The author has surveyed educational technologists who gained tenure between 1999 and 2004 to determine where they published. The idea was to see if there was an ‘A’ list of journals where ed techies can publish their articles as a way to give a leg-up to those seeking a career in ed tech. You may be relieved (or possibly disappointed) to hear that apparently there isn’t a premier league of top journals to aim for. The majority of those who were surveyed cast their peer reviewed publications far and wide in the literature, possibly reflecting the diverse nature of the subject. [David Davies' Weblog]
