Overview of Publishing Workflow

Publishing Workflow

Our publishing workflow moves through eight phases: Proposal, Submission, Initial Edit, First Revision, Open Peer Review, Second Revision, Sustainability + Accessibility, and Publication. The development of both original and translated lessons is supported by the professional services of our publishing team, guided by our managing editors, with the expertise of a cohort of volunteer editors from our project team.
