Peer Review Process

The initial review of the submitted manuscript is conducted by the editors of the Jurnal Ilmu Pendidikan Matematika Indonesia (MATEDO). During this desk evaluation, the editors assess whether the manuscript is suitable for publication based on the journal's focus and scope, originality, similarity score using Crossref Similarity Check/iThenticate, methodological soundness, clarity and readability, quality of references, and compliance with the journal's manuscript template and author guidelines.

If the manuscript is considered suitable, it will be forwarded to at least two qualified anonymous reviewers for a Blind Peer Review process. The reviewers independently evaluate the manuscript's scientific quality, relevance, methodology, originality, presentation, and contribution to the field of mathematics education.

The anonymous reviewers' comments and recommendations are then communicated to the corresponding author, who is responsible for revising the manuscript and providing a response to each reviewer comment. The revised manuscript and authors' responses are subsequently evaluated by the editorial team. Based on the reviewers' recommendations and the quality of the revisions, the editors determine the next stage of the manuscript.

Finally, the Editor communicates the editorial decision to the corresponding author. Manuscripts that are accepted for publication proceed to the copyediting, proofreading, and layout editing stages to prepare the final version of the article before publication.

Review Outcomes

Based on the results of the peer-review process and the recommendations of the reviewers, the Editor makes the final decision regarding publication. The review process typically takes 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the availability of reviewers, the complexity of the manuscript, and the revision process. The possible editorial decisions are:

Reject

The manuscript is rejected and will not be published in the Jurnal Ilmu Pendidikan Matematika Indonesia (MATEDO). Authors may not resubmit the same manuscript in its original form to the journal.

Resubmit for Review

The manuscript requires substantial revisions before it can be considered further. After the authors complete the required revisions, the manuscript may be subjected to another round of peer review.

Accept with Revisions

The manuscript is considered potentially publishable but requires Minor Revisions or Major Revisions before publication. The revised manuscript will be evaluated by the editorial team and, when necessary, returned to the reviewers to ensure that all required corrections and recommendations have been adequately addressed.

Accept

The manuscript is accepted for publication in the Jurnal Ilmu Pendidikan Matematika Indonesia (MATEDO). The accepted manuscript will proceed to the copyediting, proofreading, and layout stages before publication.

Correspondence

All correspondence concerning submitted manuscripts should be directed to the Editor of the Jurnal Ilmu Pendidikan Matematika Indonesia (MATEDO) and copied (cc) to admin@sihojurnal.com.

The Editor will direct all editorial and peer-review communications to the corresponding author. The corresponding author is responsible for communicating relevant information, editorial decisions, reviewer comments, and revision requirements to all co-authors.

In addition to correspondence related to the peer-review process, accepted manuscripts may require further communication during the copyediting, proofreading, and layout editing stages prior to publication.
