Predatory publishing is a relatively recent phenomenon that seems to be exploiting some key features of the open access publishing model, sustained by collecting APCs that are far less than those found in legitimate open access journals. This CME aims to introduce to the participants on the phenomenon of predatory journals, why they continue to thrive, characteristics that are suggestive of a predatory journal, and how one can take step to minimize the risk of faling into predatory journal publication

Introduction to research methodology.pptxahmedmcjdu
Introduction to research methodology. Research methodology is a structured and scientific approach used to collect, analyze, and interpret quantitative or qualitative data to answer research questions or test hypotheses. A research methodology is like a plan for carrying out research and helps keep researchers on track by limiting the scope of the research. Several aspects must be considered before selecting an appropriate research methodology, such as research limitations and ethical concerns that may affect your research.
The research methodology section in a scientific paper describes the different methodological choices made, such as the data collection and analysis methods, and why these choices were selected. The reasons should explain why the methods chosen are the most appropriate to answer the research question. A good research methodology also helps ensure the reliability and validity of the research findings. There are three types of research methodology—quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method, which can be chosen based on the research objectives.
Moreover, A research methodology describes the techniques and procedures used to identify and analyze information regarding a specific research topic. It is a process by which researchers design their study so that they can achieve their objectives using the selected research instruments. It includes all the important aspects of research, including research design, data collection methods, data analysis methods, and the overall framework within which the research is conducted. While these points can help you understand what is research methodology, you also need to know why it is important to pick the right methodology.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
2. 1. Case study fields remain, but with metadata and 5 pages
2. Underpinning research must be 2* quality and published >2000
3. Impacts must occur between Aug 2013 and July 2020
4. Minimum 2 case studies up to 20 FTE, then 1 per 15 FTE
5. Impacts from a body of research (e.g. collaborative project) must
demonstrate substantive contribution from institution
6. Public engagement is a pathway, not an impact
7. Underpinning research 2* as a body with quality justification
8. All evidence submitted with case studies and independently
verifiable (testimonials should be based on evidence, not opinion)
9. Continuation case studies have 1) no significant new underpinning
research, AND 2) similar impacts and beneficiaries to those in 2014
10. A researcher’s outputs & impact can be submitted to different UoAs
11. Panel A will treat qualitative evidence and continuation case studies
without prejudice but consultation revealed disciplinary biases

3. What made a 4*case study in REF2014?
Based on PhD research by Bella Reichard @BellaReichard based
on quantitative analysis of 217 and qualitative analysis of 180 of
the highest and lowest scoring cases, spread across Panels A, B,
C and D

5. Quantitative linguistic analysis
1. Highly-rated case studies provided specific,
high-magnitude and well-evidenced
articulations of significance and reach
• 84% of high-scoring cases articulated significant and far-reaching
benefits, compared to 32% of low-scoring cases, which typically focused
on pathway
Phrases more common in high-
scoring:
• Significance and reach (specific and
high): in England and, in the US, the
UK’s, millions of, long-term, the
government’s, the department of,
the House of Commons, for the first
time, prime minister, select
committee
Phrases more common in low-scoring:
• Significance and reach (non-specific or low): a number
of, a range, nationally and internationally, in local, of
local, the north, city council, policy and practice, an
impact on, impact on the, the impact
• Pathways to impact: has been disseminated, disseminated
through, dissemination of, been disseminated, and
workshops, the event, the book
• Beneficiaries (not benefits): and community, practitioners
and, group of, members of the
Qualitative analysis
6. • 97% of high-scoring cases clearly linked the
underpinning research to claimed impacts,
compared to 50% of low-scoring case studies
• 42% high-scoring policy cases described policy and
implementation, compared to 17% in low
Phrases more common in high-scoring
• Attribution between research and
impact: cited in the, (was) used to
inform, to improve the, led to the,
resulting in, showing that, was
subsequently, produced by, reported in,
evidence for, cited in, led by
2. Highly-rated case studies established
links between research (cause) and
impact (effect) convincingly
Phrases more common in low-scoring
• Research outputs/process: the paper, peer-
reviewed, journal of, et al, research project, this
research has, by Dr, of Dr, research team
• Attribution between research and pathways:

Qualitative analysis
• Coh-metrix analysis shows higher-scoring cases had more explicit causal connections between
ideas and more logical connective words (and, or, but) than low-scoring cases
7. 3. Highly-rated case studies were
easy to understand and well
written
• Low-scoring cases more likely to have
academic phrasing: in relation to, in

• Flesch Reading Ease score, out of 100,
was 30.0 on average for 4* and 27.5 on
average for 1*/2* (all “college-graduate”
difficulty). Panels C & D high-scoring
case studies significantly easier to read
than low-scorers
• High scoring cases had more sub-
headings (especially pronounced when
comparing high to low cases in Panel D)
• High-scoring cases used more direct, plain language, had fewer
expressions of uncertainty or hedging statements, and were less likely to
contain unsubstantiated or vague use of adjectives to describe impacts
