Review Policy

Teaching Mathematics and Computer Science applies a double-blind review method, meaning that the identity of reviewers and authors is hidden from each other during the review process.

The Peer Review Process

All submissions are subject to peer review and editorial control of length and style.

If the editors judge that the manuscript meets the aims and scope of the Journal, the paper is sent to two reviewers after a plagiarism check. The reviewer and the author remain anonymous throughout the double-blind review process. Reviewers are selected according to their expertise in their fieldwork.

Submitted papers are reviewed by at least two independent reviewers.

The primary task of reviewers is to assist the Editorial Team in making editorial decisions. Reviewers are requested to evaluate whether the manuscript has already been published in another journal, is theoretically and methodologically sound, contains results that are clearly presented and support the conclusions, and whether the bibliography is appropriate.

Reviewers judge each paper based on the following scale:
1. accept submission;
2. revisions required;
3. resubmit for review;
4. resubmit elsewhere;
5. decline submission.

Kindly note that “resubmit for review” in this context implies the necessity of only uploading a corrected file (revised version), and it does not refer to registering and submitting the revised version as a completely new submission.

If the opinions of the two reviewers differ significantly, the editors also seek the opinion of a third reviewer. After the manuscript has been reviewed, a decision is sent to the corresponding author, along with recommendations made by the reviewers.

All manuscripts are reviewed as rapidly as possible, but the review process usually takes 3-5 months.
