An Introduction to Using Social Media to Communicate Research

*1 day course: Thur 27th Feb 2020*
*Background:* The treadmill of academia is a relentless one: proposal,
research, write, present and then hopefully publish before starting all
over again, all in the hope that the research is recognised as being of
good quality, worthy and valuable. There's one problem though - journals
are not geared up for the modern online world of instant sharing and
communication. Tools and ways of communicating research such as Twitter,
YouTube, ResearchGate, Slideshare, blogging, infographics, animation and
many others will be covered. The good news is they are mostly free and can
work together to help research to reach a wider audience. That audience is
not just academic peers, but publishers, editors, fund holders and the
general public.*Course Overview: *The aim of the workshop is to offer an
introduction to the many tools you can use to help you communicate research
and work smarter. The purpose of the day is to help attendees come away
with a variety of tools and artefacts they can use to help communicate and
share their work. We will teach you basics of social media in an academic
setting and demystify some of the barriers that may have put you off from
using these tools in your work.We will show you how to make the most from
these technologies and show you how to find out alternative ways of
discussing and communicating research. Attention will be paid to the
various ethical issues to working more on the web from copyright and
Creative Commons to making more use of your mobile device, from safety and
security to how you conduct yourself online and netiquette.This short
course will benefit a wide range of people including (but not exhaustive
of):

   - Researchers,
   - Masters and PhD students,
   - Research Support Staff and Managers,
   - Library and Information Professionals,
   - Communications and Marketing Professionals.

*Early bird booking for this course will close 27th December 2019*
*Standard rate booking will close 13th February 2020*
