Digital Classics Outside the Echo-Chamber : Teaching, Knowledge Exchange and Public Engagement /

The international perspectives on these issues are especially valuable in an increasingly connected, but still institutionally and administratively diverse world. The research addressed in several chapters in this volume includes issues around technical standards bodies like EpiDoc and the TEI, engaging with ways these standards are implemented, documented, taught, used in the process of transcribing and annotating texts, and used to generate publications and as the basis for advanced textual or corpus research. Other chapters focus on various aspects of philological research and content creation, including collaborative or community driven efforts, and the issues surrounding editorial oversight, curation, maintenance and sustainability of these resources. Research into the ancient languages and linguistics, in particular Greek, and the language teaching that is a staple of our discipline, are also discussed in several chapters, in particular for ways in which advanced research methods can lead into language technologies and vice versa and ways in which the skills around teaching can be used for public engagement, and vice versa. A common thread through much of the volume is the importance of open access publication or open source development and distribution of texts, materials, tools and standards, both because of the public good provided by such models (circulating materials often already paid for out of the public purse), and the ability to reach non-standard audiences, those who cannot access rich university libraries or afford expensive print volumes. Linked Open Data is another technology that results in wide and free distribution of structured information both within and outside academic circles, and several chapters present academic work that includes ontologies and RDF, either as a direct research output or as essential part of the communication and knowledge representation. Several chapters focus not on the literary and philological side of classics, but on the study of cultural heritage, archaeology, and the material supports on which original textual and artistic material are engraved or otherwise inscribed, addressing both the capture and analysis of artefacts in both 2D and 3D, the representation of data through archaeological standards, and the importance of sharing information and expertise between the several domains both within and without academia that study, record and conserve ancient objects. Almost without exception, the authors reflect on the issues of interdisciplinarity and collaboration, the relationship between their research practice and teaching and/or communication with a wider public, and the importance of the role of the academic researcher in contemporary society and in the context of cutting edge technologies. How research is communicated in a world of instant- access blogging and 140-character micromessaging, and how our expectations of the media affect not only how we publish but how we conduct our research, are questions about which all scholars need to be aware and self-critical.

El análisis de co-citas como método de investigación en Bibliotecología y Ciencia de la Información

Se muestra aquí la pertinencia y utilidad del análisis de co-citas como método de investigación en Bibliotecología y Ciencia de la Información (BCI), mediante un análisis bibliométrico y una revisión del contenido de los principales trabajos publicados sobre este tema. Se analiza el tamaño y evolución de la literatura, la tipología documental y las temáticas de las revistas donde se publican las principales contribuciones. Se mencionan algunos de los métodos y técnicas más utilizados para analizar y visualizar las estructuras de conocimiento de dominios científicos, y se presentan algunos de los modelos de mapas propuestos. Se describen algunas de las aplicaciones y posibles usos de los resultados de estos análisis y, finalmente, se mencionan sus principales ventajas y limitaciones

Oportunidades y desafíos actuales de la investigación en Bibliotecología y Ciencia de la Información. El caso del Departamento de Bibliotecología de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina

Este trabajo aporta algunas reflexiones sobre las oportunidades y desafíos actuales de la investigación en Bibliotecología y Ciencia de la Información en el ámbito de las universidades nacionales argentinas. A modo de ejemplo se estudia el caso de la actividad investigadora del Departamento de Bibliotecología de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina, a partir de la información recabada del curriculum vitae de su actual planta de docentes investigadores. Los resultados muestran que a pesar de las dificultades que plantea la investigación en esta disciplina en el país, es posible transformar los desafíos en oportunidades fortaleciendo la actividad investigadora, tanto desde la perspectiva cuantitativa como cualitativa de la formación, la participación en proyectos de investigación, y la comunicación y difusión de los resultados científicos

Australian occupational therapists' use of an online evidence-based practice database (OTseeker)

Introduction: Online databases can support the implementation of evidence-based practice by providing easy access to research. OTseeker (www.otseeker.com), an electronic evidence database, was introduced in 2003 to assist occupational therapists to locate and interpret research. Objectives: This study explored Australian occupational therapists' use and perceptions of OTseeker and its impact on their knowledge and practice. Methods: A postal survey questionnaire was distributed to two samples: (i) a proportionate random sample of 400 occupational therapists from all states and territories of Australia, and (ii) a random sample of occupational therapists working in 95 facilities in two Australian states (Queensland and New South Wales). Results: The questionnaire was completed by 213 participants. While most participants (85.9%) had heard of OTseeker, only 103 (56.6%) had accessed it, with lack of time being the main reason for non-use. Of the 103 participants who had accessed OTseeker, 68.9% had done so infrequently, 63.1% agreed that it had increased their knowledge and 13.6% had changed their practice after accessing information on OTseeker. Conclusion: Despite OTseeker being developed to provide occupational therapists with easy access to research, lack of time was the main reason why over half of the participants in this study had not accessed it. This exploratory research suggests, however, that there is potential for the database to influence occupational therapists' knowledge and practice about treatment efficacy through access to the research literature.
