User´s view of special object Peer Review

The PeerReview object includes a corresponding meta attribution and setting of internal versions of the media objects (PeerReview files). The ZMS action "Set Active File" allows in one step to activate a media object and deactivate all other deposited media objects.

Administrator´s view of special object Peer Review

When applying the PeerReview object a discussion forum with alerting and evaluation functionality (Bulletin-Board 3.0) is initialised. Participants of discussions can subscribe certain discussion threads and then receive a notification per e-mail for each incoming contribution. The online discussion takes place centrally in the forum. From experience this mix (simultaneous Push and Pull) facilitates and enhances the exchange in a group.

The administrator e-mail address is taken over automatically from the PeerReview object. It serves as sender address for sending notification e-mails for the subscribed discussion threads in the forum. The cancelling of notifications happens comfortably via a link in the notification.

In the forum links are displayed directly as click-able hyperlinks.
