The Journal of Elementary Mathematics Education (JEME) publishes original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, design studies, and classroom-based research (e.g., lesson study, action research). Topics include but are not limited to:

1. Numeracy and foundational mathematics: early number sense, arithmetic, fractions, measurement, geometry, data literacy, and mathematical reasoning in primary grades.

2. Instructional strategies and learning environments: problem-based learning, inquiry-based learning, cooperative learning, gamification, and technology-enhanced instruction.

3. Curriculum design and development: mathematics curriculum standards, textbook analysis, integration of mathematics with other subjects (STEM, Islamic values, local culture).

4. Assessment in elementary mathematics: formative assessment, diagnostic tools, authentic assessment, and addressing learning difficulties (dyscalculia, math anxiety).

5. Teacher education and professional development: pre-service and in-service training, pedagogical content knowledge, beliefs, and classroom practices.

6. Cognitive and affective aspects: mathematical thinking, problem-solving heuristics, metacognition, motivation, attitudes, and math anxiety.

7. Ethnomathematics and culturally responsive teaching: integrating local wisdom, Islamic values, or indigenous knowledge into mathematics lessons.

8. Technology and digital tools: educational apps, virtual manipulatives, adaptive learning platforms, coding, and computational thinking.

9. Equity, diversity, and inclusion: gender differences, socio-economic disparities, special educational needs, and multilingual learners.
