Access and Reuse Policies

At Pedagogical Constellations, we are committed to the free dissemination of academic knowledge, promoting open access as a fundamental principle. Our goal is to ensure that the results of published research are accessible to the entire academic community and the general public, without economic or subscription barriers.

Open Access

All articles published in our journal are freely available from the moment of publication through our online platform. This open-access model allows any user to read, download, copy, distribute, print, and use the content for academic and educational purposes, as long as copyright is respected and proper attribution is given to the authors.

Reuse License

The journal operates under the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC BY), which allows:

  • Free use and distribution: Users can share and redistribute articles in any format or medium.
  • Content adaptation: The creation of derivative works, including translations and modifications, is permitted as long as proper credit is given to the original author.
  • Mandatory attribution: Any use of the content must include clear acknowledgment of the work's authorship and its original source in Pedagogical Constellations.

Benefits of Open Access

  • Encourages global academic collaboration and exchange.
  • Increases the visibility and impact of published articles.
  • Removes economic and geographical barriers, promoting equity in access to knowledge.

By adhering to the open-access and reuse model, we reaffirm our commitment to the democratization of knowledge, fostering the creation of a more inclusive, collaborative, and transparent academic community. We invite authors, readers, and professionals to take advantage of these policies to enrich dialogue and interdisciplinary research in education.
