"Open Educational Resources: It’s not the artifact, it’s the process". Presented at the Open Educational Resources Seminar, University of Otago, 28 June 2012
Abstract
If we think of OERs as we think of physical artifacts, we might focus on their design, production, storage and distribution. We could quantify their number, calculate their popularity, and track their use. However, in open, distributed, networked learning environments, the emphasis is not be on the resources but on the engagement between participants who create, use, modify, and share experiences. Resources can be used to prompt and fuel conversations, and the results of one conversation can be saved and used as fuel for another, but it is the way in which they are created and used that determines their effectiveness in learning contexts. In this talk, I will use examples from several open courses to explore the nature of digital resources and discuss how they are used to enable constructive engagements between networked learners. I suggest that, although appropriate resources are an important part of the learning process, we need to pay more attention to the design of the structures and networks in which they are generated and circulated.

Research, impact, value and library and information science (RIVAL): developm...Hazel Hall
The research-practice gap in Library and Information Science (LIS) is well documented, especially in respect of the difficulties of translating research into practice, and resultant lost opportunities. While many researchers attempt to explain this research-practice gap, few suggest strategies to address it. The creation of researcher-practitioner networks, however, is one approach that has been proved empirically to bridge the distance between the two communities. Such a network is currently operating in Scotland, funded by the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Research, Impact, Value and Library and Information Science (RIVAL) is part-way through its implementation based around four knowledge exchange events for a network membership of 32 from a wide variety of LIS sectors. RIVAL’s successful delivery depends in part on the project leads’ experience of undertaking, and evaluating the impact of, a UK Arts and Humanities Research Council funded grant: the Developing Research Excellence and Methods (DREaM) project. Already there are indications that RIVAL is delivering value to network members. There is a strong expectation for this to be enhanced, both in the remainder of the funding period and beyond, offering theoretical contributions to the study of social networks, especially in respect of social capital development to support knowledge exchange.
Collaboration and networking: learning from DREaM and RIVALHazel Hall
Discusses the extent of networking and collaboration amongst library and information science researchers and practitioners who took part in the AHRC-funded Developing Research Excellence and Methods (DREaM) project in 2011/12, and the extent to which learning from this grant has influenced the delivery of the Royal Society of Edinburgh funded Research Impact and Value and Library and Information Science project in 2019/20.

The research underlying this presentation explored the role that libraries play in the linked data context. Focusing on European national libraries and Scottish libraries, multiple data gathering methods and constant comparative analysis were applied in the study. Amongst the findings, a general lack of awareness within the library community of the Semantic Web and the implications of linked data was identified. At the same time, there is recognition that linked data augments the discoverability and enhances the interoperability of library data. The presentation will include recommendations for the application of the findings of this research in practice.
Catalysing research into practice from the ground upHazel Hall
David Stewart, CILIP President for 2019 and Regional Director of Health Library and Knowledge Services North, presents on his key presidential theme: the importance of evidence to underpin the difference that library services make. He provides an overview of CILIP’s plans for greater collaboration and co-ordination, and also shares details of work undertaken in NHS England. This includes (a) national research on return on investment, and (b) details of the Catalyst scheme in the North of England, which has been designed to develop librarian research capability and a ground-up, small-scale research programme.
Professor Hazel Hall introduces the second networking event of RIVAL - a collaborative network of Scotland-based Library and Information Science (LIS) researchers and practising library and information professionals interested in maximising the impact and value of library and information science research. The project, which runs in 2019 and 2020, is funded by the Royal Society of Edinburgh.

Martina's presentation outlines about her involvement in the development of the strategy as Chair of the National School Library Strategy Advisory Group, the strategy’s role in advocacy, and its anticipated impact.
Getting research into action: issues, challenges, solutions by Dr Sarah MortonHazel Hall
Sarah Morton has worked across research, policy and practice for most of her career, and will draw on examples from different settings encountered over this time in her presentation. She is keen to interrogate our learning about effective evidence use from the last 20 years, and review how this can be supported from research and practice perspectives. She will present a vision for the effective use of evidence of all kinds to plan, develop and improve policy, practice, and services. As part of this she will explain some of the ways that she is currently developing tools and support for effective evidence use.
Professor Hazel Hall introduces RIVAL - a collaborative network of Scotland-based Library and Information Science (LIS) researchers and practising library and information professionals interested in maximising the impact and value of library and information science research.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

1. Using social media for impact
Workshop presented at ESRC Final Year Conference
Edinburgh, 25th April 2014
Professor Hazel Hall
http://hazelhall.org
http://slideshare.net/hazelhall
3. Why this session?
This one-hour interactive session covers
1. Consideration of the range of social media tools available to help increase
research impact
2. Practical suggestions and recommendations for researchers keen to
develop their presence on, and use of, social media for a number of work-
related purposes, both at a personal and project level
4. Workshop format
Introductory slides (10 minutes)
These ones!
Exercise (30 minutes)
Team work
Round-up (20 minutes)
Teams report back
Suggestions and recommendations on where you should “be”
5. Established impact measures
Bibliometric indicators measure “academic” impact of individuals’
output
Quantity of publications
Quantity of citations to those publications
Codified in citation databases
6. Established impact measures
Bibliometric indicators measure “academic” impact
Quantity of publications
Quantity of citations to those publications
http://webofknowledge.com
7. Alternative impact measures
Altmetrics assess the impact of individual output using various
criteria across a range of platforms
recommended by others
praised by opinion leaders
mentioned in social media
etc.
downloaded
acknowledged
included in syllabi
quoted in the press
cited in policy documents
Judgements of esteem rely on more than
“mere” publication record. Visibility is
becoming increasingly important for
personal research impact and the
reputational benefits that this brings, e.g.
invitations to collaborate, speak at
conferences, serve on committees etc.
10. But what about wider impact?
Research reach policy action
improvements
Take into account target
audience(s) preferences for
consuming research output
Present output in an way
that is accessible to the
target audience
Ensure project has high
level support
Include target research
audience(s) in the execution
of the research
Activities to ensure that investment in research deliver social and
economic benefit
12. But what about wider impact?
Research reach policy action
improvements
Take into account target
audience(s) preferences for
consuming research output
Present output in an way
that is accessible to the
target audience
Ensure project has high
level support
Include target research
audience(s) in the execution
of the research
Activities to ensure that investment in research deliver social and
economic benefit
Much of this is about how the work is
disseminated and, in particular, output format
(content creation) and accessibility (sharing).
This is where social media come in…
13. Exercise: part 1
Complete your coloured social media bingo card
Approach people who hold cards of a different colour from yours
A person’s name can only appear once on your card
Return to your table when
Your card is complete
OR you are certain that you cannot complete it any further
OR the hooter blows
14. Exercise: part 2
Using the information that you have recorded on your cards (and
prior knowledge where appropriate)
Discuss which social media tools appear best suited to increase:
“Academic” impact: tools that help ensure publications are accessed and cited
“Personal impact”: tools that help enhance visibility and grow reputation
“Research into practice” impact: tools that help support the delivery of social and economic
benefit from investment in research
Group the social media tools according to their main function
Record your findings on the flipchart
15. There are lots of places “to be”
(Local profiles)
CV services
e.g. LinkedIn
Resource sharing sites
e.g. Flickr, Pinterest,
SlideShare, SoundCloud,
Vimeo, YouTube
ID services
e.g. Orcid, ResearcherID
Profile services
e.g. Academia.edu, Google
Scholar, ResearchGate
Blogging and microblogging
platforms
e.g. CoverItLive, Medium, Quora, The
Conversation, Tumblr, Twitter
WordPress
Impact measurement tools
e.g. ImpactStory, Klout
Collaboration sites
e.g. Citeulike, Mendeley
Social networking sites
e.g. Facebook, Google+, Lanyrd
16. So where should you (your projects) be?
For wide dissemination of publications
ID services (e.g. Orcid, ResearcherID) and research profile services (e.g.
Academia.edu, Google Scholar, ResearchGate)
For wide dissemination of presentations
Resource sharing sites (e.g. SlideShare, SoundCloud, Vimeo, YouTube)
If you are interested in tracking your impact
Impact measurement tools (e.g. ImpactStory, Klout)
If you want to keep up to date/others updated
Twitter
And to provide a directory of it all
About.me
17.
18. Should you set up a personal blog?
1. Do you want/need a full “independent” online profile?
2. Do you enjoy writing?
3. Are you prepared to give up your free time to blog regularly?
4. What would a blog give you that you can’t get from use of
other services?
In-house news platform
Update function on LinkedIn
Ad hoc blogging on Medium, guest contributions to The Conversation
19. Resources
