Cassidy "Case Study: Supporting Researcher Impact and Efficiency"

Traditional bibliometric methods of evaluating academic research, such as journal impact factors and article citations, have been supplemented in the past 5-10 years by the development of altmetrics (alternative metrics or article level metrics). Altmetrics measures impact of research, data and publications, such as references in data and knowledge bases, article views, downloads and mentions in social media and news media. This presentation gives a brief background to altmetrics and demonstrates how Rhodes University librarians are using social media to raise the visibility of the research output of their institution. (Rhodes University is in Grahamstown, South Africa)

Gathering Evidence to Demonstrate Impact

IUPUI

I apply Ranganathan's 5 laws of library science to altmetrics, as part of a holistic research impact support service. I discuss what altmetrics are, what they measure, their uses throughout the research lifecycle, and where you can get them. I then apply Ranganathan's 4th law, saving the time of the user, to the harvesting of altmetrics by research information systems, embedding them at the point of need. The challenge of altmetrics is to change our concept of what an institutional repository is, from a simple container of research outputs to a smart system that harvests and catalogs a much broader range of output and impact data elements.

Tuesday, 18 March 2014 from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM (AWST) Digital Humanities Australasia #Altac careers have been described as off the tenure track, but within the academic orbit. These positions are serviced by “hybrid humanities scholars” who work in a diverse range of institutions including universities, cultural heritage bodies, libraries, museums, academic publishing, and the public sector. Roles often include a combination of administration, project management, teaching and research work. This free, 3-hour workshop explored strategies and tools to help PhD candidates and early career researchers imagine and build alternative academic careers. It included a panel session with several practicing “alt-academics”, hands-on activities and plenty of lively discussion and debate. The workshop was facilitated by Jo Hawkins (PhD Candidate, University of Western Australia) and Dr Jason Ensor (Research & Technical Development Manager, Digital Humanities, University of Western Sydney). Panel members included: Sarah McQuade Director - Community, Learning & Discovery State Library of WA @sarah_mcquade Ingrid Mason eResearch Analyst, Intersect Australia Data specialist, Australian National Data Service @1n9r1d Daniel Powell PhD candidate, Digital Humanities University of Victoria, Canada @djp2025 http://djp2025.com/ Jonathon Hutchinson Researcher and Lecturer, Online Media University of Sydney @dhutchman http://jonathonhutchinson.com/

This slide deck was presented at the 2017 ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting. It provided a general overview of the topic and addresses the following learning objectives include: (1) Understand the potential and limitations of digital dissemination of research; (2) Understand relevant health content regulations, guidelines and ethics, (3) Understand the concept of and tools for measuring the results of one’s digital efforts, and (4) Understand the concept of and tools for online reputation management.

Disseminating Research and Managing Your Online Reputation

Katja Reuter, PhD

In the rapidly changing world of research and scholarly communications, researchers are faced with a fast growing range of options to publicly disseminate, review, and discuss research—options which will affect their long-term reputation. Early career scholars must be especially thoughtful in choosing how much effort to invest in dissemination and communication, and what strategies to use. Dr. Micah Altman briefly reviews a number of bibliometric and scientometric studies of quantitative research impact, a sampling of influential qualitative writings advising this area, and an environmental scan of emerging researcher profile systems. Based on this review, and on professional experience on dozens of review panels, Dr. Altman suggests some steps early career researchers may consider when disseminating their research and participating in public reviews and discussion.

#Altac careers have been described as off the tenure track, but within the academic orbit. These positions are serviced by “hybrid humanities scholars” who work in a diverse range of institutions including universities, cultural heritage bodies, libraries, museums, academic publishing, and the public sector. Roles often include a combination of administration, project management, teaching and research work. Workshop outline: This free, 3-hour workshop will explore strategies and tools to help PhD candidates and early career researchers imagine and build alternative academic careers. It will include a panel session with several practicing “alt-academics”, hands-on activities and plenty of lively discussion and debate. We’ll be asking questions such as: - How can PhD students better locate their research and work in an employable context? - How can PhD students prepare for alternative academic careers during and after their candidature? - What are the main opportunities and challenges associated with alternative academic careers? Date: Tuesday 18 March, 2014 Time: 9:00 – 12:00 Location: CLT, Ground Floor Physics Building, UWA Crawley Campus Who should attend this workshop? Postgraduate students and early career researchers. Prerequisites: No prior knowledge is required. Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop or a tablet. About the presenters: The workshop will be facilitated by Jo Hawkins (PhD Candidate, University of Western Australia) and Dr Jason Ensor Research & Technical Development Manager, Digital Humanities, University of Western Sydney).
