Peer Review Proses

Framework: Journal of Innovative Educational Research maintains a Double-Blind Peer Review policy to ensure objectivity, transparency, and academic integrity in the publication process.

All research articles published in this journal undergo a double-blind peer review, the key characteristics of which are outlined below:

• Double-blind peer review is a process used in academic publishing to ensure impartiality and prevent bias. In this method, both the author and the reviewer remain anonymous to each other. Identifying information is removed from the manuscript before it is sent to reviewers, so that the reviewer does not know the author’s identity, and vice versa.
• The process begins when an author submits a manuscript. The editor first evaluates its suitability for the journal and then assigns qualified reviewers. The editor maintains confidentiality throughout the review process. Reviewers provide constructive comments and recommendations, which are returned to the author for revision. This process may be repeated until the paper meets the journal’s publication standards.
• The goal of double-blind peer review is to minimize potential bias and promote fairness. This system prevents conflicts of interest and ensures that manuscripts are judged solely on academic merit, not on the author’s identity, institution, or reputation.
• Despite some limitations, double-blind peer review remains a cornerstone of Uplift: Journal of Sustainable Community Development editorial policy, ensuring that every published article upholds rigorous academic and ethical standards.
