Educational Technology and Distance Education Journals

I had problems identifying quality, peer-reviewed journals in educational technology and distance education, so I compiled a list of the journals that meet the “peer-reviewed” criteria. These journals focus on the broad field of educational technology and distance education, and not all were created equally. I tried to avoid including any discipline specific journals. Please note that I purposefully only included specific educational psychology journals that have a flair for educational technology. If you have any journals I should add to my list, please contact me.
