The HERDSA WA Branch is pleased to offer a new initiative providing peer feedback on draft abstracts prior to submission for peer review. The aim of the peer feedback initiative is particularly to provide mentoring to less experienced scholars, but we recognise that feedback from peers can be helpful whatever one’s stage of development or level of experience.

Please note that this process is entirely independent of the peer review process for the final submissions for the conference. Peer reviewers will be members of the WA Branch Committee and other volunteer HERDSA WA Branch members.

The Higher Education Research and Development Society of Australasia (HERDSA) Conference will be held on 17-30 June 2017. This year’s theme is Curriculum Transformation.

If you are interested in participating in this offer please email your draft abstract to Melissa Davis before 30 January (m.davis@curtin.edu.au).

The closing date for abstract submissions is 6 February.
