Reception

In 2012, a survey of researchers in the field ranked the journal with an A (the second highest ranking, below A*).{{Cite journal |last1=Törner |first1=G. |last2=Azarello |first2= F. |title=Grading mathematics education research journals. |journal=Newsletter of the European Mathematical Society |date=December 2012 |pages=52–54 |url=https://www.ems-ph.org/journals/newsletter/pdf/2012-12-86.pdf#page=54}} In 2017, another ranking of journals placed it in the top tier.{{Cite journal |last1=Williams |first1=Steven R. |last2=Leatham |first2=Keith R. |date=2017 |title=Journal Quality in Mathematics Education |journal=Journal for Research in Mathematics Education |volume=48 |issue=4 |pages=369 |doi=10.5951/jresematheduc.48.4.0369}} At the same time, the high ranking in both of these reviews was questioned, suggesting that the journal more properly belongs in the mid-tier.{{Cite journal |last1=Nivens |first1=Ryan Andrew |last2=Otten |first2=Samuel |date=2017 |title=Assessing Journal Quality in Mathematics Education |journal=Journal for Research in Mathematics Education |volume=48 |issue=4 |pages=348 |doi=10.5951/jresematheduc.48.4.0348|url=https://dc.etsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1215&context=etsu-works |url-access=subscription }}
