REQUIREMENTS OF THE EDITORIAL BOARD FOR THE CONTENT AND STRUCTURE OF ARTICLES

In the Journal, in the context of «Scientific novelty is knowledge that is substantive, new, and previously unknown in the scientific space», materials of the following types are published: Research Article, Scientific-Methodological Article, Scientific-Organizational Article, Short Communication, Feature Article of the Journal Issue, sections «Memory», «Review of Educational and Scientific Publications», and «Information Analytics».

The length of research articles ranges from 8 to 16 pages, the length of a short communication ranges from 5 to 7 pages, and the length of sections ranges from 2 to 5 pages. The calculation of the length of all three types of articles and the Short Communication does not include the abstract, keywords, the reference list in the original language and in English, or information about the author(s) in Kazakh, Russian, and English. Scientific articles exceeding the specified length are accepted for publication in exceptional cases by a special decision of the Journal’s Editorial Board.

  1. Research articles, in terms of structure, must represent a completed study with a detailed formulation of the problem posed, a full justification of the necessity of the research objective in the context of the development of the field, and a clear formulation of the obtained result (the consideration and completeness of these requirements are determined by the reviewers and the Editorial Board of the Journal). Separately or in combination, they must contain the following information:
  • Necessary notation and definitions to ensure understanding of the text of the article,
  • Formulation of the problem to which the article is devoted,
  • Historical information on the formulation of the problem with corresponding full references in connection with the subject of the article – who and when obtained the results preceding the topic of the article,
  • Justification of the relevance either as a problem new to the field under study or necessary for its further development, which constitutes the task of the article as the most important part of any scientific work,
  • Precise formulation and description of the solution to the posed problem presented in the article,
  • Detailed justification of the novelty of the result(s) of the article as new, previously unknown, and substantive in the context of what was known earlier,
  • The solution of the problem presented in the article must be supplied with complete and detailed proofs,
  • Conceptual model of the research subject – a structured scheme of key components (primary attention is given to results of a final character both within a specific specialization and of fundamental significance).

If at least one of these requirements is not satisfied, the article is not accepted for consideration.

  1. Short Communication. The requirements for a Short Communication are the same as for a Research Article, except that detailed proofs may be replaced by an outline of the proof.
  2. Scientific-Methodological Article. The Journal publishes scientific-methodological articles of direct practical application with methodological significance and novelty, presenting new methods, tools, forms, approaches, principles, and foundations for the presentation and transmission of knowledge in all areas of the specialties Mathematics, Computer Science, and Mechanics. Scientific-methodological articles must represent a completed study devoted to the presentation of a specific curriculum topic, an entire field, or a subject discipline, with a detailed formulation of the methodological problem posed, a full justification of the necessity of the research objective in the context of the development of the subject discipline against the general background of requirements of systematicity, precision of terminology, clear exposition of theoretical components, logical coherence and structure, accessibility and clarity in the presentation and transmission of knowledge (the consideration and completeness of these requirements are determined by the reviewers and the Editorial Board of the Journal). Separately or in combination, they must contain the following information:
  • Conceptual model of the subject of research – a structured scheme of key components for the creation of a complete set of school textbooks in Mathematics aimed at the ultimate goal «Mathematical maturity», the elevation of university courses to the level ensuring «Understanding», and the foundational preparation for mastering the diverse «Variable component»,
  • Clear formulation of the methodological problem – a fundamental uncertainty or contradiction requiring resolution,
  • Justification of the necessity and relevance of the methodological problem under development,
  • Solution of the methodological problem and its principal novelty in the context of previously known methodologies.
  1. Scientific-Organizational Article. The Journal publishes scientific and organizational proposals aimed at activating large-scale scientific and methodological activities:
  • scientific conferences in the context of effectiveness,
  • grant funding with corresponding competitive documentation and expert evaluation,
  • textbooks and curricula for the school mathematics course with the final goal of achieving «Mathematical maturity»,
  • educational programs for Master’s and PhD studies with the intermediate goal of achieving «Understanding mathematics»,
  • scientific programs for Master’s and PhD studies aimed at integrating students of all levels into international science,
  • expert evaluation and requirements for experts of various appointments: for scientific evaluation only specialists with Fundamental results are involved, exceptionally those with Significant results; for methodological evaluation, at least three results of direct practical application with theoretical preparation in the subject area are required,
  • awarding academic degrees with corresponding documentation and evaluation: only specialists with Fundamental results are involved in awarding academic degrees, exceptionally those with Significant results,
  • awarding academic titles with corresponding documentation and evaluation: the title of professor requires the mandatory presence of a Fundamental result, associate professor and docent require a Significant result,
  • peer review of textbooks and monographs with corresponding documentation: for reviewing textbooks, specialists with at least five results of direct practical application and with theoretical preparation in the subject area close to the topic of the textbook are involved; for monographs, specialists with Fundamental results in areas close to the topic of the monograph are involved,
  • documentation of scientific-research and scientific-methodological reporting and control, where every reporting and контроль document in science must contain explicit formulations of scientific novelty with full justification against the state of the Topic and the Field in the international scientific space at that time,
  • training of scientific personnel with corresponding reporting and control documentation,
  • journal scientific-research, scientific-methodological, and scientific-organizational policy: a scientific journal must include topics of Master’s and PhD dissertations, promote scientific research at the international level for Kazakhstan, and be free from scientific errors and from the absence of meaningful and effective results.
  1. The «Feature Article of the Journal Issue» is devoted to a specific topic or field based on Fundamental results, with continuations aimed at development in Kazakhstan and integration into the international scientific space, without any restrictions on the format or length of presentation.
  2. The section «Review of Educational and Scientific Publications» is devoted to the scientific and methodological analysis of textbooks and monographs.
  3. The section «Memory» is devoted to the legacy of prominent representatives of the scientific community in the journal’s fields.
  4. The section «Information Analytics» is devoted to significant scientific events—conferences and seminars, scientific collaborations with global research centers, off-site scientific-research and scientific-methodological seminars in national and regional universities and secondary schools of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and presentations of national projects in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Mechanics.

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ARTICLE FORMATTING   

The Editorial Office asks authors to familiarize themselves with the guidelines and adhere to them when preparing manuscripts submitted to the Journal. Non-compliance with the established rules does not allow the article to proceed to further consideration.
