Authorship Criteria

Edutech: Jurnal Teknologi Pendidikan follows the COPE Core Practices on authorship and contributorship. Authorship is limited to individuals who meet all of the following criteria:

  1. Made a substantial contribution to the conception or design of the study, or to the acquisition, analysis, or interpretation of data;
  2. Drafted the manuscript or revised it critically for important intellectual content;
  3. Approved the final version to be published; and
  4. Agree to be accountable for all aspects of the work, including its accuracy and integrity.

Contributors who do not meet all four criteria (for example, those who provided technical assistance, language editing, data collection support only, or general supervision) must be listed in the Acknowledgements section. Guest, gift, and ghost authorship are not permitted. Generative AI tools cannot be listed as authors, in line with the journal's AI Use Policy.

Corresponding author. The corresponding author acts on behalf of all co-authors, ensures that all authors have approved the submitted and final versions, and handles all communication with the editorial office.

Order and changes of authorship. Authors must confirm the author list, the corresponding author, and the order of authors at submission. Requests to add, remove, or reorder authors during review must be sent to the Editor-in-Chief with a written explanation signed by all authors. Changes to authorship are not accepted after a manuscript has been accepted for publication.

Authorship disputes are handled following the relevant COPE flowcharts. The journal does not adjudicate disputes and may refer them to the authors' institutions.
