The document outlines important aspects of journal governance towards online accreditation, including author guidelines, peer review processes, diversity, and publication ethics. Key components discussed are the structure of scientific papers (IMRAD), the writing and formatting of abstracts, and the importance of proper referencing. It also emphasizes the responsibilities of authors, reviewers, and editors, as well as the considerations for publication retraction and the progress of the journal in Scopus evaluation.

3. 1. Author guidelines
• Double-Blind Peer Review Guidelines
• This journal ensures double-blind review for
every submitted manuscript. It means that in
the review process, this journal conceals both
the identity of reviewer and author and vice
versa.
•

4. Writing arrangement
• General Organization of the Paper ¬ 12pt,
Times New Roman bold

5. IMRAD VS NON- IMRAD?
• In scientific writing, IMRAD or IMRaD
(/ˈɪmræd/) Introduction, Methods, Results,
and Discussion) is a common organizational
structure (a document format).

6. Introduction
• In Introduction, Authors should state the objectives of the
work at the end of introduction section. Before the
objective, Authors should provide an adequate background,
and very short literature survey in order to record the
existing solutions/method, to show which is the best of
previous researches, to show the main limitation of the
previous researches, to show what do you hope to achieve
(to solve the limitation), and to show the scientific merit or
novelties of the paper.
• This section discusses the purposes of the study or research
problems, the contribution to knowledge, and research
gap. Please state them clearly in the beginning paragraph
supported by related theories in the next paragraphs.

7. Methods
• Materials and methods should make readers be able to
reproduce the experiment. Provide sufficient detail to
allow the work to be reproduced. Methods already
published should be indicated by a reference: only
relevant modifications should be described. Do not
repeat the details of established methods.
• This section explains the rationale for the application of
specific approaches, methods, procedures or
techniques used to identify, select, and analyze
information applied to understand the research
problem/project, thereby, allowing the readers to
critically evaluate your project’s/study's overall validity
and reliability.

8. Results and Discussion
• Results should be clear and concise. The results
should summarize (scientific) findings rather than
providing data in great detail. Please highlight
differences between your results or findings and
the previous publications by other researchers.
The discussion should explore the significance of
the results of the work, not repeat them. A
combined Results and Discussion section is often
appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and
discussion of published literature.

9. Abstract and Keywords
• Abstract should stand alone, means that no citation in
abstract. Consider it the advertisement of your article.
Abstract should tell the prospective reader what you did
and highlight the key findings. The abstract should be in
one paragraph. The font is Times New Roman, 12 pt, italic,
and justify. Abstract is in 200-250 words, which is followed
by 3-5 keywords.
• The abstract should succinctly describe your entire paper. It
comprises of the purposes of the research, method, and
the findings of the research. Keywords are the labels of
your manuscript and critical to correct indexing and
searching. Each words/phrase in keyword should be
separated by a semicolon (;), not a comma (,).

10. Conclusions
• Conclusions should only answer the objectives of
research. Tells how your work advances the field from
the present state of knowledge. Without clear
Conclusions, reviewers and readers will find it difficult
to judge the work, and whether or not it merits
publication in the journal.
• Do not repeat the Abstract, or just list experimental
results. Provide a clear scientific justification for your
work, and indicate possible applications and
extensions. You should also suggest future experiments
and/or point out those that are underway.

11. References
• Cite the main scientific publications on which your
work is based. Cite only items that you have read. Do
not inflate the manuscript with too many references.
Avoid excessive self‐citations. Avoid excessive citations
of publications from the same region.
• Check each reference against the original source
(authors name, volume, issue, year, DOI Number).
Please use Reference Manager Applications like
EndNote, Mendeley, Zotero, etc. Use other published
articles in the same journal as models.

12. • Referensi ideal adalah 30 untuk menuju jurnal
nasional dan 60-100 untuk jurnal
internasional. (By Prof Al Makin).
• Referensi Kurang dari 10 ada Editor yang
mengatakan itu adalah tulisan main-main saja.

• Sumber primer 40-80 persen dari artikel jurnal
dan proceeding. Selebihnya dari buku.
