Ethical Guideline for Journal Publication

The publication of an article in a peer-reviewed is an essential building block in the development of a coherent and respected network of knowledge. It is a direct reflection of the quality of the work of the authors and the institutions that support them. Peer-reviewed articles support and embody the scientific method. It is therefore important to agree upon standards of expected ethical behaviour for all parties involved in the act of publishing: the author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer, the publisher and the society.

The editor of the Journal Innovation in Teaching and Instructional Media is responsible for deciding which of the articles submitted to the journal should be published.
