The peer review process for translations into other languages will be coordinated in the same way as for translations into Spanish. Information on script or outline preparation and peer review is available to all interested DANR staff. The basic steps for submittal, peer review, and production of slide sets and slide-tape sets are listed below. The AE has the option of refocusing the idea. The AE or a Communication Services staff member provides the client with an Instructional Program Development Plan to help the client shape the project.
Early scheduling is especially important for seasonal subjects.
The AE works with the client to ensure that the reviewers' comments and suggestions are incorporated. The AE decides about programmatic acceptance of the outline or script. If the slide set will recommend pesticide use, the outline or script is sent to the Statewide Pesticide Coordinator for approval. The AE sends the approved outline or script and its MF-21V submittal form to Communication Services so that production can begin. Communication Services assigns a DANR reference number to the slide set.
