Peer-Review Process

The peer-review process is a cornerstone of the Journal of Study and Innovation in Education and Development (JSIED), ensuring the academic rigor and credibility of the research we publish. Our journal employs a double-blind anonymous peer-review process, in which the identities of both the authors and the reviewers are concealed.

Peer-Review Process Overview:

  1. Initial Submission and Screening: Upon submission, manuscripts undergo an initial screening by the editorial team to ensure they meet the journal’s scope, standards, and formatting guidelines.

  2. Plagiarism Check: Manuscripts are checked for originality using iThenticate software to detect any instances of plagiarism.

  3. Assignment of Reviewers: Each manuscript is assigned to two or three expert reviewers who possess relevant expertise in the manuscript’s subject area.

  4. Review Process: Reviewers independently evaluate the manuscript’s originality, methodology, significance, and clarity. They provide detailed feedback and recommend one of the following outcomes: acceptance, minor revisions, major revisions, or rejection.

  5. Editorial Decision: The editorial team considers the reviewers’ recommendations and makes the final decision. Authors are notified of the decision along with the reviewers’ feedback.

  6. Revisions and Resubmission: If revisions are required, authors are given the opportunity to revise their manuscript in response to the reviewers’ comments. Revised manuscripts may undergo additional rounds of review.

  7. Final Decision and Publication: Once the manuscript meets the reviewers’ and editors’ standards, it is accepted for publication and scheduled for release in an upcoming issue.

The entire process is designed to be thorough, transparent, and fair, ensuring that only high-quality research is published in JSIED.
