Ordu University Journal of Education Faculty is an international, peer-reviewed, and open-access academic journal that publishes high-quality scholarship in education and education-related disciplines. The Journal’s primary aim is to advance educational knowledge by disseminating original research that contributes to both educational theory and practice, adheres to ethical standards, and demonstrates methodological rigor and scholarly significance.

The Journal welcomes empirical studies (quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods), research syntheses (systematic reviews, meta-analyses, scoping reviews), conceptual and theoretical papers that critically engage with current debates, and manuscripts proposing new theoretical frameworks, models, measurement instruments, or methodological approaches for investigating educational phenomena. When appropriate, submissions that provide strong implications for policy and practice are encouraged.

The Journal’s audience includes researchers and academics, teachers and teacher educators, school leaders and administrators, assessment specialists, counselors, curriculum developers, educational technology professionals, and practitioners and policymakers engaged in educational decision-making.

The Journal operates a double-blind peer review process. All submissions undergo an initial editorial screening and are then evaluated by independent experts. Editorial decisions are based on the manuscript’s originality, scholarly contribution, methodological validity, ethical compliance, clarity of presentation, and relevance to the field. The Journal is committed to publication ethics and best practices to safeguard the integrity of the scholarly record.

The Journal is published biannually. Submissions must be original, not previously published, and not under consideration elsewhere.

The Journal covers all areas of education across the lifespan and learning contexts (early childhood to higher education; formal, non-formal, and lifelong learning) and welcomes manuscripts on (but not limited to):

Curriculum and instruction; instructional design and learning environments

4. Research Integrity and Zero Tolerance for Misconduct

The Journal maintains a zero-tolerance approach to misconduct, including plagiarism, unacceptable text recycling/self-plagiarism, data fabrication/falsification, selective reporting, image manipulation, duplicate/redundant publication, salami publication, authorship misconduct, peer review manipulation, and citation manipulation.

5. Ethical Responsibilities of Authors
5.1 Originality and Submission Policy

Submissions must be original, not under review elsewhere, and not previously published in a substantially similar form. Any overlapping submissions or multiple outputs from the same dataset must be transparently disclosed.

5.2 Thesis/Project-Derived Work

Manuscripts derived from theses/reports/projects may be considered if clearly disclosed at submission and if no copyright restrictions prevent publication.

5.3 Authorship, Contribution, and Accountability

Authorship must reflect substantial intellectual contribution. Guest/gift authorship and ghost authorship are prohibited. The Journal may request an author contribution statement and corresponding author accountability.

5.4 Authorship Changes

Requests to add/remove/reorder authors after submission require a written justification, written agreement from all authors, and editorial approval. As a rule, authorship changes after peer review has started are not accepted.

5.5 Plagiarism, Similarity Checks, and Citation Practices

All sources must be appropriately cited. The Journal may conduct similarity checks and initiate editorial action when overlap is judged unacceptable.

5.6 Data Integrity and Verifiability

Fabrication, falsification, misleading reporting, and image manipulation are unethical. Editors may request raw data/materials for verification where ethically and legally permissible; any restrictions must be justified.

Authors must disclose all actual/potential/perceived conflicts of interest and all funding sources. If none exist, authors should state: “The authors declare no conflict of interest.”

If authors discover significant errors or ethical issues, they must promptly notify the editorial office and cooperate with correction/investigation procedures.

5.10 Use of AI Tools (Transparency)

If AI tools were used (e.g., language editing), authors must disclose the scope and stage of use. AI tools cannot be listed as authors; authors remain fully responsible for the content.

6. Peer Review and Reviewers’ Responsibilities (Double-Blind)

The Journal operates double-blind peer review. Reviewers must maintain confidentiality, declare conflicts of interest and decline when appropriate, provide objective and constructive feedback, meet deadlines, and report suspected ethical issues to the editors.

7. Editors’ Responsibilities and Editorial Independence

Editorial decisions are based solely on scholarly merit and are independent of commercial, institutional, or political influence. Editors protect confidentiality, manage conflicts of interest, and may reassign manuscripts to independent editors when needed. The Journal takes measures against peer review manipulation (e.g., identity checks when necessary).

8. Handling Allegations of Misconduct (COPE)

Allegations are handled confidentially and based on evidence:

receipt and triage,

securing records (files, peer review logs, correspondence),

requesting author responses and documentation,

consulting independent experts and/or institutions when necessary,

final editorial decision.

9. Corrections, Expressions of Concern, and Retractions

The Journal may publish corrections, expressions of concern, or retractions to protect the scholarly record. Notices are dated, publicly accessible, and linked to the original article. Retracted articles remain part of the scholarly record and are clearly marked.
