About the Journal

INLINE is a scholarly journal devoted to learning and instruction in elementary education. It is published by PT Insan Intelektual Nusantara, Bandung, Indonesia, and appears four times a year.

The journal provides a venue for researchers, lecturers, teachers, and graduate students who study how children in primary school learn and how instruction can be improved. It publishes empirical research, conceptual and literature reviews, and reports of classroom practice that speak directly to elementary classrooms.

Publication Ethics

Authors, editors, and reviewers of INLINE are expected to act honestly and fairly. Authors must submit original work, report methods and data honestly, cite the work of others properly, and declare any conflict of interest. Fabrication, falsification, duplicate publication, and plagiarism are not accepted. Reviewers must keep manuscripts confidential, decline review when they have a conflict of interest, and give reasoned and fair assessments. Editors must evaluate manuscripts on scholarly merit alone and keep the review process confidential. Allegations of misconduct are handled by the journal editor, who may reject a manuscript or, if an article is already published, correct or retract it.

Plagiarism and Retraction

Use of Generative AI

Authors who use generative AI tools must disclose that use in the manuscript and remain fully responsible for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of their work. Generative AI tools cannot be listed as authors. Reviewers and editors must not upload manuscripts under review to generative AI services, because submitted manuscripts are confidential.
