Welcome to RhetNet Cafe!
Like RhetNet's other venues, the point of RhetNet Cafe
to capture and continue conversations. The conversations
that happen here will become part of the RhetNet collection
of texts on the web (http://www.missouri.edu/rhetnet/).
And, depending on the subject & all, these conversations
might be appropriate for other publishing venues, print or
net. Efforts to publish these things elsewhere, though, will
happen in consultation and cooperation with the folks doing the
talking. So it's important to take a minute to introduce ourselves
here, and for guests to include their email addresses as well as
their names.
So, who are we?

On 23 June 1996, EduPage published the following item...
PEER REVIEW and THE INTERNET
Scientists attending a conference in Denmark sponsored by
the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development
(OECD) were almost unanimous in dismissing electronic challenges
to the tradition of peer review for scientific publications,
although there was also wide agreement about the benefits
of the Internet for the exchange of scientific information
(through the speeding up of peer review and the developing use of
the Internet for distribution of 'preprints' that allow 'open
peer commentary'). (The Economist 22 Jun 96)
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Amber_Guest says, "OK, OK already, what's all this about Kuhn's
legacy?"
Mick says, "[Amber] the concept of paradigm shift is becoming
very important to online publishers. paradigms can shift
without actually disappaering ... but perhaps we'll get into
that in detail later."
Eric shows slide #3.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Some questions come immediately to mind:
What do these scientists mean by 'peer review'?
How is it different in practice and function from 'peer
commentary'?
What do we mean by 'peer review'?
How do our interpretations compare with traditional
assumptions?
What difference does the medium for scholarly work make?
How will scholarship and peer review be transformed by the
net?
If those are overriding concerns for this discussion, some
comments made this week on Rhetnt-L might serve as catalysts
for the conversation...
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
PeteS says, "and what is the difference between the "challenge"
posed by e-communication, versus the speeding up of the peer
review process, which i take to be a good thing?"
Eric [to david]: for my part, i have a hunch scholarship's most
jarring shift in the move from print to net publishing is going
to come with the effects on peer review
douglas says, "Query: why _is_ the peer review process blind? "
Eric [to douglas]: objectivity (which folks still seem to
believe in)
MikeS says, "but pete, doesn't the blind part of blind review
encourage unnecessarily harsh critique? i know the interactive
model *kairos* has developed drives some reviewers crazy ...
but no one has been (obviously) mean "
Camille says, "Maybe our peer review seems more brutal because
we focus on style (as Mick mentioned), which makes our writing
more personal than the sciences' search for data"
beckster [to Eric]: I used to think blind reviews made it easier
for folks to get good quality feedback...but I'm really
questioning that now
beckster nods to mikes....thinks that the "dialogic" review
Kairos uses is MUCH more beneficial....both sides feel a
responsibility
douglas doesn't grace traci's comment with a response. And says
to Eric, I know it isn't always (as I've experienced with
_Kairos_!) but what I'm asking is what is the rational for
_any_ peer review to be blind?
Camille says, "Doesn't blind peer review remove subjectivity?"
Mick says, "remove subjectivity?"
JanetC asks Camille, "Can anything remove subjectivity...and if
so....would that be a good thing?"
Eric says, "i think the problem with blind review--and with any
review in which reviewers remain uncredited--is that writers
and reviewers are put in oppositional relation to each other. "
Mick says, "making reviews blind *allows* for MORE subjectivity,
I'd think."
beckster [to Camille]: NOTHING removes subjectivity. But I
think that's what the aim was. we were just naive enough to
buy into that
booboo says, "Strikes me that most peer review constitutes
opportunities for reviewers to blow their own horns and
critical positions...rarely have I seen review comments that
help the writer improve her position."
Eric says, "they might both hope for quality, but it seems (my
impression anyway) that reviewers are loyal to the Discipline
and writers are loyal to the topic at hand and to the audience
Out There"
douglas [to booboo]: but if the peer-review process was made
available, perhaps some of those reviewers would find it in
their own best interests to do a good job (available to the
end-readers, that is).
MikeS wonders why print journals are so derned nervous if
on-line peer review can (ostensibly) be so easily rebuked and
invalidated? methinks (s)he doth protest too much.
JanetC wonders at a discipline which needs protextion...hmmm...mu
st not be very strong on its own merit
Eric shows slide #4.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Suzanne Cherry:
The question then becomes, how do we convince colleagues of
the quality of our communities and communication? How do we
prove ourselves? How do we receive validation? Those are harder
questions and ones I'm not sure I can answer.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
beckster [to Eric]: Based on my limited experience, I'd say so.
and it's a function of how specialized folks are, as well as
the pressure for them to publish, etc. as individuals rather
than members of a community
Eric figures with RhetNet, we simply say that *conversations we
find interesting count* and if traditional scholars don't
agree, they don't have to play
Eric says, "that is, *participation in conversations* counts (in
terms of professional development, if not advance)"
Mick says, "[to Eric] "Conversations" COnversations? What's this
mean on your vitae? You hazve a plae called conversations?
Tenure ... DENIED!"
douglas says, "Interactive pee-review seems like a good idea
(and this goes on to address Suzane's auery as well) if the
reviewers are recognised as "experts" in the fields and
subjects they review, then they will be more likely to protect
their reputations as such by giving constructive criticism, and
the resultant paper will be percieved as being validated by the
veritable seal of approval from those reviewers."
Eric [to Mick]: fine. don't want no stinkin tenure anyway if
it's going to be that way about it
Mick .oO(pee-review?)
Eric says, "no wait. I can do better than that..."
beckster nods to douglas...THERE's the *ethos* that blind
reviewed articles seem to have
Eric says, "I think what we're valuing is really the *same
thing* that scholars have always valued. They don't call it
conversation, they call it publication, but *that's what
publication IS*"
Mick says, "you better do better than that eric -- lots of
people in this room probably DO want tenure someday, i bet."
PeteS says, "but they *do* call it conversation ... its one of
the most popular metaphors around for scholarship, eric."
booboo says, "Ah, but there's the crunch, they call it that and
nod their heads until we who engage try to call it that too."
MikeS says, "long, drawn out, impenetrable, unbearable print
based conversation ;-)"
Mick says, "But this, Pete -- this here, this MOO right now --
this really is formatted like a conversation, juvenile
pee-=review jokes and all. This, I the Traditionalist Saith,
Doth Not Counteth."
Eric says, "so what we can argue is that--as different as they
may appear at first--scholarly conversations on the net are
actually strongly rooted in scholarly conversations in print.
they differ in speed, in convention, in citation, but they are,
at heart, the same thing"
PeteS says, "taylor and erbin ... though ... even call MUDing
and other e-forms a *responsibility* for scholars today."
Eric says, "so we create a conversational scholarly journal and
call conversation publication. now we're even speaking their
language :)"
Camille says, "So, I'm getting that collaboration (positive peer
review) is to be equated with e-journals, whereas individualism
(negative peer review) is equated with print journals. I think
this is what everyone is saying, but I'm wondering how true
these bi-polar assertions hold."
Mick says, "Camille, I like the polarity you draw there, because
it really supports the idea Tari brought up in the e-mail
conversation ..."
Mick says, "That we, in talking about this stuff, sound
*arrogant* -- like e-journals are *better* than print journals."
MikeS says, "each print convention is good at its own thing --
print is a slow moving, fairly dependable form. i'd like to
kep it for what it's good for."
douglas [to booboo]: actually interactive peeR review can be
instantiated in print journals--it just takes more work. And I
haven't seen it done in either the humanities or the sciences.
Mick says, "they're different. they do different things. don't
introduce the word "better" or the converstation stops dead,
like at Victor's panel at the confernce last month."
Eric shows slide #5.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Mark Gellis:
We can also use a little "blackmail." If any of them would
be willing, why not get some of the really big names in one of
the more conservative areas of English studies, to publish
'e-version only" articles...for anyone in that field, an
article by such a big name is a must, and it would force them to
use the technology to get a copy. It would also be a strong
argument in forcing them to accept e-publishing (via the credibility of
the big name...if they accept it, it must be okay).
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Camille says, "But if e-jounals do not strive for improvement,
won't they be the same as print journals only electronic?"
douglas thinks one of the main benefits of e-journals is seeing
how *any* type of publishing may be different from the
traditional models currently in use (and I use the word
currently rather losely here).
Mick wonders about this concept: Eric and I briefly discussed
teh idea of putting *this* MOO up for review with CCC or RR or
some such. Knowing that, do you suddenly change your tone of
contribution? (We would get permissions from all involved
first, of course -- but the question stands)
douglas [to Mick]: would you edit out the scatalogical comments
or leave them in?
MikeS would be *more* outrageous
traci says, "well, i wouldn't have said what i just said. i
woulda just stayed quiet"
Mick says, "See! That's exactly mypoint. I made a pee-review
joke. Do we edit that out?"
booboo says, "NO~!"
beckster [to Mick]: undoubtedly, if we knew this was *destined*
for print, the tone would change.....hey, we're rhetoricians....
we understand about audience, purpose, etc.
Eric says, "and this can work to our advantage in more ways than
one. what if you become known as a scholar who risks publishing
in these weird e-journals. perhaps a department full of old
school scholars will sail your CV into the circular file, BUT:
would you want to work with that gang? wouldn't your interests
be thwarted at every turn? wouldn't you have to wait for them
all to retire before you could have fun? "
PeteS thinks it depends ... is it an article or a transcript?
Eric says, "NOOOOO thanks. I *want* to be screen out of
situations where I would be screened out"
traci says, "i don't think i'd be able to write at all really"
PaulaP says, "PeteS it seems to me it would be more of a
transcript than an article...."
JanetC says, "Ya gonna edit the life outta the conversation?
Where does it stop?"
booboo [to Eric]: I agree, but I also feel that you can only
change the system from within...if you're out, you don't have a
say anymore.
Eric [to booboo]: I used to think that too. I'm no longer
convinced.
Eric [to booboo]: I'm beginning to think that institutions only
change in response to pressure from without. the people within
are put to work enacting those changes, but they don't provoke
them
Mick says, "I'm trying to picture "writing" this for CCC. Would
Eric's metniong of the interactive historigraphy need a
footnote which explained it>? O an URL in the footnote?"
beckster [to booboo]: they have been published here and
there.....but they are tougher to read in print than as they're
generated
Jade_Guest says, "would those not used to this be interested in
this transcript? or would they find the "wading through" not
worth it?"
Eric shows slide #6.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Albert Rouzie:
Maybe the notion of competing with print doesn't get us
where we want to go. We keep talking about how conversational
genres like e-mail are different--hypertext too--from print.
Competiton levels those differences when in fact the new media
are valuable precisely because they accomplish new forms of
communication. Acceptance will be gradual, driven perhaps by citation,
participation, and maybe most of all, need for the knowledge
produced (and the process of production) by the new genres.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
beckster says, "my guess is that, if these types of things are
destined for print, they'll need to be edited so that they are
easier for non-MOOers to follow"
mday says, "the sense of freshness of the ideas as they happened
and intertwined with other ideas, for one."
Amber_Guest says, "I find MOO transcripts very hard to read, and
I don't think that the difficulty points out to anything
particularly profound about the nature of the text."
Jade_Guest says, "if we criticize the internet for trying to
push print classic on it, why are we trying to push print
digital on print??"
Eric [to david]: there's too much of the moment here. taken out
of its (real)time, the conversation is sapped of its native
energy, which informs its meaning
Eric says, "same for putting it on the web, which we plan to do.
still froze. still needs help."
Eric says, "I like albert's comment: value comes from need. when
the knowledge produced and stored online-only becomes worth
coming after, those in power will come after it and reward will
follow"
Claudine says, "wait a sec--as teachers, do any of you who teach
in the moo accept transcripts as finished work? I mean, isn't
this a starting place?"
Jade_Guest says, "if we're trying to "market" what we do to
benefit us, cramming it down their throats in a manner hard to
handle isn't the answer. packaging is important"
MikeS thinks there's a difference between on-line, hypertext
writing and MOO writing. MOO is more akin to conference
discussions. i don't know .... i don't know how much credit
can be given to MOO scripts. for instance, all the hours i've
spent on tuesday cafe ... how could i count *that*?
Eric [to Claudine]: I don't like the idea of revision as
refinement. I'd rather we thought in terms of continuing,
expanding, dissipating from here rather than turning around and
fiddling with this particular bunch of words. better, I think,
to keep after the ideas and let the words trail after us like a
wake
Eric shows slide #7.

Do not seek to follow

douglas [to MikeS]: I put "particpant in the Netoric Project on
my vita. I think it should count, ergo, for me it does.
beckster says, "I think we have to be careful NOT to claim it as
more valuable than it is"
Mick says, "Douglas, c'mon. The people hiring or promoting you
will decide if it counts. Not you."
MikeS says, "oh yeah, tuesday has been an ever-increasing source
of inspiration. and i know i'll have a special regard for
everyone i've worked with at tuesday ... but are we doing the
wrong thing by trying to get it recognized? i mean, won't such
acceptance just KILL the interaction?"
douglas [to Mick]: I have to decide that it's important first,
or it wouldn't appear on my vita. And it's not the *only* thing
on there--I just treat it as important.
booboo says, "No, we have to convince committees of the worth of
whatever these things are, not establish equivalencies. We do,
however, you're right, have to speak their language somewhat."
Eric says, "in other words, we *must* break free of the shackles
of print *convention* but we don't need to (and probably
wouldn't want to) leave behind the broad social function of
scholarly interaction. "
beckster [to booboo]: so are conversations at conferences, but
no one claims those. I'm not saying this is equal exactly,
just that we shouldn't overstate it
mday says, "well, could be more valuable as it's all written
down. You can word process it and even run a search for key
words."
douglas [to Mick]: but maybe if we edit this and publish in CCC
or RR, then the PTR people may be shown its professional value
and perhaps a few will start going (if you virtually build it
-- and physically bill it-- they will come)
Mick favors archiving, sure. That was the impetus for Kairos a
year ago. But htat brings us back to peer-review ... the K
stuff is peer reivewed and archived. This stuff isn't
peer-reviewed ... and it's archived. a weird juxtaposing.
Eric says, "this stuff isn't peer reviewed???????????????????????
"
Eric says, "back to our original question"
______________________
| |
Eric holds up a BIG sign: | what IS peer review? |
|______________________|
MikeS [to douglas]: for the first few issues, i'm going to look
at what has already been done, spontaeously. then i want to
visit out-of-the-way lists ... i think of it as a "best of"
which requires me to troll and find the best...
Eric says, "I think everybody here is reviewing just as fast as
they can, and since we're all peers...."
booboo says, "I'd like to define peer review or see it evolve
into ongoing expansions of ideas (just like print) in different
forms."
mday says, "Claudine, will it always be an in-crowd?"
traci says, "this stuff IS peer reviewed, probably in a way
closer to the meaning of peer review than blind reviews. there
is a giving and taking, feedback on ideas, requests for
clarification and support. this thing does a better job at
peer review than many peer review seem to"
beckster [to Eric]: but we're not making evaluative comments
that will result in textual changes
Eric says, "yeah, booboo: ongoing expansion of ideas. "
cath agrees w/traci
mday says, "neat traci! In a way, we're reviewing each other as
we go!"
douglas says, "as we are all technorhetoricians, we could
workshop the transcript into a written and peer-revied essay
(simultaneously accomplished) thus collapsing 2 steps into one)"
booboo says, "Peer review will always involve evaluation...ought
to, also. But it's how that evaluation is given/taken/shared/
etc. that might change. "
Mick says, "I'm talking about peer review in the manner which
the Old Trads will understand the term."
Eric says, "this is different that print in terms of
conventions, not function"
mday says, "And I'm talking about reinventing notions of peer
review and collaborative scholarship"
traci says, "we do evaluate. we don't respond to comments which
aren't 'valued'; we respond at length to those that we do value"
booboo says, "Some ideas on MOO and off aren't worth
pursuing/expanding "
booboo says, "And the review process will take care of those."
traci says, "and it seems to me a nod is an agreeable evaluation"
Eric says, "the text doesn't sit still, so we can't rip into
style and grammar and organization. we keep ideas in play.
everything gets challenged or consented to. everything is
negotiated. that's what peer review ought to be. a group
working together to negotiate toward qualiity"
traci says, "i am not saying this is the same as traditional
peer review"
MikeS [to Eric]: but it may be a long time before mainstream
academia ets over its paper fetish
Mick says, "traci, you know i agree with that. but grumpy old
traditionalist laffs in your face. if we start caliming *this*
is peer-reviewed, we DEVALUE the term overall as we apply it
other places."
beckster says, "again, though, the point of THIS kind of peer
dialogue/review is NOT to alter existing text"
Eric says, "i hate to see us bow to the print conventions that
have been misshapen by long habit"
Eric [to Mick]: thing is, it's not even a matter of medium.
*this* is what peer review could and should look like in print,
too!
beckster [to Eric]: but I wonder about the logistics/viability
of this type of peer reveiw in print. Yes, it might result in
better end product, but it would simply take too long
douglas [to Eric]: I agree--but this medium is allowing us to
experiment with what peer review *could* be in ways that we
couldn't get away with in print (plus we get to make pee jokes)
MikeS [to Eric]: but i want to be able to read something, gt it
over with, move on, and read something else. transcripts such
as this are *not* kind to readers. what about just wanting to
read a bit and move on? is that readerly text eliminated?
Mick says, "I think we gotta choose our battles REAL carefully.
Re-defining-re-valuaing a term like "peer reivew" is unwinnable
if we're worried about seeing something "count""
mday says, "Maybe we needn't call it peer-review, however."
Eric notes that in the item from Edupage, the science scholars
dismissed electronic threats to peer review, but allowed as how
'open peer commentary' was ok withthem
Eric says, "so, mick, they may be closer to coming around that
you might think :)"
mday says, "Why does it have to be "review"?"
MikeS says, "peer view?"
Mick ooohs! Peer E-value-ation!
Eric shows slide #8.

Tari Fanderclai:
I find it kind of amusing that we're talking about print
snobbery and elitism among the traditionalists. Don't we do
a lot of the same thing--suggesting that what they're doing is
outmoded and inferior and everyone should get online and learn
the skills we already developed? Heck, a lot of electronic
publications have more gadgetry than content, and a lot of them
are all but inaccessible with the equipment found on the desks of
so many academics, particularly in the humanities.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
douglas [to Eric]: based on what I've seen in print, I suspect
that the science scholars dismiss electronic peer review
(especially open peer review) because it would ultimately
devolve into flame wars!

Mick says, "E-journals are often critiqued for valuing style
over substance. THAT is a battle worth fighting."
Eric [to douglas]: I wonder, though, to what extent the tendency
toward viciousness is a product of the current system? I
suspect it is, myself
Eric [to Camille]: but what if review remains focused on ideas
rather than texts, on continuing conversations and extending
knowledge *together* rather than competing for 'scarce'
recognition resources
Mick says, "Eric are you separating ideas and texts? how?"
Eric [to Mick]: yes. 'emphasis' is my knife. if the purpose of a
text is to further a conversation, to keep an idea in play,
that's different than if the text itself is the focus of
attention
douglas [to Camille]: it depends on how well we keep in mind the
idea that we are engaged in a profession and thus should be
"professional" and contribute constructively to that "ongoing
conversation" rather then hijacking the dialogue with flames
(carnival, however, is not the same as flames, so I think the
banter we engage in, when not destructive, is acceptable --and
Bakhtin would love it.)
Eric says, "in print, too much weight lands on the text. space
is so precious in terms of money and recognition that every
text has to be as perfect as possible. "
Eric says, "in print, the text takes over the ideas. just like
in the classroom, where grades take over for learning"
Eric says, "the comparison is no accident!"
Eric shows slide #9.

Nick Carbone:
As we work in both print and pixels, if we cite the pixels
in the print, then attention will be paid. When someof us are
up for tenure, if that still exists down the line, and we
point to how often our e-journal work has been cited, that'll
build validity.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
beckster [to Eric]: you're denying any "poem" then, at least in
the rosenblattian sense
Mick says, "eric, help me -- Text:Grades as Ideas:???"
Scott sighs.
Eric says, "I'm not familiar with the rosenblattian sense, but
poems can exist in dynamic convesational environments. see
CREWRT-L."
beckster thinks they can exist in the connection between a
reader and a text, too
Eric says, "not text:grades exactly. publish-or-perish:grades as
ideas:learning"
traci says, "has anyone considered a citation index for online
work? i know those exist for print journals and such...why not
for online work? i mean you choose the sources when you have a
citation index (you don't try to archive the world)."
Eric [to traci]: good idea! that's something ACW might ought to
provide!
Mick eyes The Daedalean Citation Index created and maintained by
Saint Traci Gardner
Mick hmms eric's analogy which equates publich-or-perish with
ideas. I thot one was positive and one was antiquted
Eric says, "I think I got that backwards mick"
Eric says, "should be: pub-or-die:ideas as grades:learning"
Camille says, "delivery is an important part of all
rhetoric--electronic or print"
Eric wonders if that isn't conflating expansive rhetoric with
style (not that they're unrelated): expansive substance
Eric [to Mick]: in print, ideas are compressed. the treatment
seeks depth over superficiality. pack as much into those pages
as possible. on the net, people negotiate, meander, follow
tangents, return, refigure, talk about movies & pets, then get
back to the point. lots of words. copious words. the substance
remains, but is dissipated.
Eric shows slide #10.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Michael J. Salvo:
*my* personal feelings are that through publishing _kairos_
as best we can, looking at and maybe even influencing
(positively, or negatively -- ie, 'we're not going to do
*that*') other on-line publications, and then joining
debates such as this, we will begin to develop some mores and
traditions for on-line publication. and a big part of that
process is making mistakes, recognizing them as such, and then
adjusting the process accordingly. it's a long, tiring, labor-
intensive process -- and the end can't even be fathomed let alone
seen. there may be no light at the end of this tunnel -- a
publication of becoming (?).
