Reviewers

For the review of submissions to the Tecnología, Ciencia y Educación journal, two reviewers (a third in cases of discrepancy) will be selected according to their area of specialization (which guarantees a value judgment based on expert knowledge of the subject).

Reviewers will act under the criteria of impartiality, objectivity, promptness, confidentiality, respect and acknowledgement of uncited sources. They must work in solidarity with the publishing line drawn and declare possible conflicts of interest. On the other hand, the reviewers will be external to the author’s institution, and at least 50% of them must be external to the Advisory Council, the Scientific Committee, and the publishing entity.

Reviewers commit:

To make a fair and objective review of the articles.
To respect the deadlines, evaluating the papers in the shortest possible time in order to meet the schedule indicated in the journal’s publication rules.
To clearly state the arguments for their assessment.
Not to accept any articles for review in which there might be a conflict of interest that would limit their objectivity.
Report the detection of artificial intelligence -generated texts.
Refrain from using artificial intelligence to conduct reviews without proper oversight and without informing the editorial team.
Refuse to review an article if you do not feel technically qualified.
To maintain the confidentiality of the information and data of the evaluated articles.
To accurately indicate the bibliographical references of fundamental works that may have been overlooked by the author(s).
To inform the editors of any similarity or overlap of the manuscript with other published works.
To evaluate manuscripts solely on their intellectual content, without regard to the race, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, ethnicity, nationality, or political philosophy of the authors.
Take into account the gender perspective when reviewing papers and in evaluation reports.
Do not use information, data, theories, or interpretations of the manuscript for your own benefit or that of others, or to harm others. Only in special cases may you seek advice from other specialists in the field, a circumstance of which you will inform the journal's editors.

The journal has a database for internal use that processes and registers the transfer of articles and the set of reviewers. The list of reviewers in the one-year review period will be published thereafter. Evaluators who have effectively evaluated at least one article in the one-year review period receive an annual participation certificate as journal reviewers.
