Open Access Policy

Objective: IJEN: Indonesian Journal on Education and Learning is committed to the principles of open access, recognizing the importance of freely disseminating scholarly knowledge to a global audience. Our Open Access Policy is aligned with the belief that open access to research fosters innovation, collaboration, and the democratization of knowledge.

Publication Model: IJEN operates under a fully open access publishing model, meaning that all articles and content are freely accessible to the public immediately upon publication. This approach facilitates a broader reach, enabling researchers, educators, policymakers, and the general public to benefit from and build upon the latest advancements in the field of education and learning.

Authors' Rights and Licensing: Authors publishing with IJEN retain the copyright to their work. To enhance accessibility and reuse, authors are encouraged to choose a Creative Commons license that aligns with their preferences. The default license is often Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY), allowing others to copy, distribute, and display the work, and derivative works can be created based on it, even commercially, as long as they credit the author for the original creation.

Accessibility and Archiving: All published content in IJEN is immediately accessible online, free of charge. The journal employs a robust archiving system to ensure the long-term preservation and availability of all published articles. This archival commitment guarantees that research contributions remain accessible and citable over time.

Global Impact: By embracing open access, IJEN seeks to maximize the global impact of scholarly research. The free availability of high-quality educational research contributes to the enrichment of teaching practices, policy formulation, and academic discourse on a worldwide scale.

Advantages of Open Access with IJEN:

  1. Wider Audience Reach: Open access ensures that research is accessible to researchers, educators, and practitioners globally, fostering a broader impact.

  2. Enhanced Visibility: Published articles are freely available on the IJEN website, leading to increased visibility and citation of authors' work.

  3. Accelerated Knowledge Exchange: Open access accelerates the exchange of ideas and knowledge, promoting collaboration and innovation within the academic community.

Funding and Sustainability: To support the sustainability of the open access model, IJEN may rely on article processing charges (APCs) paid by authors or their institutions upon acceptance of the manuscript. However, the journal is committed to ensuring that financial constraints do not impede access to publication, and alternative arrangements can be considered on a case-by-case basis.

IJEN's Open Access Policy reflects our dedication to advancing education and learning by removing barriers to the dissemination of knowledge. We encourage authors, researchers, and institutions to join us in this commitment to open access and the global exchange of ideas in the field of education.
