Initial Editorial Evaluation
All manuscripts undergo an initial editorial evaluation with regard to their topicality for the journal, originality, scholarly merits, methodology, and conformity to the submission guidelines.
Some manuscripts that fail to meet the basic requirements of the journal or are unrelated to the journal's scope may not even reach the stage of external peer review.

- Quality of evidence and its interpretation
- Topicality for digital education
- Ethical considerations
- Contributions to the scholarly discourse

Editorial Process
Post-review, the editorial board reviews the suggestions of the reviewers and the quality of the manuscript.
Potential decisions can include:
- Accept
- Minor Revision
- Major Revision
- Reject
Manuscripts that have been asked to be revised by authors should take into account the suggestions provided by the reviewers and resubmit their revised manuscripts in due time.
The journal strives to ensure that all decisions are taken purely on academic merit, originality, relevance, research quality, and ethical standards.
