Peer Review Process
Peer Review Process
The International Journal of Education and Learning Studies (IJELS), established in 2025 and published by PT. Intelektiva Global Nusantara, applies a rigorous peer review process to ensure the quality, originality, and scientific contribution of all published articles. Editorial decisions are based solely on academic merit, scientific validity, and relevance to the field of education.
1. Initial Editorial Screening
Manuscripts are evaluated within 7–14 days for scope, originality, quality, and adherence to guidelines. Submissions that do not meet requirements may be rejected without external review.
2. Plagiarism Screening
Manuscripts are screened using tools such as Turnitin or iThenticate. The similarity index must not exceed 20%.
3. Double-Blind Peer Review
IJELS applies a double-blind review process involving at least two independent reviewers. Evaluation criteria include originality, methodology, clarity, relevance, and contribution. The review process typically takes 4–8 weeks.
4. Revision Stage
Authors may be required to submit minor or major revisions based on reviewer feedback and must respond to all comments within the specified timeframe.
5. Final Editorial Decision
The Editor makes the final decision based on reviewer reports. Decisions include: accept, minor revision, major revision, or reject.
6. Copyediting and Publication
Accepted manuscripts undergo copyediting and layout formatting before final online publication.
Estimated Timeline
The overall review and editorial decision process typically takes 8–12 weeks from submission to final decision.
