Submit a Manuscript or Proposal

Welcome to the Education's Digest platform for submission of a manuscript or proposal for content.
The Education’s Digest is a periodical publication of the IEEE Portuguese Education Society Chapter whose goal is to help and promote discussions on the topic of Education in Engineering. The first edition of this publication was issued in September 2024, and following the success of the last issue in September 2025, we are looking to the community to help shape its future.

While we value our invited articles, a true community publication cannot rely solely on the initiative of the Portuguese Education Chapter. To elevate and encourage best practices in engineering education, the editorial team invites you to contribute to a future edition.

We are looking for content that is current, innovative, and maintains a serious record in science and engineering. The scope of this publication is wide within the scope of the relation between Engineering and Education. We invite submissions in the following categories:

- Opinion pieces
- Column proposals
- Scientific article summaries
- Other relevant proposals

To get the template, please download it from the IEEE Template Selector, by choosing "Magazine" type, and then "Computer".

Language

The Education’s Digest is a bilingual publication, written in both Portuguese and English. When submitting, the authors could either choose to present their manuscript/proposals in Portuguese or English (or both). The editing team will be responsible for creating a translated version of the uploaded manuscript.
