Improving Prospective Authors’ Writing and Publication Quality Through Publication-Based Training Framework

Abstract

To achieve high quality publication is the ultimate aim and objective of every scholarly journal. This paper explains the implementation of international virtual writing camp as the alternative approach offered by the editorial boards of journals to improve the quality of prospective authors during the physicaldistancing era where a face-to-face meeting is impractical during the current Sars-Cov-2 pandemic. A virtual comprehensive training was specified to provide those who are interested in sending their manuscript to the journals yet have minimum insight and proficiency to compose what-so-called high quality paper. This approach was conducted in nine phases and took three months, approximately. By the end of the camp, the participants were expected to compose one or more papers that were ready to be sent and submitted.
