Rewriting research / Special report: Social academia / Special Reports / Home - Broker - 8 views

  • Above all, to be successful, a wiki needs constant maintenance. ‘Group buy-in’ and ‘collective adoption’ are essential, which means that all members of the group must share an enthusiasm to make regular contributions.
  • Above all, to be successful, a wiki needs constant maintenance. ‘Group buy-in’ and ‘collective adoption’ are essential, which means that all members of the group must share an enthusiasm to make regular contributions. In contrast with academic blogs, where the identity of the main contributor is clear, wikis tend to downplay individual identity in favour of the group. They also feature research that often places equal value on academic and non-academic perspectives.
  • Proponents of wikis argue that such collaboration has the potential to ensure that the quality of research is higher than that produced by individual scholars. But in an academic setting this will happen only if Surowiecki’s collaboration and cooperation problems are resolved.

  • The most important requirement for a successful collaborative writing project via a wiki is that all those involved must be motivated to contribute.
  • Although it is difficult to argue that the quality of publications is actually improved through blogging or online collaborative writing, evidence from various scholars does suggest that this is a possibility.
  • Perhaps we are witnessing the start of an era of separation between what could become two realms of research. One is the realm of traditional ‘pure’ research where, independent of technologies like the internet, the goal is to achieve scientific discoveries that may eventually trickle down to the outside world. In the other, a realm that is much more closely focused on society and policy, practitioners communicate directly, and in real time, with that outside world.

Advantages of UX Research & Why Startups Are Scared to Invest In The Same - PegaLogics - 0 views

  •  
    UX Research is researching and analyzing the target audience. Comprehending their behavioral habits, knowledge, dealings, and emotion towards your property and the mindset they come with when borrowing the product. According to a current study, India discerns about 50,000 new start-ups per year. An average of 2-3 start-ups is assumed every day, and yet India sees only a 10% success ratio. While one may or may not be familiar with difficulties that direct to that, one thing start-ups can evaluate is the Users' experience. If the user successfully utilizes the product, which improves the users' life, generally, there will be an increase in the pressure for such products, hence earning it highly controversial that the commodity or brand will cease to function. So, if that's the possibility, why do start-ups shy off from UX research? Or, what are the beliefs of UX Research that blur the senses of new entrepreneurs today? And how it results in further destruction than reasonable.

International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (iJET) - 0 views

  •  
    This interdisciplinary journal aims to focus on the exchange of relevant trends and research results as well as the presentation of practical experiences gained while developing and testing elements of technology enhanced learning. So it aims to bridge the gape between pure academic research journals and more practical publications. So it covers the full range from research, application development to experience reports and product descriptions.

Diigo and First Year Research | Techno-Rhetoric Cafe - 0 views

  • So, this semester, I went out on a limb and offered my students the option of collaborating on their research this semester. They were already not looking forward to the research, but the idea of using each other to further their research sounded like a good idea. Still, they weren’t jumping at the idea. Then, I gave them a quick walkthrough of Diigo. Their eyes lit up like they had just been given a present–and it wasn’t even their birthday.
