What Makes a Good Title? The title and abstract are the most visible parts of your article. "We would typically expect a strong title, a good title that really expressed what the article was about and made it clear to the reader exactly what the topic was, and it's amazing how often writers neglect to do that.” Professor Mark Brundrett, Editor of Education

Abstract Mirror of your research words Spend good time for Abstract Key word

What Makes a Good Abstract? “A good abstract will tell you what the key issue that’s addressed is, it’ll give you an idea of the methods that have been used and the conclusions that have been arrived at. So that abstract ought to tell someone whether it’s worth them spending part of their life reading this paper. If the abstract doesn’t do that the chances are the paper will have further weaknesses.” Professor David Gillborn, Editor, Race, Ethnicity and Education

Top Ten Reasons for Rejection 1Out of scope 2Not an true academic article 3Too long/too short 4Disregard for writing conventions 5Poor style, grammar, punctuation or English 6No contribution to the subject 7Not contextualised interest 8Poor theoretical framework/lacks references 9Scrappily presented and sloppily proofread 10Libellous, unethical, rude 38

What to Do if Your Paper is Rejected? Do nothing for a few days: calm down! It’s not usually worth getting into a discussion with the Editor about the reviewers, it won’t alter the decision. Use the reviewers’ comments, alter the paper and submit to another journal. If you do submit elsewhere, take care to alter your paper to the new style of that journal. Editors can easily detect a paper that was submitted to a rival publication. If asked to make heavy amendments and resubmit, you must decide if it is worthwhile. Remember, you may get rejected again! It may be better to go elsewhere. 39
