GENERAL GUIDE

Articles for SJPE cover all research in science education. Manuscripts must be written in Times New Roman, font size 10 points, 1 space, one column, and A4 paper size. Articles are written in English or Indonesian using Microsoft Word in *.doc or *.rft format.

The names of the users (personal or team), listed without an academic degree with the address of the institution and placed under the title of the article. For manuscripts written by the team, the editor only communicates with the appropriate authors. The email address and phone number of the appropriate author should be entered for easy communication.

Articles must be written in English and Indonesian with the following requirements: Title, written briefly and effectively, font size 14 points, middle and bold; Abstract, written with the following subheadings: Research objectives [50-60 words], Methodology [50-60 words], main findings [50-80 words], Originality/Novelty of Research [50-60 words]; Keywords, Minimum 3 quality keywords separated by (;) is given. 2 or 3 keywords are also present in the article title; Introduction, (without subtitles) which contains background, literature review, gap analysis and research objectives; Methods, must explain the research design clearly, procedures/research frameworks, instruments, data analysis, and relevant modifications must be explained; Results and Discussion, this section must be presented in the same section where all data/results must be followed by an explanation or discussion. This section should contain an explanation of the research findings by comparing the relevant literature or research. The research position should be clear whether it is in line with or contradicts the literature; Conclusion, presented clearly by concluding the research results; and References, The main references are international journals and proceedings. All references must come from the most relevant and current sources. References are written in IEEE style.

The tables and figures presented follow the Scientific Writing Guidelines or directly imitate the way the article is published.

All manuscripts are reviewed by anonymous reviewers who are appointed by the editors based on their research interests or areas of expertise. Authors are given the opportunity to make improvements (revisions) of the manuscript as suggested by the reviewer or editor. Acceptance or rejection of the manuscript will be notified via email.

Journal Evaluation in Education charges the following author fees.

Article Submission: 0.00 (IDR)
