About UCeL

 

Peer-review

To ensure quality of all UCeL materials, we have developed a robust two-stage peer-review process.

In the first stage of quality assurance, the content specification is peer-reviewed and marked according to a structured scheme by a subject expert who assesses the material for factual accuracy, appropriateness of media choices, effectiveness of assessment etc. Having passed this stage, the specification is then developed into the online resource. It is then re-assessed by the same reviewer to ensure that it is still "fit for purpose" and now the interactions, animations etc are also evaluated for their level of appropriateness and engagement.

Peer-reviewers are subject experts from UCeL partner institutions, but are not from the institution where the material they are assessing was created or developed. Their expert knowledge is another shared benefit for the community.
