Resumen de Editorial Strengthening the Open Character in Spanish/Portuguese of IEEE-RITA
Martín Llamas Nistal, Manuel Castro, María Luisa Carrió Pastor
IEEE-RITA was launched in 2006 with a clear vocation to facilitate the publication in Spanish and Portuguese of quality papers on the subject of learning technologies, mainly attending the Ibero-American community. In 2013 a new stage was opened 1 where IEEE-RITA becomes an official publication of the IEEE, publishing in English through the IEEE Xplore [item 1) in the Appendix], but maintaining its Ibero-American vocation of using the Spanish and Portuguese as working languages. Thus, authors can send manuscripts in English and Portuguese to be technically revised in these languages. Once accepted, they are published online (as an open access journal) in the original language (Spanish or Portuguese) through VAEP-RITA (IEEE-RITA Open access journal in Spanish or Portuguese) [item 2) in the Appendix]. They are then translated into English and revised to have the best English versions of the original manuscripts in Spanish or Portuguese. Once accepted, these English papers are also published online in IEEE Xplore and are accessible only to their subscribers.
