Author Guidelines

Before submitting to the Journal of University Teaching and Learning Practice (JUTLP), authors should review the journal’s Aims and Scope, Publishing Policy, and Manuscript Preparation Guidance to ensure the submission aligns with our focus, quality standards, and ethical requirements. These documents outline what JUTLP publishes, how we assess manuscripts, and the expectations for scholarly contribution, structure, and transparency.

Authors are also encouraged to read our Publishing Guidance for Authors, which provides feed-forward advice from the editorial team on how to maximise the clarity, rigour, and impact of submissions. This guidance offers practical insights into what makes a manuscript successful in JUTLP and how to position work for strong engagement and readership.

All authors should ensure their manuscript follows the required format, uses the JUTLP template, and is prepared in both identifiable and deidentified versions for double-blind review. Further detailed requirements are listed in the Submission Preparation Checklist below.

Submission Preparation Checklist

All submissions must meet the following requirements:

  • File Format. The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF.
  • Use of DOIs. Where available, DOIs for the references have been provided (if no DOI is available, include the URL).
  • Correctly formatted manuscripts according to the Guideline - Manuscript Preparation (Authors). Please use the JUTLP Template to create two versions of your manuscript:
    • An Identifiable manuscript including author details.
    • A Deidentified manuscript that has all author names, affliations, and any other identifiable information removed from the manuscript. This is the version we will send to reviewers for double-blind review so please take care to remove all identifying details throughout the article.
  • Cover Letter. The submission includes an Initial Cover Letter (first submission) or a Revision Cover Letter (submission after revision).

All submissions must:

  • Previous Publication. Not have been been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • Acknowledgements. Include a single paragraph before the references that includes statements about:

JUTLP is a academic-led and volunteer-run journal. We do not charge fees to authors or readers and your compliance in correctly following our guidelines and using our template helps support our volunteer editors with the steamlined and conistent publication of your paper. Thank you.
