2nd CIM/CINet Reviewing Seminar

Reviewing Scientific Articles

Reviewing scientific articles is one of the most important activities for all scholars. You support your peers in developing better publications and, through that, help your scientific community make progress. You help yourself become a better author, by reviewing others’ papers and receiving reviews of your own work.

Reviewing is something that must and can be learned. Creativity and Innovation Management (CIM) and the Continuous Innovation Network (CINet) have taken the initiative to develop a reviewing seminar to help young academics make the first step in their reviewing career.

Program

The seminar is organized as a three-session workshop as follows:

Session 1 – Kick-off – good reviewing practices

• Introduction – Jennie Björk, Katharina Hölzle
• Good reviewing practices – Nicolette Lakemond, Tim Schweisfurth and Melanie Wiener
• Assignment: participants get to review a recent submission to CIM each, as a third reviewer, with one of the faculty as the first reviewer

Session 2 – Workshop

• Review presentations – feedback from the seminar faculty – discussions
• Assignment: either a second round review or a review of a new submission

Session 3 – Workshop/wrap-up

• Review presentations – feedback from the seminar faculty – discussions
• Wrap-up – summary of lessons learnt, further involvement with CIM and CINet

Date and place

The first session will take place on 20 May, from 13:00-17:00. The second and third session will be scheduled in the fall of 2022. The entire seminar will take place virtual.
