Review Process and Peer Review Policy
Manuscripts are reviewed
initially by the Editors and only those meeting the aims and scope
of the journal will be sent for outside review. Each manuscript is
reviewed by at least two referees.
The International Journal of Environmental and Science Education
has a fully e-mail based review system. This system offers authors
the option of tracking by e-mail based review process of their
manuscripts. All manuscripts can be sent as a Word attachment to the
editors at the following e-mail address:
editorijese@gmail.com
The International
Journal of Environmental and Science Education operates a strictly
blinded peer review process in which the reviewer's name is withheld
from the author and the author's name from the reviewer.
Manuscript Presentation
The journal's language is English. Manuscripts should
not exceed for qualitative studies 60 pages and for quantitative
studies 50 pages of printed text, including references, tables and
figures. The
manuscript should be modified
APA Referencing System. References should follow the American
Psychological Association (APA) (Sixth Edition) style in alphabetical order.
Figures
All photographs, graphs and diagrams should be referred to as a
Figure and they should be numbered consecutively (1, 2, etc.).
Multi-part figures ought to be labeled with lower case letters (a,
b, etc.). Please insert keys and scale bars directly in the figures.
Relatively small text and great variation in text sizes within
figures should be avoided as figures are often reduced in size.
Figures may be sized to fit approximately within the column(s) of
the journal. Provide a detailed legend (without abbreviations) to
each figure, refer to the figure in the text and note its
approximate location in the margin. Please place the legends in the
manuscript after the references.
Tables
Each table should be numbered consecutively. In tables, footnotes
are preferable to long explanatory material in either the heading or
body of the table. Such explanatory footnotes, identified by
superscript letters, should be placed immediately below the table.
Please provide a caption (without abbreviations) to each table,
refer to the table in the text and note its approximate location in
the margin. Finally, please place the tables after the figure
legends in the manuscript.
Notes
Please use endnotes rather than footnotes. Notes should be indicated
by consecutive superscript numbers in the text and listed at the end
of the article before the References. A source reference note should
be indicated by means of an asterisk after the title. This note
should be placed at the bottom of the first page.
Acknowledgements
Acknowledgements of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in
a separate section before the References.
