Manuscripts must be written in clear and academically appropriate English. EMAET normally publishes articles in English and uses American English as its default language style. Authors who consistently use British English must indicate this on the first page of the manuscript.

Authors who are not confident in the quality of their English are encouraged to obtain professional language editing before submission. Language editing may improve readability but does not guarantee acceptance or influence the editorial decision.

The editorial team may request additional language revision when grammatical, terminological, or stylistic problems substantially affect the clarity of the manuscript.

Manuscripts should contain approximately 5,000–8,000 words, including the abstract, tables, figure captions, acknowledgments, appendices, and references. Longer manuscripts may be considered when the complexity of the development process and empirical evaluation justifies the additional length.

• File format: Microsoft Word document, preferably .docx.
• Main text: Times New Roman, 12 pt, single-spaced.
• Page size: A4 with consistent margins.
• Pages and lines should be numbered to facilitate peer review.
• Authors must use the official EMAET manuscript template.

• Include important research terms in the article title.
• Avoid unnecessarily long, vague, or overly creative titles.
• Provide three to five specific and searchable keywords.
• Include central keywords naturally in the opening sentences of the abstract.
• Use relevant keywords in major section headings when academically appropriate.

The title must be concise, informative, and written in title case. It should clearly indicate the educational product, development context, or principal contribution of the study.

Abbreviations, unnecessary technical expressions, sensational language, and unsupported claims should be avoided. The editorial office may recommend a revised title when the submitted title does not accurately represent the study.

• Provide each author’s full and accurate name.
• Affiliations should include the department or faculty when relevant, institution, and country.
• Do not include street addresses, postal codes, academic positions, or unnecessary institutional details.
• Identify the corresponding author and provide an active institutional or professional email address.
• All listed authors must satisfy recognized authorship criteria and approve the submitted and final versions of the manuscript.

• Main headings: Times New Roman, 14 pt, bold.
• Subheadings: Times New Roman, 12 pt, bold.
• Headings must be concise, consistent, and hierarchically organized.

The abstract must be written in English as one structured paragraph of no more than 300 words. It should briefly present:

• research background and problem;
• objective of the development study;
• development model and participants;
• principal findings on validity, practicality, usability, or effectiveness;
• the ethical, moral, or religious value integrated into the product; and
• main conclusion and contribution.

References, unexplained abbreviations, tables, figures, and unsupported claims must not appear in the abstract.

Authors must provide three to five keywords arranged alphabetically and separated by semicolons.

Abbreviations should be limited and defined at first use. Nonstandard, regional, technical, religious, or cultural terms must be explained clearly. A list of abbreviations may be included when numerous specialized terms are used.

EMAET research and development articles should normally contain:

1. Introduction
2. Method
3. Results and Discussion
4. Conclusion
5. Acknowledgments, when applicable
6. Funding Statement
7. Conflict of Interest Statement
8. Data Availability Statement, when applicable
9. References

Acknowledgments may identify individuals, institutions, or organizations that contributed to the study but do not meet authorship criteria.
