Publicacion Policy

The manuscript evaluation process at the Revista Chilena de Pedagogía will be carried out by expert evaluators in the subject, under the double-blind system, in which authors and evaluators do not know each other's identity and institutional affiliation. The Editorial Team will consider the pertinence of the material received, notifying the author in due time about the acceptance or rejection of the material sent. The evaluation process includes the following stages and actions:

1. Every manuscript should be sent through the OJS platform from the option “Send article” https://revistadepedagogia.uchile.cl/index.php/RCHP/about/submissions

2. The submission will be reviewed in the first instance by the editorial team in order to check originality and fit with the focus of the journal. All manuscripts received will be passed through the Turnitin plagiarism detection software. The usual time frame established for this process is four weeks.

3. The editorial team may reject a submission if it does not meet the minimum standards of readability and academic structure.

4. Once the deadline for the reception of articles has passed, the editorial team will contact at least two evaluators, who will not know each other, nor will they have any background on the authors. Likewise, the authors will not know who will review their article. The usual period established for reviews is four weeks.

5. In case of discrepancy between the peer reviewers, the editorial team will ask another peer reviewer to join the process until the acceptance or rejection of the article is clarified.

6. The external evaluators may rate the text in any of the following categories:

- Accepted without modifications.

- Accepted with modifications.

- Rejected.

7. The editorial team will gather in a single document the evaluations of each article and send them to the respective authors through the platform, in order to inform the reasons for acceptance or rejection, or if modifications must be made to the document to be accepted and the deadlines for resubmission.

8. In case the manuscript is subject to corrections, the editorial team will receive the new version and will verify compliance with the observations and suggestions made by the evaluators.

9. By sending contributions to the Revista Chilena de Pedagogía, it should be understood that the authors know and subscribe to its copyright conditions.

The complete evaluation process of a manuscript sent to the Revista Chilena de Pedagogía usually takes between 4 and 24 weeks, from its reception to the evaluation report.
