Research articles are empirically-based or conceptual papers.
Empirical papers report on any type of research undertaken by the author(s) including the testing of a model, framework or data, market research or surveys.
Conceptual papers focus on developing hypotheses and are usually discursive.
Review articles survey and summarize previously published studies, rather than reporting new facts or analysis. They annotate and/or critique the literature in a particular field and must make a contribution to the understanding of theory or methodology on a topic beyond what is already known.
Research notes are concise reports and cutting-edge papers on a research theme, topic or development in theory or method.
Viewpoints are author’s opinion and interpretation on a topic relevant for research and practice. They are magazine-style contributions.
Teaching and learning case studies can be based on empirical research or real-world examples from industry. They aim to provide a high-quality teaching and learning resource.
Book reviews are a critical evaluation of a book, summarizing the content, analyzing the themes and techniques used by the author, and offering an opinion on the book's overall impact and quality.
