Where do folks publish new educational measures these days?
I've been designing instruments to make it possible to quickly assess motivation and knowledge in classrooms, but now discover that it is nearly impossible to find a (Q1) journal in education that will review them.
Any leads?

Hi bsky! I'm excited to join this growing space and having conversations about how we can use digital tools to improve learners' ability to self-regulated their learning. Here's a new demo of how we study and teach students about the Science of Learning to Learn! link.springer.com/article/10.1...
