About the Journal

Open access policy

This journal provides immediate free access to its content under the principle of making research freely available to the public, which encourages greater global knowledge exchange.

Focus and scope

Dialogica aims to publicise scientific research that has originated in the field of education and that can bring about far-reaching changes in the world.

Mission

As a multidisciplinary journal, it provides the opportunity for researchers and professionals from various fields of knowledge, from the community of the Universidad Pedagógica Experimental Libertador and/or other universities and national and international scientific institutions, to share their findings through this informative medium.

In Dialogica you can submit articles related to completed research, or research in progress, free work and research, technological development reports, scientific essays, literature reviews, promotion work, institutional projects, proposals for educational models and innovations and book reviews.

Objectives

  1. To disseminate research and/or free works carried out by researchers in any of the areas of knowledge.
  2. To promote the exchange of information in the areas of interest of the journal, so that the dissemination of research, studies and free works carried out by teachers of the different nuclei, centres and / or lines of research of the institute and other national and international educational institutions, as well as texts of free researchers is contemplated.
  3. To offer the community updated and quality information that increases the bibliographic material for consultation and use in future research.
  4. To integrate the functions of research, teaching and extension, through the publication and dissemination of works carried out by researchers from the community within and outside the university.

History of the Journal

Dialogic is intended to disseminate updated information generated within the centres, nuclei and lines of research, as well as free teaching and research work in different areas of knowledge.

It was born in 2004, thanks to the initiative of a group of researchers and collaborators from our university. With the passing of time, Dialogica has undergone various evaluations, which have led to changes in its initial design and administrative aspects. Also, with the desire to leave the national context and to make it accessible to everyone, Dialogica went digital with the publication of volume 9 in 2012.

Dialogica is registered and indexed in the directories, databases, catalogues and repositories mentioned here.

Journal practices regarding compliance with ethical standards by authors, editors and referees

All reviews in Dialogic, Multidisciplinary Journal, use the internationally standardized “double-blind” peer evaluation system that guarantees the anonymity of the manuscripts. In addition, Dialogic uses evaluators external to the publishing institution of the magazine.

  • Knowledge and academic experience on the topic of the manuscript. Show evidence of your skills in the specific topic of the article.
  • Temporary availability. Responsibility and commitment in the review and delivery within the times established for it.
  • Conflict of interests. In the event that, by some means, the authorship of the manuscript is identified, and there is excessive academic or family closeness to its authors, membership in the same University, Department, Research Group, Thematic Network, Research Projects, joint publications with the authors... or any other, the reviewer must declare to Dialogic (editor-in-chief) that there are conflicts of interest.
  • Confidentiality commitment. The Reviewer of the article expressly undertakes to carry out the evaluation in complete confidentiality, so that it cannot, throughout the process, be disclosed to a third party.

All authors are required to:

  • Declare the absence of conflicts of interest that have influenced the results obtained or the proposed interpretations.
  • Indicate the financing of agencies and/or projects from which the research article arises.
