The growth of publications on educational sciences increases the concern of scientific community about the quality of these publications. This quality depends on a number of factors: topicality of the investigated problem, the degree of originality of results, the multitude of possible research perspectives pointed in the publication. There is, however, another factor which though referring to the formal aspect is extremely important. This is observing the rules of editing and presenting a scientific publication. The aim of the article is to evoke some principles and rules which should be followed while editing a scientific article. The basic principle consists in observing a structure that requires certain points: Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Related Work, Research Methodology, Quantitative and qualitative results, Interpretations of results, Conclusions and Further Work, Acknowledgements (optional), References, Appendices (optional). The article contains a standard description of each part and offers some instructions referring to the style of the scientific article and to the editing technology based on the requirements to a scientific text and the author’s own experience. The originality of the article consists in the development of a Check List which allows the authors to check the presence of standard elements in each part of the article.
