The three C's: Collegiality, Collaboration, Credibility

3 Credits a semseter - Peer Review Coordinator

Administration never sees anything (unless they want them to)

Faculty for Faculty not punative, not attached to performance reviews, student evals, or faculty evals--LSC very much wants to keep it that way

debating now about "badge" for doing the peer review, but it would be more instructor based, versus giving to the course

"It's a learning process for everyone involved."  Best practices could be put in a repository

INTRAinstitutional

This also evaluates stduent interacion, instructor feedback and more (not grades)

Still has rubric that uses yes/no and met/not met ("in progress")

Even with cost of release credits, it's much more cost effective

QM $1000 per review (half goes to reviewers) ($150 per rreivew all to reviewers)
QM certificateion invlad if instructor, syllabus, outcomes etc. change POET if minor/major changes are made in class instructor can have course re-reviewed by lead reviewer (no charge)
QM  oustide quality control: no internal bias POET all internal reviewrs possible conflicts and bias
Materials rstricted and not customizable POET matreials shareable and customizable
QM might not familar with LS POET reviewers are familar with LMS

LSC sees excitement

eLearning budget pays for courses covered
