CTL: SoTL - Peer Review 101

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.

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.
