Research Skills Session 12: Improve your Research Visibility and ImpactNader Ale Ebrahim
Do you know “Over 43% of ISI papers have never ever received any citations?” (nature.com/top100, 2014). Publishing a high quality paper in scientific journals is only halfway towards receiving citation in the future. The rest of the journey is dependent on disseminating the publications via proper utilization of the “Research Tools”. Proper tools allow the researchers to increase the research impact and citations for their publications.
How to Improve Research Visibility and Impact: Session 6, Document publishingNader Ale Ebrahim
Unpublished papers, white papers, datasets, and teaching materials can be a source for increasing the author’s visibility. Getting author's documents (the full range of work produced by scholars and researchers) under control is a key driver to enhance research visibility and impact. With document and data publishing tools, authors can put all of their key research outputs online where they're immediately accessible to the researchers that need them. Previous studies have found that papers with publicly available datasets receive a higher number of citations than similar studies without available data. In addition, new research has found that by putting your research data online, you’ll become up to 30% more highly cited than if you kept your data hidden. In this workshop I will elaborate the advantages of sharing research data and introduce some relevant “Research Tools” for document publishing.
How to Increase the Visibility and Impact of your ResearchNader Ale Ebrahim
Why would a researcher or a research department want to increase the visibility of their research? It can be as simple as wanting to improve their university ranking or academic impact by gaining more views and citations for their research articles. However, others may wish to increase their visibility to attract more opportunities for collaboration or even to highlight their research impact on a larger society. It would be a disappointment if people who are interested in your work cannot fully access your research. Researchers have spent plenty of time and effort on writing their research for publication. Dissemination and improving an article's impact is an essential phase of the publication life cycle. However, most of the researchers stop their work after publication and do not give any thought about the importance of their research visibility and impact. In this webinar, you will find some tools that help you to achieve your goal to increase the visibility and impact of your research.

Bibliometrics is a statistical approach to analyze publication trends. The bibliometric approaches use quantitative parameters such as citation data from a large number of studies for evaluating literature, measures academic performance, factors that empower the contribution of studies in a specific research area and guide researchers towards selecting the hot topics and producing impactful studies. This presentation aims to identify and analyze documents in the field of industry 4.0, technology and operations management, to find a pathway for future research.
The number of scholarly articles published by African scientists has risen dramatically, in recent years. However, the impact of education, economic and societal sectors on research output by Africa-based institutes has received little attention from a Scientometrics perspective. Publishing a high quality paper in scientific journals is only halfway towards receiving impact and citation in the future. The rest of the journey is dependent on disseminating the publications via proper utilization of the “Research Tools”. This webinar will provide an overview about “Research Visibility and Impact in Africa” and introduce some techniques to increase the visibility and hence the impact of African scientists research work.
The number of citations a paper receives helps to determine the impact of your research. Even if your research is excellent, if no one finds your paper, it won’t be cited. Similar to a company for marketing a retail product, Academic Search Engine Optimization (ASEO) of your journal papers is important to market your research findings. ASEO is almost obligatory if you would like to increase readership of your papers, increase citations and acknowledgment and to create an overall stronger academic visibility, both offline and online. By optimizing your articles, you guarantee that your articles are indexed and gain a higher ranking in general and academic search engines, such as Google Scholar. This presentation provides guidelines on how to optimize scholarly literature for academic search engines like Google Scholar, in order to increase the article visibility and citations. The closer your paper is to the number one search result, the more likely it will be read.
Keywords (commonly called search terms), are the words that researchers enter into the database search box. Keywords search, help researchers to find relevant papers to their research interest. The researcher need to select appropriate alternative keywords to reach the maximum number of published documents. There are some tools for choosing the best set of keywords for a research. Dr. Nader has collected over 700 Research Tools that enable researchers to follow the correct path in research for producing high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency. The workshop concentrates on how to choose the right keywords for your research.

Ways to Increase Research Visibility, Citation, and H-indexNader Ale Ebrahim
H-index is a common index for assessing the output and impact of researchers, departments, and universities. H-index will increase by citation of academic papers that also can be influential in improving the university ranking. One of the key ways to increase citations is to expose the research output to the widest possible audience. Publishing a high quality paper in a scientific journal is only half the way of receiving citations in the future. The rest of the journey is advertising and disseminating the publications by using the proper “Research Tools”. Citations to an article strongly depend on the visibility, rather than the merit of the article. Researchers have spent plenty of time and effort on writing their research for publication. However, most of the researchers stop their work after publication. Dissemination and archiving an article is an essential phase of the publication life cycle. There are tools that help to increase citation, H-index and research visibility. Effective use of these tools, which will be elaborated in this webinar, can result in increased visibility and, thus, improve the paper citations, sequentially researcher H-index, and university ranking.

The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Citation Tracking: Enrich Research Visibility and ImpactNader Ale Ebrahim
Citation tracking is used to discover the most influential articles and how often researchers own published papers are cited. Citation tracking allows you to find out which bits of your work are appreciated and used by other academics. As a general rule, high quality articles attract a greater number of citations. There are some indexing services which keep track of citations; however, no single database covers all works that cite other works. Scopus, Web of Science (WOS), Google Scholar, ResearchGate, are some examples of Citation Tracking tools. In this webinar, I will introduce some important tools for tracking your scholarly output citations and know how often (and by whom) your paper has been cited already?
Higher education is increasingly becoming a global business. The main factor to distinguish between different universities is university ranking. Numerous university ranking systems directly or indirectly rely on research visibility and impact. The visibility for high quality research and publications are usually high. However, very few researchers may do high quality research that causes them to receive well-known awards like the Nobel Prize. The majority of researchers are doing moderate quality research, which needs to be promoted well for being visible and getting impact in the future. In this webinar, Nader elaborates the effect of research visibility and impact on university rankings and introduces some “Research Tools” which allows the researchers and universities to increase the research impact and visibility for their publications.
Finding research papers (resources) within a specific research area can be done based on many aspects, such as keywords set, subject area, journal name, author profile, and dominant institution or country. The most important aspect, is the selected keywords set. Researchers are usually spending a long time on the net to find their interesting papers and keeping them. Reference management software offer an easy way of finding relevant literature, collecting references, organizing them in a database, and insert citations works in a manuscript with proper citation style. The workshop concentrates on how to find and keep the right papers for your research interest.
How to Improve Research Visibility and Impact: Session 4, Online CVNader Ale Ebrahim

The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Writing for Impact: How to Prepare a Journal ArticleNader Ale Ebrahim
You should write an article not just to get an acceptance but also for the impact it’s going to have. Science is all about impact. However, researchers' first priority is to publish in a high ranked journal and they only think about the publication itself and do not give any thought about the importance of publication impact. Even if your research is excellent, if no one finds your paper, it won’t be recognized. By optimizing your articles, you guarantee that your articles are indexed and therefore will gain a higher ranking in general and academic search engines, such as Google Scholar. In this webinar, you will be introduced to some tools that will help you achieve your goal in preparing a manuscript with the highest possible chance of getting accepted and having an impact.
How to Improve Research Visibility and Impact: Session 8, Citation trackingNader Ale Ebrahim
Citation tracking is used to discover how many times a particular article has been cited by other articles.

Wikipedia is widely used by students during the research process. So, due to Wikipedia popularity, contributing to the Wikipedia website is one way of increasing research visibility and impact. In this workshop, I will try to explain about the ways of posting in Wikipedia and its effect on the research Altmetric score.
Researchers need tools to represent research backgrounds in a visual map, or in the text format. Some computer programs are used for bibliometric mapping. One of them is VOSviewer. The VOSviewer pays special attention to the graphical representation of bibliometric maps. Dr. Nader introduces some tools for visualizing a bibliometric data and explore literature from his Research Tools Mind Map. The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Writing for Impact: How to Prepare a Journal ArticleNader Ale Ebrahim
You should write an article not just to get an acceptance but also for the impact it’s going to have. Science is all about impact. However, researchers' first priority is to publish in a high ranked journal and they only think about the publication itself and do not give any thought about the importance of publication impact. Even if your research is excellent, if no one finds your paper, it won’t be recognized. By optimizing your articles, you guarantee that your articles are indexed and therefore will gain a higher ranking in general and academic search engines, such as Google Scholar. In this webinar, you will be introduced to some tools that will help you achieve your goal in preparing a manuscript with the highest possible chance of getting accepted and having an impact.
How to Improve Research Visibility and Impact: Session 8, Citation trackingNader Ale Ebrahim
Citation tracking is used to discover how many times a particular article has been cited by other articles. Citation tracking involves using citation data to measure the impact of an article and monitor the impact of research publications. Citation tracking lets you follow a particular author or paper and how it's being cited at present. Citation tracking allows you to find out which bits of your work are appreciated and used by other academics. There are a number of indexing services which keep track of citations. Example: Scopus, Web of Science (WOS), Google Scholar, ResearchGate, etc. In this workshop, I will introduce some important tools for tracking your scholarly output citations and know how often (and by whom) your paper has been cited already?.
Recently many Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools were developed to summarize and extract the highlighted points of documents. Such tools will assist the research to evaluate a paper content before full reading the entire document. In this workshop, Dr. Nader introduces some tools for reading a paper from his Research Tools Mind Map. The Research Tools enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and to ultimately produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
Maximizing Your Research Visibility and Impact: A Step-by-Step Guide Session ...Nader Ale Ebrahim
Research visibility and impact are essential for maximizing the reach of research and thus facilitating the advancement of knowledge and progress. One of the key ways to increase research visibility and impact is to expose the research output to the widest possible audience. Publishing a high-quality paper in a scientific journal is only half the way to receiving impact and citations in the future.

Research visibility and its Impact on University RankingsNader Ale Ebrahim
Numerous university ranking systems directly or indirectly rely on research visibility and impact. So, research visibility and impact play a major role in university rankings. The visibility for high-quality research and publications is usually high. However, very few researchers may do high-quality research that causes them to receive well-known awards like the Nobel Prize. The majority of researchers are doing moderate-quality research, which needs to be promoted well for being visible and getting an impact in the future. To improve the visibility and impact of research, universities should focus on several strategies such as online profile building, networking and collaboration, effective publication and dissemination channels, and social media engagement. These strategies help researchers to enhance their visibility and impact of research that, in turn, helps in improving the ranking of universities. In this webinar, Nader Ale Ebrahim (A Research Visibility and Impact Consultant) explains how research visibility and impact influence university rankings, as well as presents various "Research Tools" to assist researchers and universities to promote and advertise their publications, thereby increasing their research visibility and impact.

This informative webinar equips researchers with effective strategies and “Research Tools” to amplify the visibility of their work, ensuring it resonates with the right audience and garners the recognition it deserves. Moreover, by harnessing these techniques, researchers can also contribute to improving university rankings, as increased research visibility and impact positively influence institutional performance metrics. From ethical considerations to real-life case studies, participants will gain invaluable insights to enhance the impact of their research, leave a lasting imprint on their field, and foster academic growth for both themselves and their institutions.
Finding research papers (resources) within a specific research area can be done based on many aspects, such as keywords set, subject area, journal name, author profile, and dominant institution or country. The most important aspect, is the selected keywords set. Researchers are usually spending a long time on the net to find their interesting papers and keeping them. Reference management software offer an easy way of finding relevant literature, collecting references, organizing them in a database, and insert citations works in a manuscript with proper citation style. The workshop concentrates on how to find and keep the right papers for your research interest.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
