6. Researchdissemination
• A planned process that involves consideration
of target audiences, consideration of the
settings in which research findings are to be
received, and communicating and interacting
with wider audiences in ways that will facilitate
research uptake and understanding.

7. Knowledge translation is moving research from the
laboratory, the research journal, and the academic
conference into the hands of people and organizations who
can put it to practical use

13. Blog
a Web site where a person writes regularly about recent events or a
particular topic, sometimes with new information added every few
minutes as events happen, and with the opportunity for readers to
send in their own comments and opinions

14. Blogging is quite simply, one of the most important
things that an academic should be doing right
now.

18. Why blog?
• reduce research waste
improve access
• build awareness
• increase connections
• boost impact within and
outside of academia
• increases the reach of
publications — more
collaboration and
opportunities
• practice plain language
communication

19. How we canuse blogs
• Researcher-to-Researcher: Sharing and exchange
• Researcher-to-Participants: Building credibility and
“informing” participants
• Researcher-to-Public: Sharing and applying findings, results
and practical resources
21. Considerations
• Target audience
• Discoverability
• Tone
• Shorter blogs are preferable to long essays
• Strong and entertaining keywords
• Videos and images
• Guest blogs
22. Solo Collaborative Multi-Author
Type of blog
and authorship
The blog owner is
responsible for
direction of the
content and writes
the posts.
Occasionally
guests contribute.
The blog or
another serves as
the editor, giving
the site in personal
style.
Usually 2 to 10 authors
generate and edit the
blog’s content. Guest
blogs or columns are
written by regular
contributors. Editorial
roles may be rotated or
shared.
An editorial team commissions
or collates contributions from
many authors. Posts are
professional edited and the
site has strong production
values and design. The blog
may have a formal tie-in to a
scholarly journal or trade
publication.
How do
readers find
the blog?
Individual authors’
identities are key
to the brand.
Topic or disciplinary
identities help to develop
a brand.
Strong branding, linked to
university, media outlet or
professional/scientific bodies
or journals.
23. Examples
• Researcher-to-Researcher
⚬ Solo: This Sociological Life from Deborah Lupton, Helen Kara, Patter, from Pat Thompson, and The
Academic Creative from Katie Linder.
⚬ Collaborative: Sociological Imagination , The Thesis Whisperer, and Small Pond Research
⚬ Multi-Author: London School of Economics Impact of Social Sciences, and ACRLog, a blog for academic
and research librarians. SAGE Methodspace is also an example of this type.
• Researcher-to-Participant
⚬ Specific to the research project and taken offline when project is completed.
• Researcher-to-Audience
⚬ Collaborative: Savage Minds, anthropology for a public audience, Division of Environmental Biology (DEB),

37. Podcasting is a great way to synthesize research into bite-sized
pieces for listeners who come from a range of backgrounds. Not only
does podcasting help researchers think through how to communicate
their work to different audiences, but the medium can also go a long
way to increase research literacy at scale.

38. Whydo a
podcast?
Why you should podcast your
research or project:
• Podcasting helps you
reach wider audiences
• No topic is too niche
• Podcasts are research

44. Soloformat
• single host, monologuing
either alone or with clips /
musical accompaniment
• ideal for communicating a
lecture to students or
disseminating a research
topic
45. Co-hosted
format
• two or more regular hosts
working together.
• disseminating group work or
debating real-world issues.
46. • one or more regular hosts, supplemented
by different guest hosts brought on each
episode
• works well for variety shows that want to
show off different opinions, different fields
of research or different innovators
