Stackable Micro Content

The Stackable Micro Content is a unique feature of this Journal and allows for multiple authoring pathways and a scaffolded editorial process. This is to allow authors to submit project developments in phases so that you can document and get constructive, peer-reviewed feedback which can help to shape your projects.

Each innovation project is to have 4 units of Stackable Micro Content where development of the project is documented progressively over each unit. Authors are to submit all 4 units of Stackable Micro Content progressively such that it is increasingly more evidence-based as the project progresses.

The Stackable Micro Content submissions of a single innovation project can be a combination of different multimedia formats such as slides, audios, podcasts, videos or animations. The stackable units must build upon one another to document the whole study/experiment scientifically.

There are base-level screening questions to determine the suitability of submissions for publication. Additional review questions are mapped to each stage of progression, and relevant sets of questions are used for each Stackable Micro Content unit.

The 4 Units of Stackable Micro Content

Content Unit 1

Provide the context and aims of your innovation project. Share your teaching experience and observations related to your project using descriptive language and storytelling techniques to engage readers. Reflect also on the potential significance and impact of your project.

Content Unit 2

Describe the progress of your project so far and provide details on underpinning theoretical frameworks and models, connecting them to relevant theories, concepts, or existing literature in the field. Demonstrate how your project relates to existing knowledge and share any challenges that had to be overcome in progressing the project.

Content Unit 3

Describe the progress of your project so far and provide details on user trials and experimentations conducted, including the study design and methods applied. Discuss the preliminary results, findings, and relate to the existing knowledge.

Content Unit 4

Discuss the final results, findings, and highlight new insights and implications. Summarise the main findings, novel insights and their significance in addressing the study problem. Discuss also the significance, implications, limitations, and future directions of the study. Describe how the results can be applied in day-to-day teaching and learning settings to improve cyber-physical learning.
