Publish not Perish: Understanding Peer Review for Scholarly Publishing

Why is the peer review process the way it is, and what exactly happens between submission and acceptance of a publication? This workshop will deconstruct peer review by outlining disciplinary practices, different types of review, and how to respond to reviewer comments, as well as interrogating the merits and drawbacks of closed door vs. open and transparent approaches. After this workshop you’ll have the knowledge you need to start hacking peer review.
