Who is reading on-line education journals? Why? And what are they reading? - Lawrence M. Rudner, Marie Miller-Whitehead, Jennifer S. Gellmann
One thoughtful examination of the literature estimates that a typical article published in a scientific journal in the U.S. is read about 900 times [Tenopir, 2000]. In contrast, some of the electronic journals in education appear to be having a far greater impact. It is not uncommon for an article in Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA) to be read more than 10,000 times; several articles have been viewed more than 30,000 times. The 100 articles in Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation (PARE), a more specialized electronic journal, had averaged more than 7,000 views per article as of February 2002. In September 2002, PARE readership reached the one million mark.
