Perceived risks in social media use – a longitudinal study among university s...Jari Jussila
This document summarizes a longitudinal study on the perceived risks university students experience with social media use. A survey was conducted annually from 2014-2016 with 206 total respondents. The study found privacy-related risks were perceived more in recent years than previously. Results showed these risks were classified from most to least frequent: privacy concerns, negative impacts on studies, inappropriate content, addiction, cyberbullying, and false profiles. The conclusion recommends social media training for educators to help lower sociological barrier risks through discussing ethics, rules, and online culture with students.
Italian PhD students primarily study in isolation and interact infrequently with supervisors and other researchers. A survey of over 600 PhD students found they make limited use of digital services and social media provided by their institutions. While students use social media regularly in their personal lives, they primarily use it to search for literature and do not see it as a way to practice academic writing or network. Students have high expectations that social media could help them stay updated in their fields but low expectations it could improve critical discussion. Overall, students take a cautious approach to using social media for research, seeing it as a way to support existing practices rather than experiment with new ones.
Contextualized scientometrics: What's behind the numbers?Ludo Waltman
This document discusses contextualized scientometrics and outlines an agenda for the scientometric community. It begins by showing bibliometric indicators for top Chinese universities and explores what factors influence these numbers through techniques like identifying research areas and topics in citation networks. It argues that scientometrics should focus on contextualization over representation by making diverse statistics and information available rather than basing decisions solely on indicators. Open data sources like the Initiative for Open Citations and Dimensions platform can help accomplish this by providing open metadata. The agenda calls on scientometricians to promote responsible use of indicators, support open data initiatives, use open sources in research, and support open metadata as authors and reviewers.

This document summarizes the evolving landscape of bibliometric data sources and opportunities for bibliometric visualization. It discusses how alternative data sources like Dimensions, Crossref, and OpenCitations Corpus provide more open citation data than traditional sources like Web of Science and Scopus. While coverage varies, Dimensions and Crossref provide reasonably complete publication and citation data. Discrepancies between sources are due to reference inaccuracies and inconsistencies in citation matching. VOSviewer software supports network analysis and visualization using multiple data sources. The document calls for expanding open citation indexing to further open science.
COVID-19 and its implications for the scholarly communication systemLudo Waltman
COVID-19 has implications for the scholarly communication system by affecting dissemination, accessibility, quality control, and findability of research. The pandemic led to a large increase in preprint submissions as researchers sought rapid dissemination of COVID-19 findings. Preprint servers helped make research widely accessible. While traditional peer review was bypassed, some preprints received rapid or post-publication peer review. Open access publishing also increased accessibility. The value of preprint servers and next-generation search technologies was demonstrated, but literature databases not covering preprints may lose value. COVID-19 provides a strong argument for open access and shows preprints can play an important role in biomedical research dissemination.
This document compares several bibliographic data sources and finds substantial discrepancies between them. It analyzes the coverage of publications and citations in Web of Science, Scopus, Dimensions, and Crossref. Dimensions and Scopus have the most complete coverage of publications, while Crossref is incomplete due to closed or missing citations. Pairwise comparisons reveal millions of citations that are unique to each source. The causes of discrepancies include reference inaccuracies, versioning issues, and different matching algorithms. Examples demonstrate problems caused by group authors and supplements in Web of Science.

A scientometric perspective on university rankingNees Jan van Eck
This document discusses responsible use of university rankings. It summarizes a presentation given by Nees Jan van Eck of CWTS about their Leiden university ranking methodology. The presentation outlines principles for responsible ranking design, interpretation, and use. It emphasizes using transparent, field-normalized bibliometric indicators to measure research impact rather than composite scores. Comparisons should consider size and subject differences between universities. Ranks are less important than underlying indicator values. Non-research metrics are also important to consider.

This document discusses linking clinical trial publications to provide context. It describes a new Crossref feature that deposits clinical trial numbers (CTNs) referenced in articles and links them to other publications about the same clinical trial, including pre-results, results, and post-results articles. This allows anyone reading an article to pull a list of related clinical trials and publications with just a click. Linking related publications is important as it enables researchers to evaluate bias or selective reporting, and provides greater context for clinical trial results. Several publishers are already depositing CTN links, including BioMed Central, BMJ, NIHR, and PLOS.
This document summarizes a presentation on scientometric approaches to classification. It discusses:
- Bibliographic databases like Web of Science and Scopus and their coverage.
- Types of classification systems for scientific literature including mono-disciplinary vs multidisciplinary and journal-level vs publication-level classifications.

This document discusses the development of a cross-platform tracking component for course analytics. The component allows teachers and students to store, visualize, and export tracking data from courses to improve the teaching and learning process. It is an independent and interoperable tool that can track both common and specific data across different e-learning platforms. The tracking component uses LTI to integrate with platforms and allows customizable tracking of things like student attempts, time spent, objectives achieved, and more. Compared to other tools, it has more customizable tracking abilities and supports interoperability with both LMS and MOOC platforms. Future work aims to transform the component to use the Caliper framework to facilitate sharing and integrating tracking data across platforms.
The document describes a study conducted on designing game-like activities to engage adult learners in higher education.

This document describes a strategy to help engineering students improve their math skills and performance on exams. The strategy involved providing an extra weekly classroom session for students who had failed calculus exams multiple times, where they worked through practice problems with teacher supervision. Compared to a control group, these students had a lower dropout rate, fewer blank answers and higher average scores on exams, showing the strategy was effective in building their math abilities and confidence.
This document discusses leveraging chatbots to improve self-guided learning through conversational quizzes. A study was conducted with 23 computer science students who took multiple choice quizzes through a chatbot. The results found that students enjoyed using the chatbot for practice tests and felt it could help them engage more with the subject material. Most students would recommend using chatbots for other university subjects as well. Future work could expand the chatbot to include audio recordings and push notifications to further support learning.
The document describes a training method for capturing software requirements through role playing interviews. Students are divided into groups where they take turns acting as clients and interviewers. As clients, they develop project details and personality traits assigned by teachers. As interviewers, they must collect requirements from the clients. This exposes students to difficult client situations and improves their interviewing skills. Results found the role playing group had greater success collecting requirements than groups using traditional interviews.

In the (more than) ten years since the research area has been established, the challenges of contract cheating have moved from being solved by sole academics, to being processed through international research teams, national bodies, legal solutions and students themselves. The slides consider the international agenda behind contract cheating and the opportunities for further research work within this important field.
Lecture recording: what does it mean to be open? Jane Secker
This document summarizes a lecture on open educational practices regarding lecture recording. It finds that many universities do not have clear policies on intellectual property rights and lecture recording. Policies vary in their approaches to consent, third-party copyright, and open access. The research recommends that universities adopt minimum standards for policies, involve staff and students in policy development, clarify responsibilities for managing risks, and provide copyright guidance and support for open educational practices. Further research is needed on the relationship between institutional culture and risk tolerance as well as engaging academic staff in debates around openness.

Reliability vs. Authority: Credibility Assessment of Highschool StudentsAxel Maireder
This paper examines the practices Austrian high school students and teachers use to evaluate credibility of online information. It finds that students primarily use Google and Wikipedia to research information for school assignments, often ignoring other sources like books recommended by teachers. Students tend to only briefly scan the top search results from Google without considering additional search terms or going beyond the first page. Both students and teachers take for granted Internet use for schoolwork without guidance on evaluating information reliability. The study aims to understand how school and Internet contexts shape students' information practices and competencies.

This document outlines a proposed study on the impact of social media addiction on the academic performance of university students in Khulna, Bangladesh. The study will use a quantitative research design and survey methodology. A structured questionnaire will be administered to 200 students from Khulna University and Khulna University of Engineering and Technology to collect primary data on social media usage habits and academic performance. SPSS software will be used to analyze the data using statistical tests like correlation and regression to determine if social media addiction has a significant effect on students' grades. The results of the study could provide valuable insights for universities and help address issues related to social media distraction among students.
This document summarizes a longitudinal study conducted between 2012-2016 that investigated the risks university students perceive in using social media. A survey asked students in a knowledge management course about their social media use and risks. The study found students perceive greater risks from internal sources like sociological and psychological barriers rather than just technical or external risks emphasized in previous research. Teachers are advised to discuss social media ethics and norms with students to help lower sociological barrier-based risks.

EFFECTIVENESS OF SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS ON SERVING INFORMATION TO JOURNALISM ...BibliotecaFilipina
Social media promotes self-directed learning, which prepares students to search for answers and make decisions independently. When reinforced in a classroom setting, these social media skills can be guided and refined to produce better learning outcomes and critical awareness.
We Think Everywhere - Digital Languages and Creative Pedagogies - Workshop pr...Louise Lowings
The document summarizes a 3-year research project conducted by early childhood educators from the UK and Sweden exploring the use of digital technologies and creative pedagogies in early childhood settings. The project aims to understand both the risks and benefits of technology use with young children and identify strategies to make digital media a valuable learning tool. Key outcomes of the research include ensuring children have independence and ownership over content when using apps and integrating digital media with other materials in multimodal contexts.
The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak has changed
the conventional learning system to an online learning system. Online
learning system is an alternative that can solve this problem with the
principles of human-machine friendship learning (HMFL). This research was
conducted to obtain an overview of the implementation of human-machine
Friendship learning at IKIP PGRI Pontianak, Indonesia. Lecturers and
students become research subjects, especially those in the History Education
Study Program of the IKIP PGRI Pontianak. The research employed a
qualitative approach with the type of phenomenological research. Data
collection in this research was carried out by survey, interview and
documentation. The results showed: (1) Implementation of HMFL of History
Education Study Program of FIPPS IKIP PGRI Pontianak as a solution for
implementing learning; (2) Effectiveness of Human-Machine Friendship
Learning which is carried out in an effort to break the chain of the spread of
COVID-19 using the application as a whole, students are satisfied with
flexible learning; (3) The challenges of implementing HMFL include the
weak supervision and control of students, the problem of weak internet
signals, especially in rural areas, and the relatively high cost of internet
quota.

Track 4. New publishing and scientific communication ways: Electronic edition, Information metrics and digital educational resources
Authors: Antonio Jose Rodrigues Neto, Maria Manuel Borges and Licinio Roque
This study analyzes the use of social networks like Facebook and Twitter by two major Spanish radio stations, Cadena SER and COPE, to promote their on-demand programming content. The study uses quantitative methods to analyze the number of followers and level of interaction for selected radio programs on each network's social media accounts. The results show that Twitter tends to have more impact than Facebook. The most followed COPE programs are about football on Facebook and cycling on Twitter, while the most followed SER programs are about football on Facebook and basketball on Twitter. In general, radio programs' use of social networks is heterogeneous, but social media can be a useful promotional tool, though not all programs maximize this potential.
This document presents a three-step process for analyzing the communication strategies of top-ranked higher education institutions on Facebook. The first step characterizes each institution's editorial policy and audience response patterns. The second step compares the institutions using created metrics. The third step uses random forests to predict future engagement, sentiment, and response based on past posts. The process was applied to the top 5 universities in the QS World University Rankings and found accuracy above 80% for predictions, allowing recommendations on effective communication strategies.
This document discusses multimedia texts in social networks and media aesthetics. It begins by noting that 97 million people in Russia use VKontakte each month. New media is changing how mass communication works by forming media aesthetics - both how aesthetic values are interpreted in media culture and how communication is constructed using multimedia. Multimedia texts on social networks combine different sign systems like text, pictures, audio and video. Users learn to communicate and create complex multimedia texts through practices like language play, precedents, irony and collages. A case study analyzed two news messages on VKontakte about an expedition, finding the multimedia one was more engaging and interactive for users. The conclusion is that multimedia texts are native to media aesthetics and social

The document summarizes an experimental study that tested the effects of direct online political communication on civic participation in Spain. It describes a 2x2 experiment that manipulated levels of conflict and interactivity in online political messages. Results showed that highly interactive messages had a greater impact on attention to elections when conflict was high versus low. Additionally, political interest mediated the relationship between interactivity and civic engagement. However, levels of conflict did not significantly influence political interest or civic participation. The study partly supported the hypothesis that political interest moderates effects of online communication on participation.
The document analyzes university media in Ecuador, including their models, types, functions, and self-determination. It identifies the most common models as institutional media managed by communication departments or faculties for student participation. The primary functions of Ecuadorian university media are to provide practical learning, promote the university brand, disseminate knowledge, support education, and address social issues. Results found the majority consider themselves public or mixed community-public/private, with self-determination being an important aspect.
The document discusses how researchers have used framing theory in studies analyzing environmental information in press/media. It reviews 9 relevant articles on this topic. Most commonly referenced authors on framing theory are Entman, Tankard, Scheufele, and De Vreese. The studies integrate framing theory by analyzing framing elements like actors and sources in news coverage. Definitions of framing theory focus on how text can define issues and shape debate. Key elements accompanying framing theory discussed are frameworks and interpretation.

This document proposes a tag-based browsing system for digital collections that uses inverted indexes and a browsing cache to improve performance. Tags representing element-value pairs are used to filter resources. A browsing cache stores browsing states like filtered resources and selectable tags to speed up navigating when tag filters change. Preliminary experiments show the cache can substantially improve browsing speed over an uncached system using just inverted indexes, though with increased memory usage. Future work aims to integrate browsing automata and links between resources.

The PROVIDEDH project aims to give Digital Humanities scholars tools to explore research objects and the degree of uncertainty in models applied to data. It is an interdisciplinary project that will analyze and adapt approaches from other fields where computing has been applied more extensively. The goal is to standardize infrastructures, frameworks, models and tools across different humanities disciplines.
Dotmocracy and Planning Poker are two techniques derived from digital culture that can help manage uncertainty in collaborative research projects. Dotmocracy allows researchers to visually prioritize topics through individual voting, revealing shared priorities. Planning Poker uses a consensus-based game to estimate effort for tasks, coordinating complex workflows. The techniques were applied in 9 research contexts involving 94 participants to discuss questions, methods, community interests, and task estimation. More study of techniques like these could improve collaborative decision-making and managing uncertainty in research teams.

To conclude, these experienced risks give us some
indication that in order to utilize social media in
higher education practicing teachers should focus on
training the social media skills but above all to lower
the sociological barrier based risks. This could be for
example by discussing with students ethics, rules
and web culture. Also further research questions
could rise from these subjects.
