About the Symposium
Dear Scientists,
Ankara Hacı Bayram Veli University will host The 18th International Symposium of the Educational Community, which will be held this year within the framework of Saybilder Symposium Days. The symposium will be held on 08-11 October 2024 at the 100th Anniversary Cultural Center of Ankara Hacı Bayram Veli University and will be held with the academic support of national and foreign institutions such as Mardin Artuklu University (Turkey), ISTEUB (University of Carthage – Tunisia).
The announcement of The 18th International Symposium of the Educational Community has been sent by e-mail to academics in 15 different countries, in addition to the information on the public website.
In order to give an international dimension to the scientific discussion and interaction environment related to education, expert speakers from 6 different countries have been invited to this Symposium. Therefore, we would like to invite all academics and researchers interested education to share their knowledge, ideas and experiences in the symposium area.
It is possible to participate in the symposium with an oral presentation, but it is also possible to participate only as a listener. The abstracts of oral participants will be included in the programme with the approval of two referees and the Organising Committee. These abstracts will then be published in a book with ISBN according to the symposium calendar.
Presentations at the symposium will be both face-to-face and online. It is very important for the scientists who send their abstracts to indicate the type of presentation in order to prepare the programme functionally.
It is very valuable for scientists who cannot attend the symposium as an oral presentation or as a listener to take part in the evaluation board and to act as a referee to evaluate the abstracts sent to be presented. For this reason, scientists who cannot be reached by the organising committee are expected to apply for refereeing by sending their CVs to the communication channels of the symposium.
The similarity rate in abstracts submitted for presentation at the symposium and in full papers prepared for publication must not exceed 20%. All texts will be checked using plagiarism detection software (Turnitin or iThenticate). Manuscripts with a similarity rate exceeding 20% will be directly returned to the author, and the review process will not be initiated.
The 18th International Symposium of the Educational Community will be published in a book with ISBN. However, researchers are not obliged to send their full texts.
The symposium is prepared by taking into consideration the academic appointment and promotion criteria of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Gulf Countries, Iraq and Turkey. In order for the symposium to be successful, we invite you to contribute as a referee, researcher or listener; to share our announcements with those around you in order to raise awareness on education issues and to provide information on these issues.
Best regards,
Organising Committee

Terms of Participation
1. The online
participation fee for the symposium is 1000 TL. The registration fee for
in-person presentations is 290 Euros. This fee includes a three-day
all-inclusive accommodation and excursion program.
2. Regardless of
the number of authors, only one of the authors listed in the paper needs to pay
the registration fee.
3. Participation
certificates will be issued to all authors included in the paper.
4. Participants
must comply with the symposium participation guidelines and the final
application deadlines.
5. Participation
in the symposium is only possible through oral presentations.
6. All abstracts
and full papers submitted to the symposium will be accepted upon the approval
of the referees and the evaluation committee. Papers that do not receive
approval from at least two referees will be rejected.
7. The acceptance
and rejection process of the texts submitted for oral presentation goes through
the following stages: Submission and Initial Check, Referee Assignment and
Evaluation Process, Decision by the Editorial Board, Final Evaluation, and
Preparation of the Invitation Letter.
o
Submission and Initial Check: Authors submit
their presentations to the symposium’s online system or via email. The
secretary (assistant editor) checks the presentation for relevance to the symposium’s
scope, adherence to basic writing rules, and similarity percentage. If the
paper is deemed unsuitable at this stage, it may be rejected or revisions may
be requested. The secretary (assistant editor) does not conduct a content
review, only a formal evaluation.
o
Referee Assignment and Evaluation Process: The
paper is sent to two referees who are experts in the field. The referees
evaluate the scientific content, methodology, reliability of the results, and
contribution to the literature. They prepare a report based on their review.
During this process, the authors and referees remain anonymous to each other.
o
Decision by the Editorial Board President: The
editor of the symposium is the President of the Editorial Board. Based on the
referee reports, the editor makes a decision on the acceptance, revision
request (minor or major), or rejection of the paper.
o
Revision and Resubmission: If a revision is
requested, authors revise their paper by responding to the referees’ comments.
If major corrections have been made, the revised paper is sent back to the
referees for further evaluation. Minor corrections do not require another
referee process; the editor’s control is sufficient for acceptance.
o
Final Evaluation and Preparation of the
Invitation Letter: After the revision process, the President of the Editorial
Board (editor) evaluates the corrections made. Once the paper meets all the
criteria, an acceptance and invitation letter are issued to the authors.
8. Preparation of
the Program and Publication Process: The accepted paper is shared with the
Editorial Board Members responsible for preparing the symposium program and
publishing the abstract books. The Editorial Board Member responsible for the
program schedules an appropriate time slot and hall for the presentation. The
Editorial Board Member responsible for publication handles the typesetting of
the text and places it in the appropriate section.
9. Researchers may
submit their full papers until the final deadline specified in the symposium
schedule. Full papers will be published as an electronic book with an ISBN. The
symposium is organized in compliance with scientific ethics and publication
principles.
10. Every stage of
the symposium process is conducted with great care for scientific procedures
and personal rights. From the submission of abstracts to the publication of
full papers, participants’ objections or requests are given the utmost
attention. Participants should clearly express their objections via email to
the symposium secretariat. The secretariat then shares the received emails with
the head of the organizing committee. If an error has been made by the symposium,
it is immediately corrected by the head of the organizing committee. Scientific
errors, on the other hand, are reviewed by experts, and the organizing
committee makes decisions based on their recommendations. No scientific process
can be bypassed, and no participant can be treated unfairly.
11. The symposium
is conducted in accordance with international scientific ethics and publication
principles. To ensure compliance with these principles, at least one professor
officially appointed by partner universities supervises the process. All
participants and organizers of the symposium are obliged to adhere to
international scientific ethics and publication principles. Authors are
individually responsible for any unethical conduct identified during or after
the symposium.
