Buckingham Linguatech Journal (ISSN 3121-2700) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access scientific journal published by Buckingham English Center, Ecuador. It provides a specialized academic space for the dissemination, discussion and advancement of knowledge at the intersection of language, education, technology and innovation.

The journal aims to disseminate original and methodologically rigorous research that contributes to the understanding, development and transformation of language teaching and learning processes, with particular emphasis on English language education and its relationship with contemporary educational, technological, social and intercultural environments.

Linguatech seeks to connect scientific evidence with educational practice and technological development, promoting dialogue among researchers, academics, teachers, language specialists and professionals whose work contributes to linguistic education, applied research and innovation.

The journal particularly encourages interdisciplinary research that establishes meaningful connections between theory, empirical evidence, pedagogical practice, technological development and the social and cultural contexts in which languages are taught, learned, assessed and used.

All manuscripts submitted to Buckingham Linguatech Journal undergo an initial editorial assessment to determine their correspondence with the journal's aims and scope and their compliance with the scientific, methodological, ethical and formal requirements established for publication.

During this preliminary stage, the Editorial Team evaluates the relevance and originality of the contribution, the coherence of the research problem and objectives, methodological consistency, quality of the academic sources, presentation of results, compliance with submission requirements and the general suitability of the manuscript for the journal.

Manuscripts that successfully complete the editorial screening are sent for peer review. Reviewers assess the scientific contribution, methodological rigor, theoretical consistency, relevance, clarity and contribution of the manuscript to its field of knowledge.

Based on the reviewers' reports and the editorial assessment, the Editorial Team determines whether a manuscript is accepted, requires revisions, must undergo further evaluation or is rejected.

When modifications are requested, authors must respond to the observations received and submit a revised version. Once a manuscript has been accepted, it enters the scientific editing, copyediting, metadata normalization, layout and proofreading stages prior to publication.

Editorial decisions are based on the scientific quality, relevance, originality and methodological consistency of each contribution.
