About the workshop

Effective reviewers learn from the review process and, as a result, can see how to improve their own publications. Good reviewers are also recognized by the community and are often offered opportunities that enhance their academic profile, including journal editorial positions and conference track positions.



Workshop attendees will:

* develop an understanding of the life cycle of a review from a journal's perspective by following a paper through the review process;

* recognize the range of ethical issues that can be faced by reviewers;

* appreciate how reviews can help develop papers at different stages of the review process; and

* understand the differences in review process across journals.
