Don't Be Reviewer 2: Reviewing for Journal and Conferences

Workshop/Training

Peer review is high stakes work; reviewer feedback influences (often determines) whether manuscripts are published, and for many academics, keeping their job depends on publishing their scholarship. In other words, peer reviews have material, professional consequences. It’s surprising, then, that scholars are rarely trained in how to be a good reviewer. In this workshop, you’ll learn a practical heuristic for providing peer review feedback that is inclusive, helpful, and appropriate.
