Abstract

This peer reviewer workshop is compulsory for all University of Hong Kong staff members who are in their faculty’s summative peer review panel and will act as peer reviewers. We have scheduled six sessions in Semester 2, academic year 2024-25. Please choose one session to attend, as the content will be the same for all sessions.

If you have attended the previous reviewer workshop with the same title, or have completed the online course “Introduction to Summative Peer Review of Teaching” available at HKU Online Learning until 31 December 2024, you do not need to attend any of these sessions.

This workshop will help participants understand the role of a summative peer reviewer and good practices in professional teaching observations in summative peer review. Participants will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in applying standards and qualities of good teaching. To make the most of the workshop, all participants are encouraged to obtain and bring along a copy of the Summative Peer Review of Teaching Form from their own faculty.
