Peer Review

Last Wednesday we held the first Innovation North Doctoral Symposium. This was a small, but perfectly formed gathering of students and speakers working in the Information Management field. It always amazes me (and I know it shouldn't) how isolated one becomes, when you put your head down and work away on your project. Meeting and receiving peer reviewed feedback on your work can be a brutal experience (through the outsiders critique and peer review) yet very therapeutic and beneficial experience. Perhaps, reflecting back I can say that as my feedback, certainly was very positive, and the probing questioning as to my topic and method, providing me with plenty of food-for-thought.
