Once Your Final Draft is Accepted.
Please Pay The 80$ Publication Fee
Be advised, your paper will not be published if you:
Other authors have had papers published with unfortunate mistakes. Please don’t let these happen to you:
If you have any questions regarding your paper reviews, revisions, accept/reject decision or paper assignments to timeslots; you must contact editorinchief@in4obe.org directly.
For a paper to be presented at the Summit or included in the Proceedings of Transforming Education for Empowering Learners, it must pass through the entire review process and be accepted as shown below.
Once the final paper is accepted by the editor, you will need to complete the following by May 22, 2022.
By May 15, 2022 you will need to finalize your paper by completing the following requirements:
Formatting may be facilitated by modifying the above template to contain your paper. Beware of “cut and paste” that will bring different formatting to your paper. Hint: Do a Paste Special…. and change to Unformatted Text.
Final draft should be submitted in PDF & Word format along with copyright transfer and plagiarism policy agreement form duly signed by all authors.
If you are not using the template, here are the detailed specifications for your final paper:
The Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is a professional organization supporting many branches of engineering, computer science, and information technology. In addition to publishing journals, magazines, and summit proceedings, IEEE also makes many standards for a wide variety of industries.
IEEE citation style includes in-text citations, numbered in square brackets, which refer to the full citation listed in the reference list at the end of the paper. The reference list is organized numerically, not alphabetically. For examples, see the IEEE Editorial Style Manual.
In-text Citing It is not necessary to mention an author’s name, pages used, or date of publication in the in-text citation. Instead, refer to the source with a number in a square bracket, e.g. [1], that will then correspond to the full citation in your reference list.
Examples of in-text citations:
The Reference List appears at the end of your paper and provides the full citations for all the references you have used. List all references numerically in the order they’ve been cited within the paper, and include the bracketed number at the beginning of each reference.

Policy on Plagiarism and Duplicate Publication
December 2021
The IN4OBE offers professional summits, networking opportunities, and research support in the various fields of outcomes-based education research and technologies. IN4OBE subscribes to the highest standards of ethical conduct, as detailed in the IN4OBE website.
In the scholarly publication, plagiarism occurs when an author copies the words, illustrations, and ideas without identifying the sources. Plagiarism is unethical because it represents the theft of the intellectual work of others and the subsequent misrepresentation of that work as the author’s own. An act of plagiarism not only violates intellectual property rights but is anathema to the principle of academic integrity, which is fundamental for scholarly research, writing, and publication. Accidental publication of plagiarized material can undermine the quality of a journal or proceedings.
When authors copy not from others but themselves by publishing the same article in multiple journals, the practice is called redundant or duplicate publication. Compared with plagiarism, the duplicate publication is generally considered less severe, but it is still unethical. (The only exception is when reprinting has been appropriately approved and permission obtained from the original copyright holder; e.g., a keynote speech that has also been published.) Duplicate publication of the same article wastes space in journals and reviewers’ time. Duplicate publication misrepresents the author’s record of scholarly contributions, and it corrupts meta-analyses of multiple studies on the same subject.
This policy outlines the steps that IN4OBE will take in response to allegations of plagiarism and duplicate publication involving articles published in or submitted to IN4OBE summit proceedings.
IN4OBE requires authors to transfer their copyright to IN4OBE at manuscript submission, thereby giving IN4OBE the ability to:
(a) Protect the published content against various forms of misuse and abuse
(b) Safeguard the authors’ interests
However, for many authors, their institutions and funding agencies today want to make their research results more readily available to all readers. In recognizing these interests, IN4OBE is committed to helping authors gain the broadest exposure for their research by offering fully open access journals using the Creative Commons Attribution, NonCommercial, No Derivatives (CCBY-NC-ND).
Authors are required to submit a signed copyright transfer agreement with IN4OBE after acceptance of their paper and paying the publication fees.
