Becoming a reviewer: Insights from the student and editorial boards of ESPJ
English for Specific Purposes, 2023
Reviewing is an important task in one's academic career. Learning the skills and gaining practice are often overlooked activities in postgraduate education programmes. English for Specific Purposes instituted a Student Editorial Board (SEB) in 2022 and tasked two new Associate Editors to provide mentorship in reviewing over the course of a year. This paper focuses on the key questions which arose through mentoring meetings, such as the processes a paper goes through before it gets sent out for review and how to frame critical and supportive reviews. It also discusses the development of skills through membership in the SEB, drawing on reviews drafted individually over the year and one-on-one mentoring sessions, as well as feedback and group meetings with SEB members, Associate Editors and a very experienced board member. The paper ends with suggestions on how early career academics might become reviewers and ways to approach and respond to a paper as a reviewer. The paper demonstrates that offering SEB positions in journals is beneficial for postgraduate students, editors and the field overall.
Editorial Board Committee Editorial Review Committee
Health, Sports, and Kinesiology (JOHSK) publishes research articles in the fields of Health, Sports, and Kinesiology. JOHSK is an open access and peer-reviewed research journal that is published by the International Organization for Health, Sports, and Kinesiology (IOHSK). The Journal of Health, Sports, and Kinesiology (JOHSK) publishes four times a year. The JOHSK provides a platform for the researchers, academicians, professionals, practitioners, and students to impart and share knowledge. JOHSK welcomes and acknowledges high-quality theoretical and empirical original research papers, case studies, review papers, literature reviews, book reviews, conceptual framework, analytical and simulation models, technical notes from researchers, academicians, professionals, practitioners, and students from all over the world. Work must be of a quality and context that would be of interest to an international readership. Manuscripts for special issues and individual papers can be on any contemporary health, sport s, and kinesiology topics of international interest. Research findings of high-quality research involving any discipline and methodology related to Health, Sports, and Kinesiology will be welcome. However, the journal's aim and scope are to ensure it publishes high quality research that could potentially inform research. The research findings do not have to be comparative (in the sense of comparing aspects of Health, Sports, and Kinesiology in different countries or cultures); a manuscript may report research carried out in just one regional location or sociocultural setting. Work can be drawn from any context or research paradigm. However, the Journal tends to publish empirical research studies that have clear significance to an international readership.
What the Current Editorial Team Values in Reviews for JRME
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2022
In the last issue's editorial (Herbst et al., 2022b), we elaborated on the role that the practice of peer-reviewing manuscripts plays in building the field of research in mathematics education. In this editorial, we complement those notes by revisiting the review process from a perspective more centered on the relationship between reviewers and the JRME editorial team, and how that relationship furthers the journal's proactive work of building the field. If the last editorial spoke about the relationship between reviewers and authors-namely, how reviews can be educative as well as welcoming-this editorial addresses complementary themes in the relationship between reviewers and the editorial team. We especially hope to convey to reviewers our perspective in selecting them to review and what we would like (and need) to learn from them. In JRME's editorial process, the role of reviewers is essential: Members of our editorial team are not expert on everything that comes across our desks, so we rely on reviewers to help us learn to appreciate the pieces that are particularly good and to understand why other pieces need to be rejected. The reviewer role is advisory; thus, to make best use of the advice given as we discern what to do with a submission, we need to be able to learn from reviews. Considering the important role of reviews in our process, we hope to highlight the qualities we value in reviews and to relay them to reviewers so that they may consider them when writing reviews. 1 We begin by outlining what reviewers can expect from us, and then describe the kind of advice we need from reviewers. We acknowledge valuable comments on a previous version by Tutita Casa, Teddy Chao, Vilma Mesa, and Eva Thanheiser.

Auckland 2009, to assemble a small team of volunteers. A small team will suffice, we do not need to get into the large numbers serving some of our Australian peers, for example Higher Education Research and Development has 2 Editors and 20 Associate Editors. plus Editors for special issues and book reviews [7], and t h e Australian Educational Researcher has 19 persons in an 'Editorial Team' plus 4 'Advisory Editors' for production support [8].
