Good morning Sir.

May I introduce myself because this is the first time I write e-mail to you. I am Carolus Patampang. I am Indonesian and right now I am studying in Saint Louis University Baguio City, Philippines. I am taking my graduate study in PhD in educational management. The first time I encountered your blog was during my research class. Our professor Dr. Gaston Kibiten encouraged us to open your blog so that we will know the list of the fakes journal. Right now I am writing my final paper. Although I have been checking your blog, my I ask again a question in regards to two journals: the Australian Journal of Teacher Education (I have plan to send my paper to be published there) and also The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology (I encounter a research that related to my study). Do you have any comments about this two journal. As well could you recommend any journals in the area of educational management or policy in Australia and Asia which I might send my paper?

Thank you very much in advance for your response and help

Sincerely

Carolus Patampang

“Research Technology Management” is a new addition to the list, isn’t it? Hilariously, the “Meet Our People” section and half the Archived Articles links are still filled with Lorem Ipsum:
Vestibulum neque magna, imperdiet at ipsum eu, auctor tristique massa. Donec convallis diam nec…

Didn’t you used to have Mitteilungen Klosterneuburg on the list?

Hi, Carolus, I think both of those journals are fine. Neither is on my list. I’m sorry — I cannot make journal recommendations outside my own field. I focus on finding the questionable publishers. I recommend asking your librarian for help in identifying good journals in your field. Good luck.

‘The scientific society pays less’ not if the number of papers explodes, which is the case. ‘Society’ pays for 10 incremental/redundant OA papers at 1500$ a piece instead of 1 in depth study. This only to help academics to get tenure in universities that stopped bothering about quality and just ask for volume, or well-paid government jobs.

‘Note that publishing a paper in non-OA costs well over 5000$’
This is a wild exaggeration, it has been calculated by the Harvard library that it’s on the order of 3000$, about the cost of 2 pay-for-publish ‘open access’ papers.

‘all publishers must switch to OA model’
I don’t see why they ‘must’, but most of them already have because of the high demand of authors that are desperate to publish their stuff.

Mold illness is related to Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis, which is an orphan disease which has had few funded studies and is understood to be a “complex syndrome of varying intensity, clinical presentation, and natural history [medscape].”
Until there is a significant initiative by NIH to understand IgG mediated environmental illnesses, advances in the field will rely on small research groups and clinical practitioners treating patients with those illnesses.
Dr Campbell has co-authored several papers in leading peer-reviewed journals on clinical effects of mold and mycotoxins, linking the effects to IgG mediated immunological pathways, with studies of associated biomarkers,and extensive citations to prior clinical research and experiments with lab animals. The Texas Medical Board did not consider this peer-reviewed research when evaluating the charges against Dr. Campbell.
It is ironic that the Board forced Dr. Campbell to surrender his license just before Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast.

P Canning

I think scientific community must represent their concern about so called predatory journals whether they are OA or not and help people in Scopus and ISI get rid of them. This way we have better chance to select good quality journals no matter they are OA or not. These days, it is easy to find predatory journals from OA and not OA whether they are published by a well known publisher or by a newly greedy guy.
