Table of Contents (Scientific Quality)

1. Overview & Vision

• Short framing statement: “What Scientific Quality means for iLRN”

• Reflection space for Dennis & Jule to articulate their vision

• Link to Knowledge Tree foundations (roots → trunk → branches as scholarly fields)

2. Peer Review Frameworks

• Current Conference Peer Review Process (criteria, reviewer guidelines)

• Rubrics in Development (A&E, Branch-specific adaptations)

• Future Considerations (double-blind review, open review, AI-assisted review)

3. Publication Standards

• SCOPUS Indexing Path (steps toward inclusion; key milestones)

• CORE Rankings Effort (how iLRN proceedings and journal outputs are positioned)

• Transparency & Reproducibility (open data, preregistration, code sharing)

4. Hallmarks of Scholarly Quality in Immersive Learning

• Methodological Rigor (learning sciences, HCI, design-based research, ethnographic studies)

• Game Design & User Experience (as professional/scholarly hallmarks of quality unique to iLRN’s identity)

• Learning Engagement & Outcomes (as key to successful immersive learning)

• Interdisciplinary Breadth (criteria for cross-field work that strengthens quality)

5. Living Rubrics & Measures

• Draft space for Dennis & Jule to upload/checklist evolving rubrics

• Links to Circle of Scholars discussions

• Placeholder for community feedback and version tracking

6. Partnership Alignment

• IEEE Technical Committee on Immersive Learning Environments (emerging standards, joint efforts)

• IBSTPI Competency Framework (instructional design crosswalks)

• How iLRN quality measures align with broader scholarly/professional organizations

7. Next Steps & Contributions

• Call for Dennis & Jule to add iLRN Scientific Quality work to date

• Placeholder: “First Positioning Statement Draft” (short essay ~500 words)

• Notes section for “Future Directions” (community input, open for volunteers)
