Reimagining Peer Review
Channel: Blended Learning in the Liberal Arts
Date: 04/06/2018

Traditional ways of thinking about peer review have involved peer-to-peer interaction among students reading and responding to each other’s work as part of the teaching of writing. I propose we can leverage the model of peer review that is essential to our scholarship in our disciplines to transform students into our peers through collaborative work in the digital context. Through an experiential learning project involving collaborative research and writing in a digital space, combined with peer review and scholarly communication using WordPress, the students and the faculty member work together to generate and share new knowledge as peers beyond the walls of the classroom.
