Balancing the Books the Economics of Digital Curation Training & Education
Balancing the Books the Economics of Digital Curation Training & EducationDigCurV
油
Jisc has funded several projects focused on training for digital curation. There is high demand for training from organizations taking on responsibility for digital assets, but current supply does not meet this demand. Economic theory suggests organizations are reluctant to fund general training that employees could use elsewhere. However, studies show younger and more educated employees participate more in training due to feelings of reciprocity with their employers. To better address the supply and demand imbalance for digital curation training, more research is needed on the origin of demand and effective course design at basic, intermediate, and advanced levels focused on productivity gains. Fostering trust and reciprocity between organizations and employees could also encourage greater uptake of available training opportunities.The Digital Content Management Curriculum

The document discusses various definitions of curriculum:
1. Curriculum can refer to the set of courses and content offered at a school or university.
2. It is also defined as a prescribed course of study that students must complete to pass a level of education.
3. Curriculum has numerous definitions and can refer to individual courses, overall course offerings, or all experiences under school guidance. Scholars have further divided curriculum into 8 elements relating to subjects, useful knowledge, all planned learning, experiences guided by the school, and experiences constructed by students.AVC Library Faculty Survey

The survey was developed over several semesters with input from librarians and administrators. It was implemented in Fall 2011 with posters, flyers and division meetings used to promote it. 119 surveys were completed, representing 20% of faculty. The results showed that about half of faculty use the library for class preparation and personal enrichment. Most faculty encourage student use of electronic resources and integrate research assignments. Over 90% of faculty view themselves as library advocates and feel librarians can help students.Formative evaluation of eJump courses

Strategic collection management through statistical analysisNASIG

Libraries collect and use many different types of statistics, but effectively managing them is a challenging opportunity for libraries to understand statistical trends through analysis. Stephanie H. Wical and Hans Kishel surveyed and interviewed Wisconsin academic libraries in order to understand what statistics these libraries currently collect. What tools and measures do Wisconsin academic libraries use and for what purpose? What do these libraries consider best practices? New tools have been developed that help manage statistics but questions remain. How do we compare statistics across vendors? What measures are libraries using and why? Have Wisconsin academic libraries discovered effective ways to manipulate and present their data? How do libraries value and prioritize uses of statistics that they collect? Is it possible to analyze statistics to paint a compelling picture to justify collection development decisions or planning? Lastly, how can we begin to assess how successfully we use statistics for various purposes? This presentation explores these questions as well as several case studies that highlight examples of real libraries and how they manage statistics. It is our hope that this talk will help engage library staff in a discussion about how to most effectively manage library resources.

This document summarizes research conducted to develop and validate a tool to assess the impact of evidence summaries on library professionals. The research had three phases: developing the tool, surveying readers of evidence summaries, and interviewing some survey respondents. The survey found that evidence summaries primarily had cognitive and practice impacts but little community impact. Interviews revealed additional potential impacts like discovery, sharing, and assistance. The researchers concluded the tool resonated with respondents and documenting research impact is important, and they proposed revisions and further validation of the tool.The use of ICT by South African physiotherapy students

Reusable learning objects (RLOs) are self-contained, web-based units that can be reused for teaching content. This document discusses how the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth is using RLOs to provide students anytime access to course content and assessments to improve information literacy skills. Library staff and instructional designers have collaborated to develop several tutorial RLOs on topics such as primary vs. secondary sources and citation skills. Student surveys found that the majority of students found the RLOs useful and that their research assignments improved as a result. However, developing high-quality RLOs is a time-intensive process and faculty need guidance on integrating them effectively.AECT: New Paradigm Schools

1) Studies have found that students are slightly more likely to fail or withdraw from online courses compared to face-to-face courses at community colleges. However, comparisons of completion rates need to account for differences in student demographics and other factors.
2) Expectations for online course completion rates should consider differences in student populations, instructor experience, and course lengths. Shorter online courses may help address interruptions in students' lives from family or work issues.
3) Improving support systems, early intervention, orientation, and professional development can help increase online completion rates. The goal should be enabling student success rather than comparing raw completion statistics between online and face-to-face courses.Increasing Student Success with Pre-enrollment and Self-registration Prep Cou...

The survey found that high school juniors and seniors rely heavily on guidance counselors, friends, teachers, and family when forming their list of potential colleges to consider. They commonly use school brochures/print mail, web searches, and emails from schools as resources. When researching academics, costs, and scholarships, students prefer details on school websites and printed brochures. They find campus visits and school websites most helpful for learning about a campus location and community. Overall, while print materials remain important, digital resources are increasingly influential in students' college selection processes.DL resourcing talk 2012

The presentation covers the growing popularity of generative AI due to rapid technological advancements, ease of use, widespread applicability beyond specialized fields, and its intriguing ability to mimic human-like creativity and humor. It argues that the widespread fascination stems from the surprising capabilities of these tools that were previously thought exclusive to human cognition.
A significant focus is placed on the shift from traditional search engine optimization (SEO) to generative AI optimization (GAIO). Companies are advised to prioritize creating clear, contextual content that AI can easily integrate into responses when queried by users. This represents a strategic shift from keyword-based SEO to contextual meaning, influencing online presence and visibility.
際際滷s emphasize several upcoming changes due to GAI adoption, such as the decline of simple search queries, reduced costs of content creation, the disappearance of superficial communication, and increased importance of longer, meaningful interactions.
Critical perspectives caution against overestimating AI capabilities and urge organizations to clearly define their future structures incorporating AI, addressing employees' concerns transparently.
Several practical recommendations for businesses are provided, encouraging strategic adaptation to GAI rather than blindly following technology trends. These suggestions include emphasizing quality content, managing overuse of GAI, and aligning processes to leverage the strengths of these tools effectively.
Finally, the session assigns homework tasks: students must analyze an SME's potential transformation through GAI, identify use cases, propose detailed implementations, optimize content strategically for AI queries, and establish guidelines for employees' GAI usage. Students are encouraged to personalize their analyses without overly relying on AI-generated texts. How to process Interwarehouse and Intrawarehouse transfers in Odoo
