Information For Authors

Open Access Statement

DiSlaw (Didaktik slawischer Sprachen) is an international open access online journal that follows the Open Access Policy of the University of Innsbruck. The articles published in DiSlaw are therefore freely accessible and available, as the founders of the journal are convinced that free access to knowledge does not only serve the progress of scientific research, but is also conducive to continuous exchange with in-service teachers. The journal therefore does not charge any fees for the publication of the articles or for their access.

Information for authors

As part of the submission procedure, authors are requested to consider the following requirements and to confirm them by submitting their contributions and signing the author agreement. In case of non-compliance, the contributions cannot be accepted.

1) General remarks

The contribution is yet unpublished and has not been submitted for publication to any other journal, anthology, etc. (otherwise, the editors have to be informed of this at the time of submission). Please note that you may continue to freely exploit your contribution after it has been accepted by and published in DiSlaw, as long as you refer to its initial publication in DiSlaw.

2) Abstracts

4) Ensuring a Double-Blind-Peer-Review

The abstracts and contributions each undergo a "double-blind" peer review process. Any references to the identity of the authors are removed by the editors and replaced, for example, by author 1.

5) Style & Formatting
