“Peer Review and Digital Projects”

Perspectives from Ruth Stone, Margaret Dolinsky, and Daniel Reed

Thursday, February 10, 2011

12-1pm; IDAH Conference Room E170D

How can digital projects be peer reviewed? Will digital projects count toward tenure and promotion? How do I get my colleagues to take digital projects seriously as research and creative activity? Are departments and colleges changing their views on digital projects?  What are the best kinds of digital projects for peer review? This panel will share their experiences with digital projects and the peer review process.  Using examples from their work they will also describe how they’ve navigated this landscape in the academy.
