I am interested in being a reviewer, what’s involved?
Routes seeks to be a space for publishing the very best of student work in geography. This requires the expert knowledge of a diverse community of geographers who are able to ensure that this work is accurate, innovative and rigorous scholarship that represents the diversity of our discipline.
Geography teachers, post-graduate geography students and those with geography doctorates are integral to this process. By reviewing submissions, you help facilitate opportunities for student geographers to develop their scholarship.
Please sign-up to be a reviewer for Routes.
Who can be a reviewer?
If you are:
- a current UK-based geography teacher with QTS and experience of sixth form teaching,
- a current post-graduate student in geography (master’s or doctorate),
- a current UK-based researcher/ lecturer in geography with a doctorate,
We are especially, but not exclusively, looking for current teachers in the state sector to join the review panel.
If you are a PGCE student and in your final term you can sign up to be a peer reviewer.
As a peer reviewer, you will be sent student submissions to peer review that match your area of interest and expertise.
You should be confident that you have time to review a 2,000-word submission within a two week window
