    • Must feature an explicit research gap, robust methodological execution, and clear data interpretation.
    • Must demonstrate direct relevance and application to elementary school classrooms, young learners, or primary education policy.
  1. Review Article
    Review Articles provide comprehensive, critical, and rigorous synthesis of existing literature to evaluate contemporary trends, theoretical developments, or unresolved questions in elementary education.
  • Acceptable Approaches: Systematic Literature Reviews (SLR) and Meta-Analyses following established guidelines (such as PRISMA).
  • Core Requirements:
    • Must outline explicit search strategies, inclusion/exclusion criteria, quality appraisal, and data synthesis methods.
    • Must go beyond descriptive summaries by offering critical analytical insights, identifying literature gaps, and proposing clear agendas for future primary education research.
