About the Georgia Educational Researcher
Dear GER Community:
We very much appreciate your support during our time as Editors of the Georgia Educational Researcher. We are proud to note that we were able to take the journal from approximately 10,000 downloads per year prior to becoming ERIC and Open Access Journal indexed to a high of over 15,500 during the peak COVID years. A typical year is now around 14,000 downloads. We are also proud to note how the international reach and scope of the journal has changed; we have readership in over 173 countries and regions. We are going back to acting reviewers and Editorial Board members, but we remain committed to growing the journal and actively participating in this vibrant community.
We look forward to seeing all of you at the annual conference,
Megan, Jihye, Sanjuana & Sheryl
Outgoing Editors, GER
