Submission of the final manuscript

The final manuscript, drafted and typed in accordance with technical guidelines for presentation is submitted to a small working group, composed of all or part of the Textbook Committee, for reading and evaluation. A teacher or an inspector specialised in the field in question and a curriculum development specialist join in this evaluation. After examination of the manuscript, the author receives comments, conclusions and recommendations of the evaluators and will then make any necessary corrections or revisions to his manuscript. Sometimes there are very few corrections to make, but in all likelihood the author will discover flaws in presentation, difficulties of comprehension in the text and other similar shortcomings which require slight modification. Discussions with the evaluators can provide him with additional information regarding improvements to the text.
