Visibility and internationalization USARB Through Institutional Repository [Resursă electronică] : Expoziţie / Bibl. Şt. a Univ. de Stat "Alecu Russo" din Bălţi ; realizare: Igor Afatin, Lina Mihaluţa, Tatiana Prian. - Bălţi, 2018.
According to the Open Education Consortium, “sharing is probably the most basic characteristic of education: education is sharing knowledge, insights, and information with others, upon which new knowledge, skills, ideas, and understanding can be built." Whether they are purchased or freely acquired, librarians should be open to sharing their resources to everyone who wants to use them to enrich their lives through education. Open Education Resources (OER) include resources or tools that can be used and modified for free and without any legal or technical barriers, and when used properly can help foster a transparent culture of learning and engagement in our communities. In this webinar:
• Learn what Open Education Resources (OER) are and how they can be used to engender trust, generate rigorous learning opportunities, and potentially lead to smarter decision-making strategies.
• Discover a variety of OER and Open Access (OA) repositories to find accessible and authoritative resources, including textbooks, to use in curriculum.
• Acquire OER strategies for developing a variety of educational opportunities using a variety of formats.
•Understand various issues (e.g., GDPR) impacting OER in libraries.
This presentations have Online educational resources for Research purpose. These are include Databases, Thesis & Dissertations, E-Journals, Social networks etc.

Presentation on UCD Library case study and experience with patron driven acquisition given at Academic & Special Libraries Annual Seminar, February 27, 2014 in Dublin, Ireland.
Identified open access resources such as open access archives, open access books, open access journals, open access courseware, open access search engine and open source software and its actual usefulness in LIS teaching & learning process
This workshop will explore the skill sets for scholarly
communication including questions about future
requirements, the language we are using in this space and,
beyond skills, what type of people are suited to different
aspects of librarianship. Scholarly communication requires
people who are able to be flexible in their approach, rather
than ‘rule followers’, which may mean a fundamental shift
in the library workforce into the future. Working collectively,
the session will consider the implications for upskilling our
‘legacy’ workforce.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

OPEN ACCESS FOR RESEARCH
4. OPEN ACCESS FOR RESEARCH
Open Access....
Maximises the access to the research findings;
Increases research impact to a wider readership;
Expands shared knowledge across scientific field;
Make your research output more visible to researchers
elsewhere and make research from elsewhere more
accessible;
Universities and Research Institutions afford to subscribe to
a fraction of those journals, that means that research is
having only a fraction of its potential usage and impact
Increases the citation impact of the author;
Over time increases the Journal Impact Factor (?)
5. WHAT ELSE DO RESEARCHERS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OA?
What OA journals exist in your research field?
- Open Science Directory, BioMed Central, PloS, DOAJ ...
What Institutional Repository your institution use and
how a researchers can benefit from it?
- UJDigispace; VUT’s DigiResearch
Publishing in subscription-based journals, can limit your
readership (Science Direct; Wiley Online, SpringerLink, etc.)
Publishing your pre-print article in OA repositories can
enlarge your readership and citation impact: Arxiv.org;

Deposit your post-prints in a OA Repository:
UJDigispace, VUT’s DigiResearch ....
As a Researcher you have an option to publish in
Accredited Open Access Journals (AOAJSA)

do not replace the copyright, which remains with the
copyright holder.

Social Media can help Researchers:
Promote their research; Connect with other
researchers & share resources
47. HOW SOCIAL MEDIA CAN HELP RESEARCHERS?
Making Research Publications available in an Open Access
Repository is not enough! (Kelly, 2012)
Social media provides opportunities for the “connected
researchers” to engage more effectively with their peers and
raise the visibility of their research outputs which can help in
enhancing citations of their papers and implementation of
the ideas. Source
The use of Blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Social media sharing
tools such as Slideshare and research profiling services
such as LinkedIn, Academia.edu, Mendeley to develop
successful research collaborations
