Presentation given to Yr 12 students on research skills and establishing PLNS. Sorry, it's fairly sparse from the slides alone, please let me know if you'd like more info on the content of the lesson!
The document provides results from a pre-course survey of CHECET 2013 participants. It includes information on the disciplines of participants, their biggest teaching and learning challenges, their confidence and previous use of technology, and their expectations and interests related to the course. The majority of participants were from health, education, information technology, student learning, and science disciplines. Their biggest teaching challenges included lack of time, student engagement, infrastructure issues, and keeping knowledge up to date. For learning, challenges involved academic skills, juggling responsibilities, access to resources, and engagement. Participants had mixed confidence with various technologies and most had used learning management systems and mobile phones previously. Their main expectations were to better understand available tools and how to use them effectively
This document provides guidance on using library databases such as ProQuest and JSTOR to research topics and find scholarly journal articles and other sources. It outlines how to develop keywords from a topic, search databases effectively using Boolean logic and filters, collect and save search results, and get help from a librarian if needed. Databases contain peer-reviewed sources not available elsewhere and can save time compared to general web searches. Tips are provided on refining searches, choosing file formats, and excluding book reviews from JSTOR results.
Google Scholar is a free tool for searching scholarly literature such as academic articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions. It provides an easy way to search across many sources but has some limitations compared to specialized databases. The document recommends using a variety of research tools and services, including Google Scholar, library databases, interlibrary loan, and individual subject databases to conduct comprehensive research.
The document provides information about a library instruction session on researching virology methods and protocols. It introduces the librarian Laksamee Putnam and her contact information. It then outlines the agenda which includes refreshing students on library resources, discussing plagiarism and citation, and searching for relevant resources on virology methods.
The document discusses social media design patterns and proposes creating a social media pattern language. It provides background on pattern libraries and formats. Key points:
- Patterns help solve problems by describing contexts, problems, and solutions that can create new contexts.
- Patterns include elements like name, description, related patterns, examples.
- Existing pattern libraries and formats are discussed but a new social media focused pattern language is proposed.
- A workshop exercise was proposed to brainstorm social media patterns, define problems and solutions, and organize the patterns into a library.
The document provides 3 steps for writing a research paper: [1] Familiarize yourself with existing works on your topic and compare their perspectives to your own; [2] Integrate evidence from outside sources with your own insights; [3] Choose a topic that intrigues you based on your readings, discussions, and news, then form a research question. It also lists some tools for finding information, such as talking to librarians, searching the library catalog and databases, and using search engines. An example main research question is provided on why some American Muslim women wear hijabs and others do not.
Research involves investigating topics by collecting information from multiple sources and organizing it meaningfully. People conduct research to learn, for fun, to share information, or to become experts in certain areas. Researchers include scientists, lawyers, doctors, teachers, actors, and students. When choosing a research topic, one should pick a subject they find interesting and can find adequate information on to learn something new without it being too difficult. Information can be found through books, interviews, videos, magazines, newspapers, and credible websites like Kids.nationalgeographic.com and Kidsclick.org. Taking notes requires focusing on what is important and relevant to the topic while paraphrasing and summarizing to avoid plagiarism.

Taking a Bite in the Middle: Implementing Digital Portfolios in FYC CoursesChris Friend
This presentation explores the benefit of implementing single-document digital portfolios in a first-year writing course. I position these portfolios as an accessible, flexible middle ground between traditional paper portfolios and fully online electronic portfolios.
The document discusses why citations are important, including attributing intellectual property, providing credit to creators, pointing readers to original sources, avoiding plagiarism, and contributing to academic discourse. It notes the key elements included in a citation, such as creators, authors, publication date, title, and media. Finally, it provides guidance on determining the proper citation format for different source types, such as databases, online journals, websites, government documents, and references.
The document discusses tagging and folksonomies. It defines tags as keywords or descriptors applied by users to describe digital objects. A folksonomy is described as a collection of tags collaboratively created by users to categorize objects, as opposed to a taxonomy created by professionals. Advantages of tagging include being simple to use, lowering the cost of categorization, and supporting serendipitous browsing. However, disadvantages include variability in tag quality and lack of conceptual relationships between tags. Examples of websites that utilize tagging and folksonomies are provided.
This document discusses various methods for staying current with research, including table of contents alerts, search alerts, citation alerts, blogs, Twitter, Google News alerts, Google Scholar alerts, and mobile options. It provides an overview of each method and how they can help researchers automatically receive new information on topics of interest through email or RSS feeds. The document also includes polls to gauge attendee's familiarity and use of RSS feeds, blogs, and Twitter for scholarly purposes.
This document provides an overview of academic writing for international students. It discusses academic honesty versus dishonesty, including principles of citing work and avoiding plagiarism. It also covers writing structures for term papers, accessing research databases, referencing styles, and creating bibliographies and reference lists. The document aims to give guidance on best practices for conducting research and writing academic papers.
This document outlines a sheltered instruction technology integration plan for a 7th grade science class. It proposes using various online tools and applications to help English language learners build vocabulary and demonstrate concepts. These include books on tape, vocabulary games, word puzzles, and spell checkers. It also suggests using Cyberlab and narrated assignment directions to demonstrate skills and strategies. The plan aims to provide feedback for student development using these accessible and device-compatible technology resources.
The document provides information about the Wellesley High School library for the fall of 2009 semester. It introduces the library staff and resources available which include over 26 computers, scanners, cameras and digital resources. The goals are to help students identify, evaluate and utilize resources as well as use technology effectively. The library is open Monday-Thursday until 3:45pm and Friday until the same time. Various activities are offered such as a student advisory board and book clubs. The document also provides details about author Truman Capote such as his most famous works, the controversy over origins of "To Kill a Mockingbird", his book "In Cold Blood" and films about his life.
The document discusses plagiarism and copyright. It defines plagiarism as using someone else's copyrighted work without permission or credit. It notes that everything is copyrighted from the date it is created, whether or not a copyright date is visible. The consequences of plagiarism are discussed, noting that students can face failing grades, suspension, or expulsion for plagiarizing. The document advises citing sources, using quotation marks for direct quotes, and paraphrasing to avoid plagiarizing.

Ethnography is defined as "the work of describing a culture." Ethnographers conduct field research through observation in natural settings to understand how a culture functions. They aim to understand how learning occurs and how communities are constructed from the perspectives of participants. Data collection strategies involve observing everyday occurrences for long periods of time and thinking like the people being observed. Notes from fieldwork should include time, date, topic, page number, sensory impressions, personal responses, and questions. Analysis begins by reading notes to identify hypotheses or themes, and may also include content analysis, typologies, sociograms, and metaphors. Online ethnography allows studying online social media and reaching diverse populations across distances.
This lecture teaches about how to write research methodology, sampling technique, Research Onion, Durrant's seven pointed typology of Research, research data, theoretical framework and ethical considerations. Its video is present : https://youtu.be/6SOhlBMaa-A
This document outlines the research process in 14 steps for students at MassArt. It discusses developing a topic and research question, finding background information and relevant books, articles, images and websites. It also covers evaluating sources, the writing process, citing research, and getting help from the library reference desk or staff. The overall goal is to guide students through conducting effective research for their academic work at MassArt.
This document provides suggestions for planning lessons that go beyond traditional teaching methods and integrate the 4Cs of content, communication, cognition and culture. It recommends rethinking reading materials by having students search for cultural context clues before and during reading. Several apps and websites are described that allow students to annotate texts, create multimedia projects, visualizations and collaborations based on literary works. These techniques aim to motivate students' learning beyond the classroom.
Zamora es una ciudad española ubicada en la región de Castilla y León. El documento menciona brevemente el nombre de la ciudad de Zamora pero no proporciona más detalles.
This document provides an overview of latent Gaussian models and the INLA methodology. It discusses how hierarchical Bayesian models can be represented as latent Gaussian models, with a latent Gaussian field and hyperparameters. Latent Gaussian models have computational benefits due to the sparse precision matrix encoding conditional independence. Several examples of latent Gaussian models are provided, including mixed effects models, time series models, and disease mapping models. The document outlines how the INLA method can be used for Bayesian computation with these types of models.

We talked about ways to think of your research in terms of metadata and tools that can help you organize, store, and share your work.
Let it go: Exposing digital collections for accessible and useful datajlhardes
How can you open data from a digital repository and make it discoverable, accessible, and combinable based on the researcher’s needs? And how do you usefully combine digital repository, library catalog, and library web site data so researchers can collect, re-purpose, and re-mix the data in support of their research? This snapshot, presented at the Digital Library Federation Forum in October 2014 discusses both work completed to expose repository data and plans to combine that data with library catalog and web site data to create a Solr-indexed data source that preserves context and provides thorough, useful, and sharable access to the information, collections, and resources at the Indiana University Libraries.

This document provides advice for students on how to do research from Xiao Qin, an associate professor at Auburn University. It outlines Qin's career path in research from undergraduate to current position. The document then gives 10 pieces of advice for being a successful research assistant, including managing your time well, developing intellectual discipline, being proactive, learning to communicate, developing an intellectual community, networking, choosing a good research problem, understanding faculty, studying successful people, and having a life outside of research. It directs students to Qin's webpage and slideshares for further resources.
Google is a proprietary search engine launched in 1998 that has become synonymous with online searching. However, using "Google" as a verb can undermine the inquiry process. While Google provides a wealth of easily accessible information, students must learn to ask meaningful questions, thoroughly investigate answers from multiple sources, and reflect critically on what they find. Teachers can help students develop digital literacy and guided practice in digital inquiry to move beyond superficial searching and gain a deeper understanding from their online research.
This document discusses using Web 2.0 tools to support collaborative learning in science. It begins by reviewing common science practices like note-taking, concept mapping, data collection and analysis that Web 2.0 tools could support. Examples of specific tools are provided for each practice. Considerations for selecting and implementing tools are also discussed. The document concludes by highlighting some emerging tools and providing resources for more information.

2. Goals for organizing research
• Track (and don’t lose) your research
• Use your research
• Share your research
Step 3:
Profit!
Step
2
Step
1: Data
… using metadata
3. What is this… metadata?
• Describes, categorizes, organizes
• Example
• Store, preserve, migrate
• Find, identify, and access later
– (sometimes much much later after it’s mixed in
with all sorts of other stuff that may or may not be
related)
4. Field data
• spreadsheets, proprietary software
flickr
6. Citations
• articles, books, web sites, digital collections, presentations
flickr flickr flickr flickr
7. Finding things later
• Based on feature
– File format
– Date
– File name
– Directory
structure
flickr
8. • Based on activity
–Writing a paper
–Conducting an experiment
–Analyzing a data set
–Creating a presentation
–Preparing a lesson/course
• No correct answer when it’s personal

9. Device Determinism
• Mobile device(s) > Main device
• Use apps available on all of your devices
– Evernote
– Zotero
– Google Drive
– Box
17. Tools (and people) exist to help
• Evernote – note-taking in the cloud
• Zotero – citation management
• Bamboo Dirt – more digital research tool options
than you will ever need
