Peer Review

 Peer Review

There are a number of advantages and disadvantages of the peer review process:

Advantages:

Disadvantages:

 

  • Promotes team work, although arguably through fear of a low peer review mark

  • Improves productivity, since all members are motivated to impress peers with contributions

  • Rewards members for higher contributions of work.

 

  • Marks maybe allocated by internal politics, instead of based on true contributions to the project.

  • Creates an atmosphere unreceptive to disagreements of opinions, through worries of irritating team members resulting in a lower peer review mark. This will hamper a key team working process – the critical review of ideas.

  • Can disadvantage members for doing their share, especially if other members have done above and beyond what was asked of them. Overcomplicating work is just as serious as oversimplifying work, sometimes it is best to do all that is required, especially in a concise report.

 

 

So was it effective? I think it is necessary, although not entirely effective. I appreciate that there is no way of preventing internal politics from affecting the peer review marks and so will always effect the accuracy of the peer review process. However, it may be possible to reduce the effect of these politics by providing a larger scoring scale, instead of the 3 part scoring scale for contributions to research, report and team working.
