Ever So Slowly, Colleges Start to Count Work With Technology in Tenure
Decisions
The key may be a growing movement for peer review of Web sites and online
teaching materials

This seems, to me, to be an issue that aoir should be "involved
in," institutionally. Strikes me that the exec. should probably get
involved in, at least, clearninghouse/interface sorts of
activities: making referees/experts available, listing same, constructing
criteria/standards/evaluation sheets, etc. 

In other words, if any group has a "stake" in seeing that faculty get
value/credit for working in online environments, sure seems like aoir is
such a group.

just a thought.
