  1. The theoretical background contains previous theories as the basis of research and the temporary hypothesis. The theory can be in the form of scientific articles, articles in journals, textbooks, or other sources of scientific writing.

 

 
  1. In the context of community engagement, the theory that should be used primarily is the theory related to community engagement, community development, or community services. Other theories that are still needed to solve the problem of research to support theories that are delivered after the theory of community engagement are discussed.

 

 

 

 
  1. After the theories are mentioned and discussed, you need to form a problem that shows why this manuscript is important, existing gaps, previous research, and you must write the purpose of the manuscript.

 

 
  1. Example of the existing gaps and previous research statement is at the end of the Introduction section (after theories are mentioned and discussed): "........ (summary of background)....... A previous research explained on...... This research is limited on........ Indeed, this research intends to................. The purpose of this research that related to community engagement is ........."

 

 
  1. The introduction part is already shows that this research is based on community engagement and/or community development

 

 

 

 

 
  1. Every table and pictures need explanation e.g. table 1 shows that… or regarding to picture 1, it shows that…

4.      The method of your manuscript also mentions the detail of your community engagement program

 

 

5.      Are the methods proven the hypothesis?

 

 

6.      Are the methods already explained clearly?

 

 

 

DISCUSSION & RESULTS

1.      The discussion is presented systematically from general, then leads to the specific

 

 

2.       The presentation of the research can be done with the help of tables, drawings/graphs, maps/plans, and schemes (the table is editable not in image format). All tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals, and these tables can be edit and not as images

 

 

3.      The result and discussion of your manuscript also interconnected with the theory as well as the novelty of your manuscript about community engagement

 

 

4.      The results and discussion part should also describe the implication of this community engagement program to the community.

 

 

5.      The minimum of your explanation in this chapter ranges from 40% to 50% of your manuscript.
