Editorial Policy
-
Manuscripts submitted to the 5th AICoLLiM Annual International Conference on Language, Literature and Media go through an internal review and if they meet the basic requirements, they are forwarded for single blind peer review. Comments from the external reviewers are sent to the authors and they are notified of the decision.
To be published in this proceeding, a paper should meet general criteria:
- The paper submitted in the journal must follow Conference Theme and the template of this proceeding.
- The submitted manuscript must be original, unpublished work, and not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
- It must fulfil scientific merit and novelty or new contribution to knowledge to the focus and scope of this study
- Written in English. Authors whose English is not their native language are encouraged to have their paper checked for grammar and clarity before submission.
- It is free from plagiarism content. All authors are suggested to use plagiarism detection software (please use Turnitin or iThenticate). Editors will also check its similarity (maximum similarity 15%).
Typographical, grammatical, content clarity and format compliance of manuscripts are the author's responsibility(s). Manuscripts not meeting these conditions will be returned to the authors. Before a manuscript is given to a reviewer, details that could reveal to a reviewer of author(s)'s identity in the manuscript would be erased. When sending the reviewers' comments to the author(s), the reviewers' identities are likewise hidden from the author(s). Reviewers are expected to assess the manuscripts and provide helpful feedback so that the author(s) can improve the quality of the manuscript. The manuscript is also judged on its originality, contribution, technical excellence, presentation clarity, and research depth. In general, to be acceptable, a paper should represent an advance in understanding likely to influence thinking in the field. There should be a discernible reason why the work deserves the visibility of publication in the 4th AICoLLiM Annual International Conference on Language, Literature and Media Proceeding. The final decision of manuscript acceptance is solely made by Editorial team according to the reviewers' comments.
