Onderwerp: Video clips describe added value of collaborative environments
for researchers and Enhanced Publications

 

SURFfoundation <http://www.surffoundation.nl/en/Pages/default.aspx>  has
made several short video clips about the experiences of researchers in
several innovative SURFshare
<http://www.surffoundation.nl/en/themas/openonderzoek/Pages/default.aspx>
project on Collaboratories and Enhanced Publications. On both subjects a
promotional video of 5 minutes has been made. Although the video's are
spoken in Dutch, the two promotion video's are now available with English
subtitles on YouTube <http://www.youtube.com/user/StichtingSURF> .

 

Collaboratories
<http://www.surffoundation.nl/en/actueel/Pages/Filmsshowaddedvalueofcollabor
ativeenvironmentsforresearchers.aspx> 

New advances in ICT are making it possible for researchers to collaborate
virtually in many different ways. The new tools help researchers collect and
organise research data, share sources, and describe and publish research
results. In the video's, researchers and support staff describe what it is
like to set up and work with a collaboratory. 

The researchers discovered that collaboratories are particularly useful for
storing and sharing information. Online collaborative environments can also
be handy when combined with online public information. One of the
collaboratories was set up to forward certain information from the
restricted-access environment to an existing public website.

Enhanced
<http://www.surffoundation.nl/en/actueel/Pages/ShortinformationfilmsaboutEnh
ancedPublications.aspx>  Publications 

An Enhanced Publication consists of a publication, usually a text, enhanced
with extra materials. The publication may be an article in a journal, a
dissertation, a report, a memorandum or a chapter in a book. Such
publications can be enhanced by adding or linking them to research data,
illustrations, videos, audio files, visualisations, metadatasets and
post-publication data such as commentary or rankings.

Working with Enhanced Publications led the researchers to discover that
adding background materials to publications allowed other researchers to
review and repeat the research more easily. Enhanced Publications also
proved to be useful in teaching. Students, for example, can repeat the
research described in a publication and learn to analyse using the research
data underlying the conclusions given in the publication. Enhanced
Publications can also be a valuable tool for the general public. By linking
policy documents to publications and the research data on which they are
based, for example, the relevance of the research to society is made clear.
