2. Conceptions and methods for pre-service and in-service mathematics’ teacher training.

3. Methods of obtaining mathematical goals at different levels of mathematical education.

4. Teaching and learning process at different levels of mathematical education.

5. Didactical proposals for different mathematical courses and innovative modes of their organizing.

6. Proposals of original lectures, classes or seminars for university students of mathematics.

7. Relationships between pure mathematics and mathematics for teaching at schools.

8. New technologies in mathematical education.

9. Mathematical modeling and application of mathematical theories for teaching and learning process.

Peer Review Process

1. Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis. Studia ad Didacticam Mathematicae Pertinentia publish original research studies, review studies and original educational studies   such as proposals for lectures, workshops or seminaries.

 

2. Submitted manuscript has neither been published previously nor is currently being considered for publication elsewhere.

 

3.  All manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer review process.

 

4.   A review system is an anonymous whereby the identity of the author(s) of a manuscript is concealed from the reviewers. All details that may enable a reviewer to identify the author(s) of a manuscript are removed from the manuscript before the manuscript is sent to the reviewer. Similarly, the reviewers’ identities are also concealed from the author(s) when sending the reviewers’ comments to the author(s).

 

5. Reviewers should not belong to a scientific unit affiliated by the author of the manuscript.

 

6. A written review should include an explicit request from the reviewer regarding the conditions for admitting a manuscript scientific article for publication or its rejection.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF AUTHORS

By submitting a manuscript to Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis. Studia ad Didacticam Mathematicae Pertinentia (AUPC SDMP in short), the author(s) warrant that the manuscript is their own, original work and that it has neither been published previously nor is currently being considered for publication elsewhere. They also warrant that the sources of any ideas and/or words in the manuscript that are not their own have been properly attributed through citations and/or quotes.

An author should not publish manuscripts describing essentially the same research in many journals.

All sources of financial support for the research should be disclosed in the manuscript.

The author(s) of a manuscript agree that if the manuscript is accepted for publication, the published article will be copyrighted using a Creative Commons “Attribution-Non Commercial-Share Alike” license. This license allows the author(s) to retain the copyright, but also allows others to freely copy, distribute, and display the copyrighted work, and derivative works based upon it, under certain specified conditions.

Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission to include any images or artwork for which they do not hold copyright in their articles, or to adapt any such images or artwork for inclusion in their articles. The copyright holder must be made explicitly aware that the image(s) or artwork will be made freely available online as part of the article under a Creative Commons “Attribution-Non Commercial-Share Alike” license.

The authors’ names should be listed on the article in order of their contribution to the article, and all authors take responsibility for their own contributions. Only those individuals who have made a substantive contribution should be listed as authors; those whose contributions are indirect or marginal should be named in an “Acknowledgments” section at the end of the article, immediately preceding the Reference List. The corresponding author must ensure that all appropriate co-authors and no inappropriate co-authors are included on the article, and that all listed co-authors have seen and approved the final version of the article and agreed to its publication.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF REVIEWERS

AUPC SDMP reviewers perform work for the journal on a volunteer basis.

Reviewers should not accept manuscript review assignments for which they feel unqualified.

When have accepted manuscript assignments they are normally expected to submit their reviews within four weeks. They should recuse themselves from the assignment if it becomes apparent to them at any stage that they may have a potential conflict of interest in performing the review (e.g., one resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, institutions, or companies associated with the manuscript).

Privileged information or ideas obtained by reviewers through the peer review process must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents, and must not be shown to or discussed with others except as authorized by the Editor.

When conducting their reviews, reviewers are asked to do so as objectively as possible, refraining from engaging in personal criticism of the author(s). They are encouraged to express their views clearly, explaining and justifying all recommendations made. They should always attempt to provide detailed and constructive feedback to assist the author(s) in improving their work, even if the manuscript is, in their opinion, not publishable.

Reviewers should identify in their reviews relevant published work that has not been cited by the author(s), together with any instances in which proper attribution of sources has not been provided. They should call to the responsible editor’s attention any major resemblances between a manuscript under consideration and other published articles or papers of which they are aware, as well as any concerns they might have in relation to the ethical acceptability of the research reported in the manuscript.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF EDITORS

The Editor has ultimate responsibility for deciding if a manuscript submitted to journal should be published. The Editor may consult with the Associate Editor and other members of the editorial team, as well as with reviewers, in making publication decisions.

The editors will not disclose any information about a manuscript under consideration to anyone other than the author(s), reviewers and potential reviewers, and in some instances the editorial board members, as appropriate. Additionally, the editors will make every effort to ensure the integrity of the blind review process by not revealing the identity of the author(s) of a manuscript to the reviewers of that manuscript, and vice versa.
