Article Submission Guide
***The Journal of National Education is currently experiencing a high volume of submissions. As a result, there is a substantial queue of articles that have either passed the review process or are still under evaluation for upcoming issues. Due to this, the time required for a new article to progress from the preliminary review stage to publication may take approximately 600 days. We strongly advise authors to consider the possibility of a longer-than-expected evaluation process before submitting their manuscripts. Please note that once an article is submitted to the system, in cases of rejection and withdrawal, no refund will be issued.

When submitting an article to the Journal of National Education, please ensure compliance with the following guidelines:
1. Before submission, read and adhere to all items in the Editorial Principles. Ensure that all required documents stated in the Editorial Principles are uploaded to the system during the application process.
2. Prepare your manuscript using the Article Template and ensure that all specifications within the template are maintained. After placing your manuscript in the template, only remove the yellow-highlighted notes. (If your manuscript is accepted, it will be published in its submitted form. Compliance with the template is therefore mandatory and essential.)
3. Submit an anonymous full-text manuscript in Word format. Ensure that neither the file name nor the manuscript content includes any names, surnames, or other identifying information about the author(s). (When uploading anonymous article files to the DergiPark system, name the file “Full Text_Anonymous.”)
4. Submit a named full-text manuscript in Word format. The article should include author names and other necessary details in the relevant sections. (When uploading named article files to the DergiPark system, name the file as “Full Text_Named.”)
5. Upload the Application Petition with complete details, including the article title, article type, author names, authors' contact information (email, phone, workplace), and ORCID details. (Name the file as “Application Petition”)
6. Upload the similarity report. Authors will be directed to the intihal.net to generate this report. The full report must be uploaded in PDF format. (Name the file as “Similarity Report”)
7. Upload the Copyright Transfer Form. Ensure that the form includes the authors' details and signatures. (Name the file as “Copyright Transfer Form”)
8. Upload the Ethics Committee Permission Certificate. If an ethics committee approval is not required, authors must upload a document explaining the reason. The institution, date, and decision number of the Ethics Committee Approval should be stated in the methodology section of the manuscript. If no ethics approval is needed, the justification should also be provided in the methodology section. Institutional or personal research permissions do not replace Ethics Committee Approval. (Name the file as “Ethics Committee Permission Certificate”)
9. For research conducted in institutions affiliated with the Ministry of National Education (central, provincial, or international branches), upload the Ministry’s ‘Research and Application Permission Certificate.’ If not required, authors must submit a document explaining the reason. (Name the file as “Research and Application Permission Certificate”)
10. Upload the payment receipt as proof of submission fee payment. Detailed information on fees is available on the journal’s fee policy page. (Name the file as “Receipt”)

Additionally:
- If a revision is requested, update both the named and anonymous versions of the manuscript and upload the revised versions over the previous files. Do not create separate additional files.
- If a revision is requested, provide a Reviewer Correction Table detailing the revisions made and justifications for any suggestions that were not implemented. Upload this document as an additional file during the revision stage.
- If a revision is requested, update the Article Metadata section on the DergiPark page after each revision. Ensuring that the metadata aligns with the final version of the manuscript is the author's responsibility.
- Technical issues or errors encountered during submission are not the responsibility of the Journal of National Education. If you require assistance, contact the DergiPark Technical Support Team.
- Due to the high volume of submissions, the evaluation and publication process at the Journal of National Education may take longer than expected. Authors should consider this time frame before submission.
- Reasons for manuscript rejection at the preliminary review stage are outlined in the Editorial Principles of Journal of National Education, Aims and Scope.
- Article submission via email is not accepted, and contacting editorial staff through personal emails or phone numbers regarding publication matters is not appropriate. The status of submitted manuscripts is available in the "Status" section of DergiPark for corresponding authors. Authors are responsible for tracking their submission status through the DergiPark system and should use the platform’s messaging feature for communication when necessary.
