Peer+Review+Process

=Peer Review Process=

This page contains information on how to use the online peer review application at GeorgiaStandards.org.

**Using the Peer Review Application……** Sharon created 3 video tutorials on the system and the links to these are given below. The tutorials show us:

1) [|How to Log In] 2) [|How to Submit Work] 3) [|How to Peer Review]

 Please watch the Jing videos closely and pay special attention to how the files need to be named. Please make sure to use the following naming convention for the file name: ElemELA_GradeX_(current date)_(submitter initials).xlsx e.g., ElemELA_GradeK-2_041011_MAS.xlsx  If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call Sharon or myself. The peer review rubric is attached below for reference.



This is the link to get you to the peer review.

The peer reviewer will receive notification in an email when the submission is uploaded and waiting for them to begin. Because this application is so new, we need to watch the workflow carefully:
 * We expect the system to send an automated email to let the peer reviewer know a submission was made and that they need to review
 * The person submitting the work also needs to send an email to the reviewer saying the work was submitted
 * If it takes more than an hour to receive the automated email notice, the peer reviewer should inform Sharon via email so that she can get the developers to find the problem
 * The reviewer should then access the work via the GeorgiaStandards.org web page and continue to review
 * Also, please help look for errors like spelling or grammar as you go through the system, and let Sharon know

If team members have completed 2 domain assignments, they can upload both. It is important to make two separate uploads, one for each worksheet.

Attached is a spreadsheet which contains the peer review assignments and the content experts assigned for the various grade levels. Make sure you identify who you should select as your peer reviewer. Also the peer reviewers need to know who they should select as the content expert. All of this information is on the spreadsheet. 

**Rejected Work.........**

If your work is rejected, see the workflow below:
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">The peer reviewer is required to give an explanation in the comments section for each 'No' response and why the work was rejected
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">The application should send an automatic email to the submitter confirming the work was rejected
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">The reviewer should also send an email to the submitter to let her know the work was rejected, so that the submitter knows the work needs correction
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">The submitter will correct the work, change the date on the file name, and upload the corrected worksheet
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">Again, please make sure to send an email to the reviewer to let her know the corrected work was uploaded
