Manuscript Structure

The manuscript should adhere to the following structure:

  • Title: The title should reflect the main and concise content of the manuscript. It should be clear, informative, and engaging, limited to a maximum of 14 words. The title should avoid starting with words like "study," "research," "analysis," or "development." Additionally, it should be unambiguous and clearly identify the content.
  • Authors and Affiliations: List author names without academic titles or any credits. If there is more than one author, list them all. Affiliation includes the department/program of the faculty, university, author's address, and state. Designate the corresponding author (including their email address) by adding an asterisk (*) after the author's name. Author names are written below the title, using Calibri 12pt Bold, Align Left with single spacing and no space before and after. Author affiliations are presented with thumbnail numbers below the author's name, using Calibri 11 Align Left and single spacing. The correspondence address (i.e., email address) is written below the affiliation and uses Calibri Italic 11, Align Left with single spacing. Don't forget to include an active and reachable WhatsApp number for journal management.
  • Abstract: The abstract should include the study/research/development/thought's objectives, how the activity was conducted (including methods), the results of the study/research/development/thought, and conclusions. The abstract also includes the novelty of the study/research/development/thought and recommendations for the development of education and linguistics. An abstract is often presented separately from the article, so it should be able to stand alone. Avoid references and non-standard or unusual abbreviations in the abstract. If acronyms are deemed necessary, define them at their first mention in the abstract. The abstract is written in continuous sentence form, forming one paragraph (not a mathematical equation or formula), without subheadings, footnotes, bibliographic citations, or abbreviations. The abstract length is 150–200 words (use 1.0 spacing and font size 11).
  • Keywords: Consisting of 5 words or phrases; arranged in order of relevance; includes single words or compound words; not abbreviated.
  • Introduction: The Introduction section contains the background, research gap, problem formulation, research objectives and benefits, and the expected results. This section also includes a literature review consisting of relevant theoretical studies and a review of previous research results (State of the art) to show the limitations of prior research, expected objectives, and research renewal. This section ends with the research framework. This section is a maximum of 25 percent of the article's length.
  • Method: Contains the approach/method used in conducting the research. It is recommended to start with the research approach, variables used, required data, data sources and their selection methods, data collection and analysis methods, and research limitations. This section is approximately 10 percent of the total length.
  • Results and Discussion: Contains research findings that align with the research objectives and interpretations of these findings. Research findings are discussed, analyzed, elaborated, and interpreted towards achieving the research objectives. The article's results include data analysis written descriptively using Calibri 12pt. Tables and figures in each article are limited to a maximum of three (3) in black and white. The discussion presents each finding compared with relevant theory or previous research, facts, comments, and reasonable analysis by the researcher. The use of subsections in the debate is as needed.
  • IMRAD Method: The IMRAD method is used in writing the article.
  • Figures: Figures should be sequentially numbered (e.g., Figure 1, etc.). The title should be center-aligned and placed below the figure.
  • Tables: Tables should be arranged sequentially (e.g., Table 1, etc.). The title should be center-aligned and placed above the table, and the table source should be placed at the bottom of the table.
  • Mathematical Formulas: Mathematical formulas should be numbered and presented clearly using Microsoft.
  • Conclusion: The conclusion is not a summary of research results but contains answers to the objectives. The formulation of the findings uses data from the discussion and is consistent with the problems and research objectives. The writing of conclusions is in the form of a narrative in a paragraph, not in points or numbering. This section is approximately 15 percent of the total manuscript length.
  • Acknowledgments: Acknowledgments are optional. However, research manuscripts funded or sponsored by specific parties must include an acknowledgment containing information about the sponsoring party and gratitude to them.
  • References: Authors must ensure that every reference in the text appears in the reference list and vice versa. Wikipedia, personal blogs, or non-academic sites should not be used. All notes should appear as anonymous citations in the footnotes. The reference list is compiled using the international standard American Psychological Association (APA) Style 7th edition with the help of applications such as Mendeley, Zotero, RefWorks, Endnote, etc. The minimum number of cited references is 20, with a minimum of 80% from primary sources, namely articles published in scientific journals/magazines, dissertations, and theses, and a maximum of 20% from other sources, such as books, newspapers, magazines, etc. The more recent the cited reference, the better. This journal requires the reference list to consist of at least 80% of publications from the last 10 years, and a maximum of 20% can include references more than 10 years ago, including classic (old) references used as historical study material.
