Peer Review Case Studies
Below you will find a selection of our Peer Review case studies. These case studies are developed in partnership with the peer reviewers through a process of interview and written documentation. The words of the peer reviewers are given the highest priority to maximise authenticity and perpetuate the reflective dialogue that underpins the peer review of teaching process.
The case studies are summarised here, but you can download the case studies as a PDF.
If you would like to engage in peer review of teaching, please visit the Peer Review with a Buddy(opens in a new window) webpage. You may wish to peruse these case studies for inspiration or ideas before you submit a Peer Review Buddies registration form.
More case studies will be added as we develop them. If you would like to develop your own case study with us, please visit the Peer Review Buddies page.
These case studies, along with other Peer Review initiatives, are supported by the 21C Project(opens in a new window).
