Unveiling the Ecosystem of Science: How can we characterize and assess divers...Nicolas Robinson-Garcia
This document outlines a proposed valuation model for assessing individual scientists. It aims to address shortcomings of current assessment methods that focus only on excellence, outputs, and universal criteria. The model would combine expert judgment with metrics to evaluate multiple dimensions of scientists' work, including scientific engagement, social engagement, background, capacity building, and openness. Case studies of scientists would examine how reported activities fit within this model and relate to factors like seniority, diversity, and values not currently considered. The next step would be to test the model through an experimental structured expert judgment assessment. Feedback on the proposal is sought to help improve the model.

Librarians can benefit from engaging in research in their roles. Practitioner research focuses on addressing current problems or needs within an organization. It can provide benefits to both individuals and their institutions or services. For individuals, research provides interesting learning opportunities and aids career development. For organizations, research can help gather evidence of value, engage users, improve services, and increase staff motivation. Managers can support a culture of research by allowing time for activities, encouraging training and funding bids, and promoting research-informed practice.
This document proposes a solution to increase research output in Indian universities by making structured research a mandatory part of undergraduate studies. It suggests requiring students to work in groups with faculty guidance to produce a research paper. Top papers would be selected for publication in journals. This would expose more students to research and potentially attract some to pursue it as a career. It would also incentivize universities and faculty by linking additional grants to improved research output. Challenges around funding, infrastructure and attracting talent are addressed through public-private partnerships, targeting top schools initially, and creating incentives for researchers.
It's not how you measure, it's what you measurefqwood
Countries throughout the world are looking to innovation (particularly derived from advances in science and engineering) not only for wealth creation and job growth but also to help solve the global grand challenges – in energy, food security, water supplies, climate change, environmental sustainability, social unrest and aging populations. And the debt crises in the US and the Euro zone have given an added urgency to the importance of understanding how
to build a supply chain of innovation and entrepreneurship that goes all the way from quality, curiosity-driven research to the development of innovative products and services.
Publicly supported research and research funding agencies are seen to play a key role in this supply chain. And much attention is being directed in many countries to designing ways to better harness the contributions made by this type of research to innovation. This comes at a time when Western governments in particular are questioning the sustainability of their investments in the research enterprise and looking for ways to maximise the impact of these investments. For some this has led to a preoccupation with measurement and an enhanced role of bibliometrics in the funding allocations process – sometimes with brutal consequences for researchers who have become disenfranchised as a result of the ‘concentration and selectivity’ drive.
In my presentation I will overview some of the pluses and minuses of bibliometrics as used for judging research performance for funding purposes. Attention will also be directed to recent initiatives such as STAR-METRICS in the US and the Lattes Platform in Brazil and the SIAMPI project coordinated by KNAW.
However, my main message is that governments first need to be clear about what it is they want to achieve from investing in research and to differentially support and measure research activity and outcomes based on these investment objectives. The European Research Area Board’s recent contribution to the Common Strategic Framework for Research and Innovation consultation provides important leadership in this quest.
Management discipline is highly field oriented requiring strong focus on research. The current scenario is characterized by digitization, collaboration and novel measures to assess the impact of research.
Librarians as researchers: why bother darts3 290612ARLGSW
Librarians can benefit from conducting research in three key ways: individually, to develop new skills and enhance careers; for their organizations, to improve services and demonstrate value; and for the profession as a whole, by advancing knowledge and establishing an evidence base for practice. However, barriers like lack of skills, time and support must be overcome. Developing a research culture through training, collaboration and showcasing work can help librarians start researching practitioner issues.
Research and Scholarship in Higher Education Learning and TeachingNewportCELT
This chapter discusses the links between research and teaching in higher education. It addresses the role of research supervisors in guiding students through projects while maintaining regular contact. Ideal supervisors provide subject-specific guidance and support to students. Universities typically require supervisors to meet regularly with students and submit progress reports.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Upgrading the Quality of Research Outputs of HEIs and Promoting a Culture of Scholarship among Filipino Educators by Dr. Danilo B. Largo
1. Upgrading the quality of research outputs of HEIs and promoting a culture of scholarship among Filipino educators Danilo B. Largo Director, Office of Research University of San Carlos Cebu City 01
2. Outline: Defining research and research culture Quality of research in HEIs and symptoms of weaknesses Factors hindering the development of a strong research universities 101 ways to promote a culture of scholarship among Filipino educators Research Performance evaluation Benchmark of research quality 02
3. Three (3) core processes in the University teaching, research, and extension + production 03
4. Research, defined Researchis a systematic process of collecting and analyzing information following a set of procedures in obtaining new knowledge. 04
5. Research approach: vary depending on the field of specialization Basically follow a step by step process of: problem identification thru observation making a hypothesis constructing a theoretical framework designing or adopting a method gathering of data processing the data, analyzing and interpreting, and drawing conclusions and making recommendations This is the Scientific Method 05
7. but… is doing research a culture in itself? Research by an individual for getting a degree (BS, MA/MS) is an initiation Research done by an individual as a habit is an individualculture Research done by a group of individuals in addressing a common problem is a groupculture 07
8. Research culture exists in the university if the following elements are present: There is a critical mass of academics in a unit with a passion to do research. Lack of funding is not a deterrence to do research. Doing research is purpose-driven: to generate knowledge and filling one’s pocket, while desirable, is only secondary. Publications of output generated are primary measure of research accomplishment. There is a sense of bayanihan among the members of the research team; a community of researchers able to share talents and time with attention to quality of work. 08
9. Research culture exists in the university if the following elements are present: Doing research is a tradition, like a habit. Each member of a research team contributes to knowledge generation as a whole. Inter- and intradepartmental collaboration exists. A mentoring system exist – the senior faculty guiding the (neophyte) junior faculty who in turn guides the students. 09
10. Research culture cannot be imposed but is evolved through time. Enabling mechanisms supporting research (policies) in the university hastens this evolution. 10
11. How then can a department in a university develop a research culture ? It starts with the person– i.e. the faculty, students By changing the traditional hiring policy of HAVING GOOD TEACHERS and NOT HAVING GOOD RESEARCHERS ! the Challenge isto have critical mass of good researchers 11
12. How a research culture develops in a department ? Indoctrination in research starts with: - Faculty member’s exposure to department research, with peers acting as mentor, and - Faculty attending in professional organization’s annual meetings, symposia, conferences, etc. Building confidence: - by having a research project and present findings in professional meetings. 12
13. How to get started? Start at writing research proposals to get funding Get to know some funding sources - govtfunding agencies (GFAs), e.g. CHED, DOST, - foreign sources – e.g. USAID, AusAid, GTZ, Ford Foundation, Sumitomo Foundation, etc.- in-house funding Know the application format of each agency Try for collaborative projects - one with seasoned researchers in the group Start small research, like a laboratory or a class exercise 13
14. What else? Get mentored. Mentors are senior faculty who has track record in research Start writing a manuscript of your research output Present your output in internal forums: first, in regular round-table discussions of your department then, in in-house R&D review organized by the university Haveyour manuscript corrected (content, grammar) by your peers for improvement Present in a higher level forums organized by professional organizations outside the university. Publish your work and be known - i.e. in a professional journal, preferably peer-refereed/reviewed 14
15. What is the state of research in our HEIs? Beyond thesis and dissertation the academe hasnot (yet) done enough in research to address current issues and problems that propel economic progress. 15
16. Symptoms of weaknesses 1. We are one of the lowest in Asia in the ff. indicators : low number of PhDs, scientists and engineers low number of publications in peer-reviewed journals, low number of journals in science and technology published in the Philippines which are ISI indexed low number of patents by own residents as applied to our IP Office low number of foreign direct investments in the country 16
18. Symptoms of weaknesses 2. Patent landscape of PHL based on a 3-Yr Local Patent Applications (Source: IPO Phil) 18
19. Symptoms of weaknesses 3. Poor standing in the Global Competitiveness Index 2010-11. Switzerland tops the list, out of 139 economies in the 2010-2011 GCI followed by Sweden (no. 2), Singapore (no. 3) and U.S.A. (no. 4) Philippines ranks no. 85 it ranked No. 87 in 2009-2010 and No. 71 in 2008-2009 aside from Singapore, Malaysia (No. 26), China (No. 27), India (No. 51), above us in ASEAN are Thailand (38), Indonesia (44), Vietnam (59), and even Vietnam (no. 59) and Sri Lanka (No. 62). Rankings are calculated from both publicly available data and the Executive Opinion Survey, a comprehensive annual survey conducted by the World Economic Forum 19
20. Symptoms of weaknesses 4. Philippines lag behind in SEA in no. of research output. (all disciplines) 20
25. R&D Expenditure / GDP (%) in Asian Countries Source: JICA Seminar on National R&D Projects, Feb. 13-Mar. 18, 2001, Tokyo. 26
26. Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 2. Weak state policies and framework in research results in the poor generation of intellectual property outputs results to our poor standing in the Global Competitiveness Index of WEF 27
27. Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 3. Weak generation and protection of Intellectual Property IP as driver of economic development IP as creation of the human mind in the various fields IP as intangible asset when created, becomes tangible asset in the form of product – WIPO IP types: Copyrights, trademarks, patents, utility models, trade secrets, industrial designs, lay-out designs (in integrated circuits) An IP-conscious academe helps drive the economy. 28
28. The World Economic Forum’s Global Competitiveness Reportindicates a correlation between the protection of intellectual property rights and national competitiveness. In 2004, the 20 countries that were perceived as having the most stringent intellectual property protection were classed among the top 27 in the WEF’s growth competitiveness index. Conversely, the 20 countries perceived as having the weakest intellectual property regimes were ranked among the bottom 36 for growth and competitiveness.

29. 4. Unattractive salary package and lack of incentives (e.g. in publications) for our researchers results in brain-drain contributing to less and less people engaged in research, including a low ratio of scientists and engineers per million population Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 29
30.
31. Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 6. Little weight given to research performance vs. teaching in policies on ranking and promotion leads to poor research quality and the ability to innovate which are needed to develop new technologies 31
32. Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 7. Proliferation of gray literatures because of difficulty maintaining a peer-refereed journal due to: lack of capable person to lead (as editor) lack of reviewers little or no budget allocated for its maintenance 32
33. Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 8. Weak leaders and lack of dedicated and well-trained research mentors (who are not publishing) Only result to weak researchers 33
34. Factors hindering development of a strong research universities 9. Institution’s tendency to assign faculty members who have PhD in administrative or management posts, instead of assigning them in the laboratory this breeds only “disk researchers” instead of cutting-edge researchers 34
35.
36. 101 ways to promote a culture of scholarship among Filipino educators 63
39. Institutionalized research in the academe thru policies that include: - reasonable budget - a Manual ofResearch with provisions for giving incentives, e.g. cash reward for publication, for awards and recognition received in research, etc. 64
40.
41.
42. No more Non-thesis programs (esp. in sciences)- this only promotes graduates without research skills that is counterproductive to developing research-oriented graduates.66
43.
44. Promote entrepreneurship as a mindset among researchers (e.g.- Silicon Valley started from university-based entrepreneurship)
45. Strive to publish - original research outputs in peer-refereed journals - textbooks, manuals, and other forms of copyrightable materials67
46.
47.
48. Give weight to research performance as with teaching to encourage more faculty engaging in research.
49. Assign returning scholars to the research labs - to practice what they have learned rather than giving them admin positions.69
50.
51. Incentivize research such as giving of cash rewards for every publications in peer-refereed journals, patents acquired, recognition and awards received, etc.
52. Increase collaboration with research institutions - link with foreign institutions to imbibe new ideas - write joint research proposals with partners – for capability building
55. Maintain a pool of good researchers, with good learning attitude as well as being team players – this is where a strong research culture develops
56. Improve the mentoring system - involve students in research projects (e.g. as research assistants, field/laboratory assistants, etc.) – for them to gain experience and build confidence71
57.
58. Entice more Filipinos to return and help build the culture of research (more than the Balikscientist program)
59. Welcoming environment for returning scholars; provide opportunities to engage in research in their field of expertise.72
60.
61. Better coordination among government agencies to avoid redundancy in research programs resulting only to unnecessary waste of funds.73
62.
63. A strategy to strengthen research Research performanceevaluation- benchmarking - 75
64. Research performance evaluation (benchmarking) To answer such questions as: What is the relative standing of Institution A in important subject areas? Has this changed over time? How does the rate of research growth compare? How does the picture look in important niche areas? 76
65. Search Tools- tracks citation counts for published articles Google Scholar Thompson ISI WoS SCOPUS– now called the SciVerse Scopus 77
69. Benchmark of Research Quality : Publications in peer reviewed journals Papers produced per faculty Citations per faculty 37
70. 1. Peer review Traditionally plays a central role in quality assurance of scientific research 38
71. 2. Papers produced per faculty tells of the critical mass of researchers a university has 39
72. 3. Citation per faculty Supplementary information for peer review Help to monitor the quality and integrity of the peer-review process Help identify the most suitable peer reviewers Relatedness of research Standing in field 40
73. Popular Ranking Systems include research performance quality in ranking THE-QS World University Rankings QS.com Asian University Rankings Shanghai Jiao Tong University Academic Ranking of World Universities Asian University Research Rating System 41
74. THE-QS World University Rankings Overall ranking Asian ranking Subject area rankings: Arts & humanities Life sciences and biomedicine Natural sciences Social sciences IT and Engineering 42
77. Shanghai Jiao Tong University Academic Ranking of World Universities Original goal was to discern what kind of research gap existed between Chinese and “world-class” universities Institutions are compared and ranked on a strictly quantitative basis, with no room for subject impressions Academic and research performances are measured the following indicators and weighting: 45
79. Asian University Research Rating System Focused only on research Objective criteria Permits self-monitoring Designed for Asian research environment A collective effort of the academic community Intended to support universities to strengthen their research Bench-marking to help with resource allocation decisions Performance monitoring Shows complementarities to facilitate collaboration 47
90. What do these ranking figures mean to us? It means that: majority of our universities are not in the map of the best universities in the world, not even in Asia! majority of our universities are dysfunctional, as far as research quality is concerned. 58
91. What do these few Phl universities have in common? All of them have developed a Culture OFresearch. 59
92. Institutions which overcome the barriers in developing research culture and constantly evaluating their research performance thru benchmarking are the ones likely to succeed into (Asia’s) Top Universities rank. 82
