Important: LaTeX Submission Standards

To ensure a smooth editorial and production process, AEI requires authors using LaTeX to follow a structured submission workflow.

  • Submit Source and Review File: Authors must submit the LaTeX source package and a compiled PDF or Word export for peer review.
  • Edit Components Carefully: Authors should only edit the designated metadata, abstract, sections, figures, tables, and references files.
  • Figures and Tables: All figures must be clear, readable, and preferably high resolution. Tables must be editable and properly cited in the manuscript.
  • Plagiarism Check: A readable PDF or Word version is required because similarity checking tools work best with text-based documents.

Required Submission Package

1. Cover Letter To Editor

Addressed to the Editor-in-Chief. The cover letter should briefly explain the manuscript’s originality, novelty, contribution to educational innovation, and suitability for AEI.

2. Article Manuscript Blind Review

The main manuscript file must be fully anonymous. Do not include author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, email addresses, or any identity markers in the blind manuscript.

3. Title Page and Metadata Full Identity

A separate file containing the article title, author names, institutional affiliations, corresponding author email, ORCID IDs where available, abstract, keywords, and funding information if applicable.

4. Statement Letter Required

Includes originality declaration, authorship responsibility, conflict of interest statement, research ethics statement, copyright agreement, and AI-use declaration where applicable.

5. Similarity / Plagiarism Report Ethics Check

A similarity report may be required during submission or editorial screening. The acceptable similarity threshold is maximum 12%.

Important Note on AI Usage:
AEI acknowledges that digital tools and AI technologies may support academic writing. However, authors must declare how and for what purpose AI tools were used. AI-generated content must not replace the author’s intellectual contribution, analysis, interpretation, or scholarly responsibility.
