Plagiarism Screening

As part of plagiarism prevention measures, authors are required to check their manuscripts using Turnitin or similar plagiarism detection software to identify similarities with previously published works prior to submission. A second plagiarism screening will be conducted by the journal editor during the editorial process.

Submitted manuscripts must be original works that have not been previously published and are not under consideration elsewhere. Any direct quotations from other sources must be clearly distinguished from the author’s original text by using (1) indentation, (2) quotation marks, and (3) proper citation of the original source. Paraphrasing is strongly recommended rather than excessive direct quotation.

Manuscripts submitted to Istifkar: Media Transformasi Pendidikan must have a similarity index of less than 30%.
