Creation of visualizations based on Linked DataAlvaro Graves
ย
A common task with any relatively large amount of data is to create visual representations that help users to make sense of such data and observe trends that otherwise would be hard for them to appreciate. The creation of these visual- izations usually requires some knowledge in a programming language, making it difficult for non-technical savvy users to create visualizations. In this paper we present Visualbox, a system that makes it easier for non-programmers to create web visualizations based on Linked Data. These visualiza- tions can be accessed by any modern web browser and can be easily embedded in web pages and blogs. We describe how people can create visualizations using Visualbox and we show examples of work done by real users. Finally we present a study that shows that Visualbox makes it easier for users to create Linked Data-based visualizations.

The Pros and Cons of Open Educational ResourcesMuffin1927
ย
This document discusses the pros and cons of open educational resources (OERs). It notes that while OERs improve access to educational materials, their quality is not always guaranteed and instructors must carefully review content. OERs can be misunderstood as providing official degrees. However, they offer minimal or no costs and allow peer review and sharing of best practices worldwide. While OERs increase accessibility, reliable internet access remains a challenge in some areas. Licensing terms can confuse users and intellectual property issues are a concern, though OERs reach wider audiences. Future challenges include ensuring the sustainability of OER sites and conducting more research on learning outcomes.
OER (Open Educational Resources) can make higher education more accessible to broader populations by providing free educational content online. However, there are also challenges to consider, such as some populations still lacking computer access, authors not consistently updating materials leading to outdated content, and licensing restrictions potentially slowing the presentation of online materials. OER aims to enhance education quality through collaborative improvement and sharing of resources, but its free and open nature could reduce paid college enrollment if alternatives become too readily available.
Advantages and disadvantages of open educational resourcesEric Davishahl
ย
Open educational resources (OERs) have several potential advantages including flexibility for instructors, opportunities for collaboration, and increased access to education globally. However, OERs also have disadvantages such as inconsistent quality, availability across disciplines, and reliance on the internet presenting access issues for some students. Additionally, the time it takes faculty to incorporate OERs may be unrealistic and ongoing maintenance of web-based resources is uncertain.
Open Educational Resources: Advantages & DisadvantagesTraci Taylor
ย
Open educational resources (OERs) are teaching and learning materials that can be freely used and reused without permission. OERs are available in the public domain or have an open license allowing reuse as long as the creator is attributed. Examples of OERs include textbooks, courses, images, and videos. OERs provide access to educational resources for free, saving students money while allowing universal access to education. However, the quality of OERs can be harder to determine and concerns exist regarding long-term funding and access to necessary equipment.

The document discusses strategies for advocating for open access repositories more successfully. Some key points include:
- Cultural change is needed to increase repository adoption, which requires engaging academics and addressing their concerns.
- While setup is technically simple, populating repositories is challenging and requires advocacy efforts.
- Librarians are well-positioned to advocate due to existing communication channels with academics, but advocacy approaches need to be tailored to each institution.
- Targeting administrators, opinion leaders, and research funders can help drive cultural change more than focusing solely on top academics.

Going Open: Lessons Learned from the Open Course LibraryTom Caswell
ย
This document summarizes lessons learned from developing an Open Course Library (OCL) in Washington state. The OCL aims to provide free open educational resources for 81 high-enrollment college courses to improve access and lower costs. In Phase 1, faculty expressed concerns about using different websites and learning management systems. In Phase 2, collaboration improved by using Google Docs in one shared website. Overall, open resources can help more students learn better by increasing access to customizable, scalable materials. Challenges remain in tracking adoption, addressing copyright issues, and developing versioning and publishing tools to support open content.
Changing the Structure of Scholarly Publishing: Open Access, Open Archives, a...John McDonald
ย
Traditional scholarly publishing involves commercial and society journals with editorial boards and peer review. New publishing models like open access, open archives, and author self-archiving have emerged due to electronic publishing advantages and rising journal costs. Open access involves free access to content while retaining traditional structures. Open archives allow free depositing of articles in repositories. Author self-archiving allows authors to publish their own research freely online. These new models shift costs from consumers to producers and provide quick publication but quality assurance and discoverability are concerns that need to be addressed for viability. A mix of models is predicted to continue with disadvantages regarding organization, discoverability, quality, and access.

This document outlines ways a librarian can help instructors address issues that arise mid-semester in online courses. It provides examples of common problems like students misunderstanding assignments, unengaged discussions, weak citations, and more. For each issue, it suggests solutions the librarian can implement like embedding library tutorials, research guides, citation instructions, and exemplars directly into the course. The goal is quick fixes to get courses back on track by directing students to tailored library resources. The librarian acknowledges limitations but aims to develop reusable solutions and track data to expand support over time.
Business, Management and Economics Residency Library SessionSarah Morehouse
ย
Here are the slides from the library session at the Business, Management and Economics Residency on 9/24/16 at the Empire State College Genesee Valley Center.
This document discusses evaluating information sources for business courses. It outlines the differences between primary, secondary, and tertiary sources. Primary sources are raw materials like annual reports and interviews that are directly related to the topic. Secondary sources are analyses and discussions of primary sources, like scholarly articles. Tertiary sources summarize and synthesize other sources, like textbooks. The document provides guidance on identifying scholarly sources, assessing statistics and visuals, and determining source credibility based on author, date, intended purpose and audience. Students complete activities to find examples of different source types to practice these skills.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
ย
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
