MERLOT Editorial Boards

Editorial Boards are the cornerstones of MERLOT. They lead the development of MERLOT's discipline communities - one Editorial Board for each community - and are comprised of:

  1. An Editor or Editors
  2. Associate Editors
  3. Peer Reviewers
Editors, Associate Editors and Peer Reviewers are nominated and supported by System Partners and/or Campus Partners. Many Peer Reviewers are those who volunteer on their own time to review for MERLOT..

All MERLOT Editorial Board members are faculty with:

  • Expertise in the scholarship of their field,
  • Excellence in teaching,
  • Experience in using technology in teaching and learning, and
  • Connections to professional organizations in their discipline.

Each Editorial Board is responsible for:

  • Expanding and managing the collection of online learning materials in its discipline.
  • Educating and reaching out to the community of educators in its discipline.
  • Implementing and managing the MERLOT Peer Review Process for materials in its discipline.
  • Recruiting and training Peer Reviewers.
