Task 1: Read about peer review

1. Read about peer review - before you do anything else this week read about the peer review process in Physiopedia. Be sure that you understand the different roles of quality assessors, peer reviewers and topic experts.
2. Familiarise yourself with our quality standards - also make sure that you have read the Quality Standards document so that you are aware of the quality that we expect in all Physiopedia pages.
   

Task 2: Quality assessing pages

You are now going to quality assess and improve 3 Physiopedia pages to meet our quality standards.

1. Choose any three pages in Physiopedia to assess.
2. Perform your quality assessment - follow the instructions on the Quality Assessor page to complete your assessment and make improvements as required.

Task 3: Peer reviewing pages

Peer reviewing pages is a major part of assuring the quality of the pages in Physiopedia.

When completing a peer review your aim is not to criticise the work of others, it is to constructively provide feedback so that the page can be improved.

1. First, read the Peer Review page in Physiopedia.
2. Choose a page to peer review - go to the Facebook Group and choose a page that one of your fellow participants created on the course last week.
3. Do your peer review - using the Review Questions on the Peer Review template perform your review.
4. Add your review - every page in Physiopedia has an associate 'Talk' page which you can access by clicking on the Discussion tab of that page.  This is wherew you should add your review. To add your review:
   • click the Discussion tab
   • click the + tab
   • add Quality Alert in the title box
   • add your reason below
   • add your signature by typing ~~~~~ or clicking on the signature icon in the editing toolbar (next to [C] on right!).
   • click save
     

Task 4: 

We understand that reviewing and editing other peoples work can be a difficult task but this is how we ensure that Physiopedia is constantly improving and being updated.  Completing this task will help to make you a skilled and confident peer reviewer of Physiopedia and give you a great set of skills for your future volunteer roles.

Social Media Sharing - (use the #physiopedia hash tag)
