The distribution of academic research and teaching material has been based on books, static documents and slide presentations. However, the widespread adoption of electronic devices and the change to hybrid teaching are accelerating the creation of cross-platform content. Blogs, videos, software and other dynamic content are becoming the norm for better teaching and distribution of ideas. In this half-day workshop, we will explore many tools that can be used to facilitate the visibility of your own ideas and research outcomes. We will highlight some use cases of technologies, and spark discussions around best practices to simplify the publication workflow and maximization of its outreach.

Workshop highlights:

Exploration of available tools

There are too many tools for collaboration and dissemination of research ideas, we will provide insights into some of the more extended ones.

Exemplar use cases

Multiple examples of technologies being used in projects to extend the visibility of research.

Networking and collaboration

Meet like-minded people interested in expanding their personal network and creating potential research collaborations.

Brainstorming

You will have the opportunity to share your own ideas in groups, which will lead to the definition of a forthcoming Hackathon.
