![]() ![]() This workshop is geared toward intermediate-level R users, as the basics of R will not be covered. Using R, a statistical computing language, this workshop will teach participants how to retrieve and process data from the API to visualize and compare online research engagement across multiple scholarly publications. Tracking Online Research Engagement with Altmetrics and RĪltmetrics tracks how often journal articles with a unique identifier (doi, arxiv id, isbn, etc.) are being discussed, shared, downloaded, or saved on social media platforms, news outlets, policy documents, and online reference managers. This workshop will provide an introduction to broader impacts and how traditional and nontraditional scholarly metrics, such as Journal Impact Factor, h-index, Eigenfactor Score, and Altmetrics, are being used to measure research impact. At the end of the workshop, you should have your site up and running, and know how to edit it for future use.Īs scholarly outputs continue to evolve and more scientific grant proposals require broader impact statements, it is important to gather evidence of how your research will have a greater impact upon society. You will learn three tools, including Jekyll, a static website generator, Markdown, for updating content, and Github Pages for freely hosting the site. Have you ever wanted your own professional website but don’t know where to start? In this workshop, you will create a free website for professional use, with options for blogging, hosting syllabi, resumes or portfolios. You’ll also learn how to boost your scholarly impact using social media and alternative metrics that come with these new methods of knowledge communication and online dissemination. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to establish and manage your scholarly identity to help you connect with colleagues, find collaborators, and expose your research to new audiences. It is increasingly necessary for researchers to have a professional presence online. Understand and Build Your Scholarly Identity Isn't all scholarship 'digital' these days? This discussion-based session will explore new and emerging characteristics of contemporary research practices that are sometimes referred to as "digital scholarship." Attendees will come away with a sense of what it means to work "in the open," how scholarly communities are contantly engaged with technology, and in what ways digital scholarship fundamentally alters academia as we know it.
