Author Guidelines

Submission, Initial Assessment and Peer Review
The Juornal SAINTEK has a completely web-based system for manuscript submission and review. Submissions must be prepared in accordance with the Author Guidelines and uploaded to https://ejournal.unsrittomohon.ac.id/index.php/buletinsariputra/user/register. Manuscripts may be returned to the author without scientific assessment if the manuscript does not meet all submission requirements, if the format is incorrect, or cannot be downloaded reliably.

Submissions must represent the original and independent work of the author. Each new submission is assessed by one or more editors to determine whether the submission falls within the general remit of Journal SAINTEK. We will reject manuscripts without review if they contain inappropriate content; does not have clear application in the field of education; its primary concern is with the development and advancement of methodologies and not with the application of those methods to education; there are substantive problems with the design, methodology, or data quality; it exceeds our word limit or is formatted incorrectly; it is poorly presented and unclear.

Manuscripts that pass the initial assessment are assigned to subject experts on our team of Associate Editors to oversee the review process. All papers are subject to peer review and authors can expect a decision, or an explanation for the delay, within one month of acceptance. If revisions are invited, the corresponding author must submit the revised manuscript within 2 weeks. The final decision is made by one of the senior editors based on information obtained through the peer review process.
