401 editorial board members are based in countries with a high income according to the World Bank criteria, 37 are based in an upper middle income, 2 in lower middle income and none in a low-income economy. Conclusion: The percentage of editorial board members in leading orthopedic journals is dominated by high-income countries with serious underrepresentation from low-income countries.

The advent of online publishing greatly facilitates the dissemination of scientific results. This revolution might have led to the untimely death of many traditional publishing companies, since today's scientists are perfectly capable of writing, formatting and uploading files to appropriate websites that can be consulted by colleagues and the general public alike. They also have the intellectual resources to criticize each other and organize an anonymous peer review system. The Open Access approach appears promising in this respect, but we cannot ignore that it is fraught with editorial and economic problems. A few powerful publishing companies not only managed to survive, but also rake up considerable profits. Moreover, they succeeded in becoming influential 'trendsetters' since they decide which papers deserve to be published. To make money, one must set novel trends, like Christian Dior or Levi's in fashion, and open new markets, for example in Asia. In doing so, the publishers tend to supplant both national and transnational funding agencies in defining science policy. In many cases, these agencies tend simply to adopt the commercial criteria defined by the journals, forever eager to improve their impact factors. It is not obvious that the publishers of scientific journals, the editorial boards that they appoint, or the people who sift through the vast numbers of papers submitted to a handful of 'top' journals are endowed with sufficient insight to set the trends of future science. It seems even less obvious that funding agencies should blindly follow the fashion trends set by the publishers. The perverse relationships between private publishers and public funding agencies may have a toxic effect on science policy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Print academic journals are dead. As we watch large metropolitan newspapers fail (as are many small town newspapers), the same economic forces are driving online scholarly publishing. This phenomenon is more than print journals going online. The options available with new low-cost online publishing software and the rise in the ability to use ratings from user generated content suggest more near-term changes are likely. Many of the outcomes are unsettled: the economics of online publishing; the standards for peer review, rank, and tenure; and the very nature of scholarly publishing itself. What is certain, however, is that the economics of online academic publishing—modeled via Anderson’s Long Tail Theory—will make it possible to provide greater access, more collaboration, and, ultimately, improved research and researchers. Universities acting as publishing centers with their e-reserves will be expected to change their faculty evaluations, providing greater academic rewards for those who act as editors, reviewers, and proofreaders within this new born-online and only-online world.
