Publishing with SciArt Press
SciArt Press believes that scholarly publishing should provide authors with an opportunity to communicate meaningful research findings, contribute new perspectives, and participate in the international exchange of scientific and educational knowledge.
Through Journal of Materials Education (Electronic), we welcome contributions from researchers, academics, educators, engineers, scientists, and professionals whose work advances the understanding, teaching, and application of materials science and engineering.
The journal considers original research articles, review articles, educational case studies, curriculum development papers, laboratory teaching studies, technical education papers, short communications, and other scholarly contributions relevant to its academic scope.
Areas of interest include materials science education, innovative pedagogical approaches, curriculum design, experimental teaching methods, laboratory instruction, educational assessment, materials characterization, processing techniques, educational technologies, and the development of academic and professional training programs.
Contributions addressing scientific and technical developments in materials are also welcomed where they demonstrate clear relevance to educational practice, knowledge dissemination, or the improvement of materials-related academic programs.
We recognize that valuable academic contributions may arise from different research methodologies, theoretical perspectives, educational environments, and institutional settings. Manuscripts are therefore considered on their individual merits, with particular attention to the significance of their contribution, the reliability of the evidence presented, and their relevance to the journal's readership.
SciArt Press supports the principles of editorial independence and scholarly fairness. Publication decisions are the responsibility of the journal's editorial leadership and are based on academic and ethical considerations rather than financial, institutional, or personal interests.
Manuscript preparation and author responsibilities
Authors are encouraged to prepare their manuscripts carefully before submission to ensure that their research is presented clearly, accurately, and in a manner suitable for scholarly evaluation.
Manuscripts submitted to Journal of Materials Education (Electronic) should be written in clear academic English and organized according to the nature of the research. The journal accepts manuscripts prepared in commonly used academic formats, including Microsoft Word and LaTeX. Authors may initially use a recognized academic referencing style, provided that formatting is consistent and all citations are accurate.
A manuscript should normally include an informative title, complete author names and institutional affiliations, corresponding author contact information, an abstract, relevant keywords, the main text, references, and appropriate declarations concerning funding, conflicts of interest, and research ethics. Figures, tables, equations, supplementary materials, and acknowledgements should be included where relevant.
The abstract should communicate the purpose, methodology or approach, principal findings, and scholarly contribution of the work. The main text should present sufficient information to allow readers and reviewers to understand the research question, evaluate the methods, interpret the findings, and assess the conclusions.
All tables and figures must be clearly identified, numbered, and appropriately cited in the manuscript. Authors must ensure that images, illustrations, research data, and other supporting materials are accurate and suitable for publication. Permission must be obtained for the reproduction of copyrighted material whenever required.
References should represent the sources actually used in preparing the manuscript. Authors are responsible for verifying bibliographic information, ensuring that citations support the statements to which they are attached, and maintaining consistency between in-text citations and the reference list. Inaccurate citations, fabricated references, and misleading attribution are unacceptable.
SciArt Press places particular importance on the originality and integrity of scholarly contributions. Manuscripts must represent genuine academic work and must not be simultaneously submitted to another journal. Authors should disclose relevant previous dissemination, including preprints, conference publications, and institutional repository deposits, where applicable.
All individuals listed as authors must have made meaningful scholarly contributions and must approve the submitted manuscript. The corresponding author is responsible for communicating with the editorial office and ensuring that all co-authors agree with the authorship information and the submission.
Research involving human participants, students, teachers, classroom observations, surveys, interviews, or personal information must comply with applicable ethical requirements. Authors should provide appropriate statements concerning ethical approval, informed consent, confidentiality, and data protection, where required. Similar responsibilities apply to studies involving animals, biological materials, environmental samples, or other research activities subject to institutional or regulatory oversight.
Authors must disclose relevant funding sources, institutional support, competing interests, and other circumstances that could influence the interpretation or presentation of their work.
Artificial intelligence tools may be used responsibly for language editing, translation, formatting, and other appropriate forms of assistance. However, such tools cannot be credited as authors, and their use does not replace human accountability. Material contributions from AI tools should be disclosed in accordance with the journal's policies. Authors remain responsible for verifying the accuracy, originality, integrity, and ethical acceptability of all submitted content.
We encourage authors to consult the journal's complete manuscript preparation instructions and publication ethics policies before submitting their work.
Submission, peer review, and publication
Manuscripts intended for publication in Journal of Materials Education (Electronic) should be submitted directly to its editorial office through the submission channel identified on the journal's official website.
Upon receipt, submitted manuscripts undergo an initial editorial assessment to determine whether they satisfy the journal's subject scope, basic scholarly standards, manuscript requirements, and publication ethics expectations.
The initial screening is normally completed within 10 days. Manuscripts considered suitable for further evaluation proceed to the journal's single-blind peer-review process, in which reviewers are aware of the authors' identities while reviewers' identities remain confidential.
Peer reviewers assess manuscripts according to scholarly originality, methodological quality, relevance, clarity, validity of interpretation, and contribution to materials science and engineering education. Their evaluations assist the editors in making informed decisions and provide authors with constructive recommendations for improving their work.
The journal normally aims to complete the review process within four months, although the actual duration may vary depending on the nature of the manuscript, reviewer availability, and the extent of any revisions required.
Following editorial evaluation, a manuscript may be accepted, returned for minor or major revision, invited for resubmission, or rejected. When revisions are requested, authors are expected to address the reviewers' and editors' comments carefully and provide an explanation of the changes made.
Acceptance is determined by the journal's editorial leadership, taking into account the reviewers' assessments, the academic quality of the manuscript, its compliance with publication policies, and its relevance to the journal. Submission does not guarantee publication.
Once a manuscript is accepted, it proceeds through the necessary publication preparation stages, which may include copyediting, typesetting, proofreading, and final author approval. Accepted articles are scheduled for publication in an upcoming issue.
Journal of Materials Education (Electronic) publishes three issues annually, in April, August, and December, under one annual volume.
