In the June 2020 Steering Committee meeting, members discussed the possibility of an initiative on the peer review of teaching, connected to the RAC on the evaluation of teaching (TEval). While peer review is often equated with a classroom visit focused largely on delivery, TEval has made significant headway in defining peer review in a broader, scholarly way. This special project aims to explore whether the COVID pandemic can serve as a naturally-occurring experiment about how to make peer review cover the range of teaching activities in online instructional environments, such as course design, the development of teaching and learning resources, and assessment.
