Journalists are expected to produce multiple articles daily, impacting research time. Further training in information literacy has not been widely participated in since graduation. Recommendations focus on developing verification skills, efficient research strategies and aligning information literacy instruction with professional needs.
“Okay, this is just too weird”: Identifying outreach opportunities in FacebookElizabeth Edwards
The tremendous popularity of social networking sites like Facebook presents libraries with unique opportunities for reaching students. What many organizations fail to realize, however, is that the presence of professors, librarians, or parents in this social space is often perceived as intrusive, unwelcome, or just plain "weird". Researchers at a small university library decided to take a step back and ask a critical question: what do our students really want? That is, how do our students really use Facebook, and what part can the library play in this social environment? The library literature provides some insights; many of these recommendations, however, are from the perspective of librarians and do not reflect students' expectations, experiences, or preferences. Researchers conducted a mixed methods study of students' use of Facebook, focusing on the intersection of students' academic and social lives in this platform. Results indicated that students are uncertain about the library and librarians using Facebook, but are willing to consider accessing the library through this platform in the right circumstances. By listening to students' concerns and identifying standards for interaction, the researchers made recommendations for restructuring the library's Facebook initiatives. This panel will offer an overview of this study and its implications for library outreach efforts in Facebook. This panel will explore the conflict between the literature's best practices and students' expectations for library behavior in Facebook. A discussion of the library's experiences in implementing and refining its Facebook campaign will facilitate a broader consideration of the opportunities social networking sites present for libraries.
Study results from Dulcinea Media showed that middle and high school students were not adequately prepared to effectively do research online. This covers the study results as well as steps through the process of teaching students proper online research techniques.
This document summarizes a study on the information literacy (IL) skills and professional development of paraprofessional frontline staff in an academic library. Through interviews with 5 paraprofessionals, the study found they develop IL skills through communities of practice, trusting relationships with colleagues, and ad hoc learning on the job or by consulting Google. The study recommends fostering collaborative work environments and providing active, authentic training tailored to individual needs to further develop paraprofessionals' IL skills and knowledge.
Predatory Open Access Journals: Academic Beware!Anne-Wil Harzing
Provides an overview of my research into predatory open access journals, discussing their key characteristics and providing recommendations for academics to avoid them.
The document discusses why information literacy skills are not a more essential part of education curriculums. It notes that many students enter college feeling confident in their ability to evaluate websites but librarians estimate that only 2% actually have advanced skills. The document outlines several models and terms related to information literacy and argues that information literacy skills are important for efficiency, academic achievement, decision making, citizenship, and lifelong learning. It suggests information literacy skills need to be developed early and calls for institutional commitment to fully integrate information literacy into education.
Blogbrary: Blogs and their place within academic librariesFacebird McSweeney
The document discusses a study on the use of blogs within academic libraries. It summarizes the methodology, which involved interviews with librarians who maintain library blogs. The study examined how the blogs are used as tools, the practical aspects of maintaining a blog, and how effective the blogs are. It concludes that library blogs would benefit from a clearer purpose, more administrative support, engaging content, and focus on increasing interaction to build communities within the libraries.
The Transition Years: Evaluating Info Lit Skills from High School to College-...Imagine Easy Solutions
This document summarizes research on the transition of information literacy skills from high school to college. It finds that high school students are often not given enough time for in-depth research and are told what to learn rather than conducting self-directed research. As a result, many students struggle with tasks like developing search strategies, evaluating sources, and citing sources properly when they enter college. The document outlines strategies that high schools and colleges can use to better collaborate on information literacy instruction and help smooth students' transition to college-level research expectations.
The document evaluates online reference sources for use in an elementary school. It discusses criteria for evaluating sources, including authority, scope, treatment, format, and special features. Several sources are reviewed - Grolier Online, World Book Online, and NetTrekker. World Book Online is highly recommended for its age-appropriate content and links to state curriculum standards. Grolier Online and NetTrekker are also worthwhile options for their additional educational resources.
Finding Research Resources on Human Resource ManagementHeather Hopkins
This document provides resources and guidance for conducting research on human resource management. It outlines steps for developing a research project such as identifying the main topic and questions. It then describes various information sources such as the NAU online library, scholarly articles, databases, and books. Criteria are presented for evaluating source credibility, including whether sources are peer-reviewed. Specific databases like EBSCO, ProQuest, and ABI/Inform are highlighted for searching business and HR topics. Additional resources like organizations' websites, social media, and librarian assistance are also mentioned.

RATIONALE FOR THIS ETEXT
I’ve taught research methods in two departments at SAU and at several other universities. In doctoral programs that I’ve been involved with, a comprehensive research methods textbook was an absolute necessity. However, I have found that for master’s level students, beginners in terms of research, such texts have far too much extraneous information that simply will not be used. You spend around $100 for a text which you will eventually judge as not really appropriate. Continuing criticism of these textbooks has led me to the decision to write one that is tailored to the specifics of this class, EDUC 6003 – Educational Research. I’ve attempted to make this more reader friendly and to eschew obfuscation, the fundamental stuff of which much educational material is structured. Digest that last sentence and see why I want to simplify.
Fundamentally, what I seek to do is teach a basic course in which students will achieve in-depth mastery rather than an advanced course in which you’d have a more superficial grasp of a broader range of information. I think that this can be done best by limiting the breadth of reading and supplementing that with completion of a pilot study. I am convinced that you will have an excellent grasp of educational research once you complete the requirements of this.
The document provides guidelines for students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) regarding academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism. It discusses what constitutes plagiarism and other violations of academic integrity such as cheating. It outlines best practices for citing sources, paraphrasing, summarizing, quoting, collaborating on assignments, and writing code. The document emphasizes the importance of doing original work and giving proper attribution to the ideas and words of others. It notes that violations of academic integrity can result in failure on assignments, failure of courses, suspension, or expulsion from MIT. The goal of the handbook is to ensure all MIT students understand and uphold the high standards of academic integrity expected at the Institute.

Association rule mining is used to find relationships between items in transaction data. It identifies rules that can predict the occurrence of an item based on other items purchased together frequently. Some key metrics used to evaluate rules include support, which measures how frequently an itemset occurs; confidence, which measures how often items in the predicted set occur given items in the predictor set; and lift, which compares the confidence to expected confidence if items were independent. An example association rule evaluated is {Milk, Diaper} -> {Beer} with support of 0.4, confidence of 0.67, and lift of 1.11.
This document discusses clustering, which is the task of grouping data points into clusters so that points within the same cluster are more similar to each other than points in other clusters. It describes different types of clustering methods, including density-based, hierarchical, partitioning, and grid-based methods. It provides examples of specific clustering algorithms like K-means, DBSCAN, and discusses applications of clustering in fields like marketing, biology, libraries, insurance, city planning, and earthquake studies.
Classification is a data analysis technique used to predict class membership for new observations based on a training set of previously labeled examples. It involves building a classification model during a training phase using an algorithm, then testing the model on new data to estimate accuracy. Some common classification algorithms include decision trees, Bayesian networks, neural networks, and support vector machines. Classification has applications in domains like medicine, retail, and entertainment.
The document discusses the assumptions and properties of ordinary least squares (OLS) estimators in linear regression analysis. It notes that OLS estimators are best linear unbiased estimators (BLUE) if the assumptions of the linear regression model are met. Specifically, it assumes errors have zero mean and constant variance, are uncorrelated, and are normally distributed. Violation of the assumption of constant variance is known as heteroscedasticity. The document outlines how heteroscedasticity impacts the properties of OLS estimators and their use in applications like econometrics.
This document provides an introduction to regression analysis. It discusses that regression analysis investigates the relationship between dependent and independent variables to model and analyze data. The document outlines different types of regressions including linear, polynomial, stepwise, ridge, lasso, and elastic net regressions. It explains that regression analysis is used for predictive modeling, forecasting, and determining the impact of variables. The benefits of regression analysis are that it indicates significant relationships and the strength of impact between variables.
MYCIN was an early expert system developed at Stanford University in 1972 to assist physicians in diagnosing and selecting treatment for bacterial and blood infections. It used over 600 production rules encoding the clinical decision criteria of infectious disease experts to diagnose patients based on reported symptoms and test results. While it could not replace human diagnosis due to computing limitations at the time, MYCIN demonstrated that expert knowledge could be represented computationally and established a foundation for more advanced machine learning and knowledge base systems.
The document discusses expert systems, which are computer applications that solve complex problems at a human expert level. It describes the characteristics and capabilities of expert systems, why they are useful, and their key components - knowledge base, inference engine, and user interface. The document also outlines common applications of expert systems and the general development process.
The Dempster-Shafer Theory was developed by Arthur Dempster in 1967 and Glenn Shafer in 1976 as an alternative to Bayesian probability. It allows one to combine evidence from different sources and obtain a degree of belief (or probability) for some event. The theory uses belief functions and plausibility functions to represent degrees of belief for various hypotheses given certain evidence. It was developed to describe ignorance and consider all possible outcomes, unlike Bayesian probability which only considers single evidence. An example is given of using the theory to determine the murderer in a room with 4 people where the lights went out.
A Bayesian network is a probabilistic graphical model that represents conditional dependencies among random variables using a directed acyclic graph. It consists of nodes representing variables and directed edges representing causal relationships. Each node contains a conditional probability table that quantifies the effect of its parent nodes on that variable. Bayesian networks can be used to calculate the probability of events occurring based on the network structure and conditional probability tables, such as computing the probability of an alarm sounding given that no burglary or earthquake occurred but two neighbors called.
This document discusses knowledge-based agents in artificial intelligence. It defines knowledge-based agents as agents that maintain an internal state of knowledge, reason over that knowledge, update their knowledge based on observations, and take actions. Knowledge-based agents have two main components: a knowledge base that stores facts about the world, and an inference system that applies logical rules to deduce new information from the knowledge base. The document also describes the architecture of knowledge-based agents and different approaches to designing them.
A rule-based system uses predefined rules to make logical deductions and choices to perform automated actions. It consists of a database of rules representing knowledge, a database of facts as inputs, and an inference engine that controls the process of deriving conclusions by applying rules to facts. A rule-based system mimics human decision making by applying rules in an "if-then" format to incoming data to perform actions, but unlike AI it does not learn or adapt on its own.
This document discusses formal logic and its applications in AI and machine learning. It begins by explaining why logic is useful in complex domains or with little data. It then describes logic-based approaches to AI that use symbolic reasoning as an alternative to machine learning. The document proceeds to explain propositional logic and first-order logic, noting how first-order logic improves on propositional logic by allowing variables. It also mentions other logics and their applications in areas like automated discovery, inductive programming, and verification of computer systems and machine learning models.
The document discusses production systems, which are rule-based systems used in artificial intelligence to model intelligent behavior. A production system consists of a global database, set of production rules, and control system. The rules fire to modify the database based on conditions. Different control strategies are used to determine which rules fire. Production systems are modular and allow knowledge representation as condition-action rules. Examples of applications in problem solving are provided.
The document discusses game playing in artificial intelligence. It describes how general game playing (GGP) involves designing AI that can play multiple games by learning the rules, rather than being programmed for a specific game. The document outlines how the minimax algorithm is commonly used for game playing, involving move generation and static evaluation functions to search game trees and determine the best move by maximizing or minimizing values at each level.

A study on “impact of artificial intelligence in covid19 diagnosis”Dr. C.V. Suresh Babu
Although the lungs are one of the most vital organs in the body, they are vulnerable to infection and injury. COVID-19 has put the entire world in an unprecedented difficult situation, bringing life to a halt and claiming thousands of lives all across the world. Medical imaging, such as X-rays and computed tomography (CT), is essential in the global fight against COVID-19, and newly emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are boosting the power of imaging tools and assisting medical specialists. AI can improve job efficiency by precisely identifying infections in X-ray and CT images and allowing further measurement. We focus on the integration of AI with X-ray and CT, both of which are routinely used in frontline hospitals, to reflect the most recent progress in medical imaging and radiology combating COVID-19.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Some say if you
want success sur-
round yourself with successful
people. I say if you want true and
lasting success surround yourself
with people of integrity and that was
you people… it is all because of you
people this initiative has been going
month after month. Here comes
April, and the first of April is the day
we remember what we are the other
364 days of the year. Every month,
when I work with a particular college
faculties for creating the content, I
feel like learning new things, which
reminds me Michelangelo quote
“Every block of stone has a statue
inside it and it is the task of the
sculptor to discover it”. For the cam-
pus connect column this month, I
am unable to create as I planned for
almost a month, but it has been
completed within a couple of hours
by KRMMC team, which gives me a
lesson “Meticulous planning not
necessarily yield success, some-
times rapid decisions will do..”

The
Dubakoor, as such there is no meaning
in any of our Dictionaries, it was then
defined by Goundmani in Tamil mov-
ies, for those things are of not worthy,
fake, cheat and doing a false promotion.
When there is nothing but you exagger-
ate to an extent where people believe
you. Today, using our faculties‟ pressure
towards publishing research papers in
Journals, these Dubakoor Journal Publi-
cations become “quick” money minting
business model, which is generally
called predatory journals.
Predatory journal
A predatory journal is a publication that
actively asks researchers for manu-
scripts. They have no peer review sys-
tem and no true editorial board and are
often found to publish ordinary or even
worthless papers for a huge publication
charges.
Why do academics publish in such
journals?
Today in research environments, there
is usually more value for quantity over
quality. Appointments and promotion
of faculties is based largely on their
number of publications. Predatory jour-
nals have helped many fake researchers
to prosper.
What is the harm caused by predatory
journals?
Predatory and low-quality journals
corrupt the literature. Today Computer
science has been particularly hit hard,
with journals now devoted to unscien-
tific processes. Peer review is at the
heart of academic evaluation. Publishing
without peer review [while pretending
that peer review was done] gives poor
and ordinary faculties a chance for ap-
pointments and promotions which
should have gone for a dedicated re-
searchers.
Reliability check
Are you unsure if an email invitation is from a predatory pub-
lisher or a legitimate one?
Jeffrey Beall, a librarian at the University of Colorado Denver,
had compiled lists of "potential, possible, or probable preda-
tory" journals and publishers. An anonymous individual has
taken on the responsibility of preserving Beall‟s list and up-
dating it when potentially new predatory journals and pub-
lishers are identified. Find it here:
https://beallslist.weebly.com/
Note: These lists are by no means comprehensive and authoritative.
They are designed to help authors, but are not the final authority on
this topic. The lists are frequently updated, but all authors should
conduct their own due diligence to reach their own conclusions
“It's important to
realize that
publishing open
access does not
make a publisher
predatory, their
bad behavior
does. Predatory
publishers exploit
new publishing
models by
claiming to be
legitimate open-
access publishing
operations”
Do you or your colleagues
know the journal?
Can you easily identify and
contact the publisher?
Is the journal clear about
the type of peer review it
uses?
Are articles indexed in ser-
vices that you use?
Is it clear what fees will be
charged?
Do you recognise the edi-
torial board?
Is the publisher a member
of a recognised industry
initiative (COPE,DOAJ,
OASPA, etc.)?
Dr. C.V. Suresh Babu
How to find out a given journal is predatory or not?
It needs a systematic inquire... For example, some people think any
journal from an unknown publisher, or a journal that charges for pub-
lication, is necessarily predatory. That is not necessarily correct. The
important thing is to dig deeper and find ….the quality of submitted
manuscripts….and its standards.
Beall‟s criteria for identification of predatory journals and publishers
No single individual is identified as specific journal‟s editor with
no formal editorial/review board or the same editorial board for
more than one journal.
The editor and/or review board members do not have academic
expertise in the journal‟s field.
Provides insufficient information or hides information about au-
thor fees, offering to publish an author‟s paper and later sending
an unanticipated „surprise‟ invoice.
No proper indexing.
The name of a journal is unrelated with the journal‟s mission.
The name of a journal does not adequately reflect its origin (e.g. a
journal with the word „European‟ or „International‟ in its name
where neither the publisher, editor, nor any purported institutional
affiliate relates whatsoever to Europe or International).
The publisher has poorly maintained websites, including dead
links, prominent misspellings and grammatical errors on the web-
site.
The publisher makes unauthorised use of licensed images on their
website, taken from the open web, without permission or licensing
from the copyright owners.
Re-publish papers already published in other publications without
providing appropriate credits.
Use boastful language claiming to be a „leading publisher‟ even
though the publisher may only be a start-up or a novice organisa-
tion.
Provide minimal or no copyediting or proofreading of submis-
sions.
Publish papers that are not academic at all, e.g. essays by lay peo-
ple, polemical editorials, or pseudo-science.
Have a „contact us‟ page that only includes a web form or an email
address, and the publisher hides or does not reveal its location.
The publisher publishes journals that are excessively broad (e.g.
Journal of Computer Science) or combine two or more fields not
normally treated together (e.g. International Journal of Computers,
Information and Technology) in order to attract more articles and
gain more revenue from author fees.
“Faculty
pressure to
publish should
not be an
excuse to take
shortcuts and
publish in
predatory
journals.”
