    Peer Reviewer Course:

    Syllabus

    Description
    The Peer Reviewer Course is designed to prepare experienced online faculty to become
    certified Quality Matters Peer Reviewers. The Peer Reviewer Course includes a review of
    Quality Matters, practice critiquing and writing helpful recommendations, and a Practice
    Review in which the participants are asked to review select Specific Review Standards in an
    online course using the QM Course Review Management System (CRMS).

    Upon successful completion of this course, eligible participants must complete and submit an
    Application in order to become a certified QM Peer Reviewer. Certified QM Peer Reviewers are
    eligible to serve on both QM-Managed and Subscriber-Managed course reviews.

    The course may also be taken by others interested in learning more about the Peer Reviewer
    role. Instructional designers or faculty who do not have current online teaching experience may
    take the Peer Reviewer Course to meet institutional goals of conducting internal reviews (that
    do not lead to QM certification) or to learn more about Quality Matters.

    Eligibility requirements to become a certified QM Peer Reviewer:

    1. Successful completion of the Applying the QM Rubric workshop and the Peer Reviewer
    Course.
    2. Current online teaching experience in a for-credit course (within the last 18 months).
    3. Complete a Peer Reviewer Application and submit to QM.
    4. Be affiliated with a subscribing institution or have an individual subscription to QM.

    The Peer Reviewer Course is a rigorous and demanding certification course with firm due
    dates that prepares you to hold the role of QM-Certified Peer Reviewer.
    Course Objectives
    Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

    1. Explain the underlying principles of QM and the critical elements of the QM Rubric,
    materials, processes, and roles and responsibilities.
    2. Demonstrate correct application of the QM Rubric Specific Review Standards during a
    practice review of an online course.
    3. Recognize the events that will transpire during the peer review process.
    4. Write helpful recommendations for course improvement.
    5. Reflect on how the recommendations from the PSYCH 212 review impacted and
    influenced the instructor's revisions of the PSYCH 212 course.
