Abstract

This essay provides advice for effectively reviewing conference proposals, including how to write comments that are helpful to proposal authors, how to use the “comments to program chair” box, and issues to consider when assigning proposal ratings and recommending acceptance or rejection. Several benefits of reviewing proposals are outlined, along with advice for becoming a reviewer. This essay is situated within the AERA conference context and considers how reviewing conference proposals differs from that of journal articles. Still, much of the advice provided is applicable to scholarly reviewing, more generally.
