Articles for the MUST EDUCATOR must be sent only and exclusively through the following link: https://app.pipefy.com/public/form/0R7pPGhr
MUST UNIVERSITY JOURNALS have an automated process, which begins with the delivery of articles through Pipefy, with a widely disseminated link, for this purpose. Items sent via email will not be accepted. Items that are not submitted through the Pipefy link will not go through evaluation.
The Pipefy links, as well as the submission period, for each journal will be widely disseminated, with an email forwarded by the Publications Committee to ALL teachers and the same information transmitted to the course coordinators.
The publications committee email is available for questions only.
The article must come without identification and within the TEMPLATE created for this purpose, accompanied by the Author Identification Form and the Statement of Revision and Grammatical Correction.
The article must comply with the standards of the Journal, reported in this document.
Posts must follow the previously published schedule.
Proposals may be submitted by faculty members and graduate students at MUST UNIVERSITY, provided they have successfully completed their A-rated Final Examination of Completion (TCF) and received approval from the examination committee. Additionally, presentations are welcomed from professors and students enrolled in Stricto Sensu programs at partner universities.
Documents sent outside the period of receipt of the articles, nor those that are not sent by the Pipefy system, will NOT be accepted.
Articles submitted to MUST REVIEWS and MUST EDUCATOR will be blindly reviewed (without identification) by the Editorial Board of the MUST UNIVERSITY Publications Committee.
Each article will be reviewed by the Editorial Board, presented by the courses and approved by the MUST UNIVERSITY Publications Committee. MUST UNIVERSITY journals reserve the right to publish or not publish an article submitted for this purpose.
The selection process for the publication follows some guidelines, considering whether its content contributes to the academic and professional communities, as well as whether there is creativity regarding the topic and the theoretical-methodological conduct, to go beyond conventional approaches.
If the Editorial Board suggests modifications in the structure or content of the articles presented, they will be returned to the authors so that they can make the indicated changes. Thus, after the blind review process and the article with the opinion with the recommendation of “publication with revisions”, the authors will have a period of 5 days to resubmit the corrected version. If the corrections are not considered according to the opinion and/or the revised article is not published within 5 days, the article will be rejected and will not advance to the other editorial phases.
Non-identification of authors is a mandatory condition for the blind review procedure.
For proper indication of the credit of the authors of the article, each must correctly submit: full name, title, institutional affiliation, and email address. Each article can have a maximum of three authors, and one of them must have the title of Doctor.
The submission of manuscripts and other works implies the assignment of copyright to journals, if accepted for publication. If approved, authors must complete the Term of Authorization and Reproduction/Publication of the Work and Assignment of Patrimonial Rights, which will be sent later by the Publications Committee. The absence of the term excludes the article from the MUST Review scientific repository. The authorization period will be sent to the authors AFTER the approval of the article for publication.
Articles must be a minimum of 15 and a maximum of 20 pages (including references).

Example: Source: Silva, 2012, p. 24 (note: NO parentheses); b) when adapted from the bibliographic reference. Example: Source: Adapted from Silva, 2012, p. 24; c) when prepared by the author, based on bibliographic reference: Source: Prepared by the author, based on Silva, 2012. Note: In this case, the page indication is optional. If the author’s adaptation was based on another illustration or on specific content by the cited author, the page is indicated. If it was a general adaptation, of a chapter or part of the work, it is not necessary to indicate the page and d) when it is prepared by the author: Source: Prepared by the author. (Note that you don’t need to indicate the year.)
