This magazine; Adopting the principle that providing scientific research to the public free of charge will increase the global sharing of knowledge, it provides instant open access to its content. Names and email addresses on this journal site will be used only for the stated purposes of this journal; It will not be made available for any other purpose or use by other persons. The copy editing phase aims to improve the fluency, clarity, grammatical structure, word choice and format of the article. This is the last opportunity for the author to make significant changes to his article; because in the next step, only string and format corrections will be made. Since the file to be copied is in MS Word or .rtf file format, it can be easily edited as a word processing document. Two approaches to fixes are suggested here. The first is to use the "Track Changes" feature of the MS Word program. However, when this path is selected, the author, copy editor, and editor must have access to the program. The second proposed system is software independent and is reproduced here with permission from the Harvard Educational Review. The journal editor can modify these instructions to make them more suitable for the journal's own operation.


Copy Editing Systems

1. When the "Track Changes" feature of MS Word and the "Track Changes" feature under Review in the Menu bar are enabled, the copy editor can make the changes it deems necessary. The texts he adds are shown in a different color, the places he removes are strikethrough, colored or deleted in the margin. The copy editor can write whatever they want to ask the author or editor in square brackets. The document passing through the copy editor is uploaded to the system to be forwarded to the editor. The editor reviews the text and presents it to the author's opinion. The editor and the author approve the corrections they see fit and return them to the normal format, they can change it if they wish, or they can make new additions or deletions in different colors. If there are questions in the text in square brackets, the author and editor should answer these questions in the relevant brackets. After reviewing the text by the author and editor, the copy editor approves the changes one last time, and the text is ready for page editing and typesetting.

2. Instructions for making electronic edits to the manuscript draft by the Harvard Educational Review method When making electronic edits to the draft text, follow the procedure below: Responding to suggested changes If you approve of the proposed changes, change the relevant text from bold to regular font. If you do not approve the proposed changes, re-enter the original text and make it bold. Making additions and subtractions Mark the part you have added in bold font. Mark the text to be deleted with square brackets as follows: [text to delete] If you are deleting a sentence or more, add a note to the corresponding field. For example: [deleted 2 sentences: text to be deleted] Answering the questions directed to the author Do not touch the questions directed to the author, do not delete them, leave them in bold in the text. Add your answer as [Author's note:] to the end of the questions directed to the author. For example:[Author's note: Methodology discussion expanded as you suggested.] Commenting Use the Comment section to describe changes and major revisions to article editing, for example [Comment: Paragraph above moved from page 5 to page 7] Note: When giving page numbers, Use the page numbers on the hard copy you receive. Page numbers may change during electronic transactions.
