--- You wrote: I introduced my campus to this concept. Traditionally our scholarship has been $E3peer reviewed$E4. But recently this has led to shamefully poor quality publications (in other words, the traditional system of peer review is dysfunctional ). I do more and more things outside this framework. Evaluations are public acceptance, good reviews from traditional reviewing journals, newspapers, cyber review sources, such as MERLOT, and comments from web site users. Yes I have to demonstrate the acceptance of my work. Some of you who are familiar with my Foreign-Language Software & Web Central http://webpages.charter.net/tbob/softwrev.html will know that there are organizations which evaluate educational web sites for language learning: Blue Web'n [reviews of foreign language education sites] http://www.kn.pacbell.com/wired/bluewebn/contentarea.cfm?cid=6 EDsitement [foreign languages] http://edsitement.neh.gov/tab_lesson.asp?subjectArea=2 Education World Foreign-Language Site Reviews http://www.education-world.com/awards/past/topics/lang_arts.shtml#Foreign%20Lang uages I Love Languages http://www.ilovelanguages.com/ MERLOT - World Languages http://www.merlot.org/artifact/BrowseArtifacts.po?catcode=318&browsecat=317 I would personally appreciate hearing about others. To give you an example of how things can work, I had a very good review in 2004 for Societe Francois Villon http://www.utm.edu/staff/globeg/villon.shtml This site is also a "signet de la Bibliotheque Nationale de France" and is now cited by most book-length studies on Villon. I also have some five-star MERLOT sites. When it comes time for yearly eveluation, I simply give an update of my web work and receive my points. I keep up with page view stats, etc. Yes, I do have paper publicacions, but more frequently electronic. TBob Robert D.
