B. Structure of the Manuscript

Manuscripts submitted to JOGEDUP should be organized as follows:

1. Title

The title should be written in sentence case, free of abbreviations or acronyms, and clearly convey the central theme or focus of the study.

2. Abstract

The abstract should summarize the manuscript in no more than 250 words, written in Times New Roman, single-spaced. It should not contain citations and must include:

background of the research problem,
proposed solution or purpose of the study,
research design,
methods used,
key findings,
analysis,
and main conclusions.

3. Main Sections (IMRaD Format)

Manuscripts should follow the IMRaD structure:

a. Introduction

Explain the significance of the study, the problem addressed, relevant previous research, existing research gaps, and how the current study contributes to filling those gaps. If applicable, hypotheses should be stated at the end of this section.

b. Methods

Provide a clear and detailed description of the research procedures, including the population, sample, instruments, materials, and analytical techniques used. The description should be detailed enough to allow replication and is typically written in past tense and passive voice, with subheadings as needed.

c. Results and Discussion

Results: Present the findings objectively, using tables and figures as appropriate. Figures should have captions below them, while tables should have titles above them. Use past tense.
Discussion: Interpret the findings, relate them to existing literature, highlight contributions, acknowledge limitations, and propose directions for future research.

d. Conclusion

Summarize the key outcomes of the study. Discuss how the findings support the research objectives, their relation to previous work, and their broader implications for advancing knowledge.

4. References

Authors must include at least 20 references, with a minimum of five sources published within the last ten years unless older sources are needed for theoretical or historical context. All citations must follow APA style. While authors are responsible for the accuracy of references, the editorial team may revise grammar and layout for consistency.
