Learning and Teaching in Higher Education | Gulf Perspectives

Published twice a year since 2004, Learning and Teaching in Higher Education: Gulf Perspectives (LTHE) is a Scopus-indexed, refereed, cross-disciplinary journal for and by higher educators in the Gulf region.

LTHE presents research and discusses issues of relevance to university and college educators in the region; the journal also has a significant readership outside the region. The journal is aimed at people teaching in any discipline, as well as those who support learning in other ways. LTHE is indexed in Google Scholar, EBSCO and Clarivate (formerly Thomson Reuters) Emerging Sources Citation Index; it is currently under consideration for indexing in Scopus.

Topics of recent and upcoming papers published in LTHE include flipped learning; cultural bias in exams; mathematics teaching for social justice; and subject matter anxiety in students.
