Peer Review Process
Overview
TIFADUCATION follows a rigorous and transparent peer-review process to ensure the quality, integrity, and credibility of published articles. The journal uses a blind peer-review system, where reviewers remain anonymous to authors, while authors’ identities are disclosed to reviewers. This ensures fair and objective evaluation. Submissions are assessed for originality, relevance, methodology, and contribution to the field before a final publication decision.
