    Review Criteria

    When reviewing an open textbook, the following criteria are addressed. The second item of each criterion asks the reviewer to rate it on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 = very poor and 5 = excellent).

    Comprehensiveness
    N/A12345
    The text covers all areas and ideas of the subject appropriately and provides an effective index and/or glossary.


    Content Accuracy
    N/A12345
    Content, including diagrams and other supplementary material, is accurate, error-free, and unbiased.


    Relevance/Longevity
    N/A12345
    Content is up-to-date, but not in a way that will quickly make the text obsolete within a short period of time. The text is written and/or arranged in such a way that necessary updates will be relatively easy and straightforward to implement.


    Clarity
    N/A12345
    The text is written in lucid, accessible prose, and provides adequate context for any jargon/technical terminology used.


    Consistency
    N/A12345
    The text is internally consistent in terms of terminology and framework.


    Modularity
    N/A12345
    The text is easily and readily divisible into smaller reading sections that can be assigned at different points within the course (i.e., enormous blocks of text without subheadings should be avoided). The text should not be overly self-referential, and should be easily reorganized, and realigned with various subunits of a course without presenting much disruption to the reader.


    Organization/Structure/Flow
    N/A12345
    The topics in the text are presented in a logical, clear fashion.


    Interface
    N/A12345
    The text is free of significant interface issues, including navigation problems, distortion of images/charts, and any other display features that may distract or confuse the reader.


    Grammatical/Spelling Errors
    N/A12345
    The text contains no grammatical or spelling errors.


    Diversity and Inclusion
    N/A12345
    The text reflects diversity and inclusion regarding culture, gender, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, education, religion. It does not include insensitive or offensive language in these areas.
