TANJAK (Journal of Education and Teaching) takes its name from the traditional Malay headgear known as tanjak, a cultural symbol associated with dignity, strength, wisdom, determination, and aspiration. In Malay cultural heritage, the upward-pointing form of the tanjak reflects a spirit of continuous growth, excellence, and the pursuit of higher ideals.

Inspired by these values, TANJAK serves as an academic platform for advancing knowledge, research, and innovation in education and teaching. The philosophy of the tanjak reflects the journal’s commitment to promoting educational excellence, strengthening professional practice, fostering intellectual and ethical development, and contributing to the advancement of a knowledgeable, ethical, and civilized society through rigorous scholarly publication.

TANJAK publishes original research articles, theoretical and conceptual studies, empirical research, development and design-based research, systematic and literature reviews, and other scholarly contributions that advance understanding and practice in education and teaching. The journal promotes interdisciplinary and evidence-based scholarship addressing contemporary educational challenges across diverse cultural, social, institutional, and international contexts.

As an international-oriented academic journal, TANJAK welcomes contributions from researchers, scholars, educators, teachers, policymakers, and educational practitioners worldwide. The journal encourages scholarly exchange across local, national, regional, and international contexts, with particular appreciation for research that offers meaningful theoretical, methodological, and practical contributions to the advancement of education and teaching.

TANJAK is published twice a year, in February and August, and is committed to maintaining rigorous peer review, publication integrity, ethical standards, transparency, and continuous improvement in scholarly publishing. Through these commitments, TANJAK seeks to strengthen its contribution to the advancement of educational scholarship and practice and to expand its international academic visibility and impact.
