PEER REVIEW PROCESS

Step 1: Initial Screening

The editor or editorial assistant will check a received manuscript to determine whether it conforms to the journal’s scope. Manuscripts out of the journal’s scope will be rejected. Articles published fully or partly in other publications/websites will not be reviewed or accepted.

Step 1: Initial Screening

Step 2: Plagiarism Check

All submitted manuscripts will be checked for plagiarism. Manuscripts containing plagiarism, including self-plagiarism, and dishonesty will be rejected.

Step 3: Peer Review

International Journal of Practices in Teaching and Learning (IJPTL) uses a rigorous double-blind system for peer-review. Both reviewers’ and authors’ identities remain anonymous. The submitted paper will be peer-reviewed by at least two experts in the fields relevant to the paper content.

Step 3: Peer Review

Step 4: Acceptance/Rejection Decision

The decision to accept an article is based on the average score given by reviewers. The author(s) may be asked to revise the manuscript based on the reviewers’ comments or suggestions and resubmit to the journal for another round of consideration. Manuscripts not following the journal author and submission guidelines, as well as the reviewers’ comments without any acceptable justification, may be rejected.
