Peer-review Process

Manuscripts should meet the specific requirements prescribed by the editorial office of the journal. Editors are entitled to send a manuscript back for improving or to reject due to considerable non-compliance with the editorial policy, journal ethical standards, requirements for manuscripts. Authors receive a notice of receipt, return, or rejection of manuscripts via e-mail.

Peer-review process

All materials are subject to an external peer-review by an expert in the relevant specialty. There is a system of a double “blind” peer-review in the journal. 

A peer-reviewer has three options after examining materials:

1) to publish in the author’s edition;

2) to publish with minor alternations made by the editorial board;

3) to send an author’s manuscript back (if it needs improving; the author can send the improved manuscript again);

4) to reject the publication (if a manuscript doesn’t meet the editorial policy, ethical norms, requirements for manuscripts).

Every issue of journal "Professional and Applied Didactics" is subject to an external peer-review conducted by the scientists having a scientific degree of Doctor of Sciences, an academic rank of Professor, as well as recommended by the HEI "Podillia State University".
