On December 13th, join us for an open house to celebrate the launch of BuildingF (formerly the AdCentre), a new home for creative and business collaboration at Humber’s School of Media Studies. Specializing in communications, BuildingF brings marketers and agencies together with advanced students from virtually any Humber program, to produce strategic creative content and technology solutions. BuildingF brings crowd-sourced creative to your business, while you help Humber create more powerful educational experiences for our students.

Whatever your communications need - a content management strategy, a rebranding, web design, social campaign, PR plan – we can bring you the ideas and in many cases produce the final content or application. And with the variety of programs at Humber College, the number of disciplines that can be applied to your project is virtually limitless. Plus you’ll get first-hand experience working with our very best students, before they’ve graduated – an incredible recruitment opportunity.

BuildingF- Creative thinking, creative solutions and creative talent

The peer review process - in which experts critically assess manuscripts under consideration for publication in a scholarly journal - is critical to upholding the academic rigour and self-correcting nature of scholarship. More than just critically responding to a paper, there is an art to crafting a review that is constructive and rigourous, while also being reasonable and collegial. In this session, we will walk through the process of reviewing a scholarly paper with practical tips and suggestions for both novice and seasoned reviewers.
