The journal is dedicated to promoting the advancement of education in the world by providing a platform for researchers, scientists, and academics to publish their research findings and share their knowledge with the broader scientific community. Jurnal Eduscience (JES) welcomes submissions from researchers, scientists, and academics around the world on topics including:

• Innovation in Teaching and Learning
  Use of technology in teaching and learning; development of methods, models, strategies, and media in teaching and learning.
• Learning Assessment
  Assessment of cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning; development of instruments in hard skills and soft skills of students.
• Evaluation in Education
  Covers the study and research of effective evaluation methods, tools, and approaches in formal and non-formal education. The main focus is on developing and implementing evaluation strategies that measure student learning outcomes, teacher efficacy, and the impact of educational programs or policies. 

• Management in Education
  Explores effective management strategies for educational institutions at the school, university, and wider education policy levels. Research on governance, leadership, strategic planning, and managerial innovation in education.
• Teacher Training and Professional Development

• Learning Based on Local Wisdom
  Highlights the importance of local wisdom as part of the learning process and how local traditions, values, and knowledge can be integrated in education. Focus on research that promotes local relevance in curriculum and teaching methods. 

Types of Published Articles

Jurnal Eduscience (JES) is published either as a research article or a review article. 
1. Research articles: report original research findings in the education field. The research article should include a clear research question, methodology, results, and conclusion. The article should also provide a clear and concise discussion of the research findings, their implications, and their contributions to the relevant field of study. Jurnal Eduscience (JES) does not accept case studies unless it is a study that has a wide impact on the community or industry. The total length of the manuscript, including references, must not exceed 10,000 words.
2. Review articles: comprehensively review the existing literature on a specific topic in education. Review articles should critically analyze and synthesize the literature, identify knowledge gaps, and suggest future research directions. The format and length of review papers are more flexible than research articles. Typical reviews are less than 12,000 words, including references.

All published articles in Jurnal Eduscience (JES) should be based on rigorous and ethical research and adhere to the highest standards of scientific integrity. The journal encourages the submission of articles that present innovative and original research and contribute to developing new theories, methodologies, and techniques.

Peer Review Process

All submissions to Jurnal Eduscience (JES) undergo a rigorous peer-review process to ensure the quality and validity of the published research. The journal encourages the submission of papers that present innovative and original research, as well as those that contribute to the development of education.

Jurnal Eduscience (JES) is committed to promoting open access to scientific research and aims to make research accessible to a broader audience, including researchers and students in developing countries who may not have access to expensive scientific journals. The journal also seeks to foster collaboration and partnerships between researchers around the world and to facilitate the exchange of ideas and knowledge between different scientific disciplines.

Peer Review Process
All submissions to Jurnal Eduscience (JES) undergo a rigorous peer-review process to ensure the quality and validity of the published research. The journal operates a double-blind peer review process, meaning that the authors and the reviewers are anonymous. The review process is carried out by experts in the relevant fields of study, who evaluate the submitted manuscripts based on their scientific merit, originality, and relevance to the journal's scope.

1. Initial evaluation: Upon receipt of a manuscript, the editorial board will conduct an initial evaluation to ensure that the manuscript meets the scope and focus of the journal and adheres to the publication conditions. Manuscripts that do not meet these requirements will be rejected without further review. The manuscript with a higher than 25% similarity will be rejected in this stage. The editorial office will check the article formatting and citation styles and adhere to the specified author guidelines. If the required conditions are unmet, the manuscript will be returned to the author for reformatting and resubmission. If the manuscript passes approval, it will be sent to reviewers.

2. Assignment of reviewers: The editorial board will select three independent reviewers who are experts in the relevant field of study and have experience in the research area the manuscript covers. The reviewers will be blinded to the identity of the authors, and the authors will be blinded to the identity of the reviewers. The listing of the names of the authors, acknowledgments, and references to author contributions must be removed from the manuscript and posted in the title page file. The assigned editor will then send invitations to reviewers. The invited reviewers are expected to be affiliated with differing institutions from those of the corresponding authors. Moreover, reviewers will consider the invitation according to their own scientific expertise, any potential conflicts of interest, and other relevant criteria. Our journal is committed to assigning reviewers within two weeks.

3. Review process: The reviewers will evaluate the manuscript based on its scientific quality, originality, validity, and relevance to the field of study. The reviewers are usually given two weeks to review the research work. They will provide constructive feedback to the authors to help improve the manuscript and may recommend acceptance, rejection, or revision of the manuscript.

4. Decision: The editor-in-chief will make the final decision on whether to accept, reject, or request a revision of the manuscript based on the feedback provided by the reviewers and the manuscript's adherence to the publication conditions. If the comments/responses of the reviewers differ significantly, the academic editor may invite an additional individual to review the manuscript before making the final decision. The academic editor will send a decision (with rejection, acceptance, or the need for major or minor revisions) to the author via the online system, along with any relevant comments submitted by the reviewers. As our journal adopts the double-blind, peer-review principle, all comments and suggestions remain anonymous. The average time from submission to the first decision will be one month, and from acceptance to publishing will be 2-4 weeks.

5. Revision process: If the manuscript is accepted with revision, the authors will be asked to revise the manuscript based on the feedback provided by the reviewers and resubmit it for further review. Re-submitted material must include the revised manuscript with highlighted changes and a rebuttal letter. The author is usually given two weeks (for minor revisions) and four weeks (for major revisions) to revise the manuscript. The major revised manuscript will undergo a second round of review by the same reviewers, who will evaluate whether the revisions adequately address their feedback. For minor revisions, the subsequent review process may not be necessary.

6. Publication: Once the manuscript has been accepted for publication, the authors will be asked to submit a final version of the manuscript, which will be copyedited and formatted for publication in the journal.

This peer review process will ensure that all manuscripts submitted to the Jurnal Eduscience (JES) are evaluated based on the highest standards of scientific integrity and ethical conduct and that only the highest quality research is published.
