Research dissemination and moocs - Presentation for FutureLearn Partners Forum June 2016
- 1. Research Education Should you find Moocs? Laura Haapio-Kirk Research Assistant & Project Manager, Why We Post: The Anthropology of Social Media Matt Jenner Distance Education Advisor, Digital Education, University College London / UCL.
- 4. Academic impact: “The demonstrable contribution that excellent research makes to academic advances, across and within disciplines, including significant advances in understanding, methods, theory and application.” http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/innovation/impacts/
- 5. “Engaging the public with your research can improve the quality of research and its impact, raise your profile, and develop your skills. It also enables members of the public to act as informed citizens and can inspire the next generation of researchers.” http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/innovation/impacts/
- 7. “As the importance of dissemination and impact becomes increasingly recognised, researchers are using ever more innovative methods - including websites, video, conferences, drama, and even exhibitions” http://www.ethicsguidebook.ac.uk/Methods-of-dissemination-180
- 10. Doing awesome research? Non-experts might understand? Or find interesting? You have to teach it anyway? Make a Mooc?
- 11. Creating Why We Post: The Anthropology of Social Media from the ERC funded Global Social Media Impact Study
- 12. 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Research Proposal Submission Dissemination period That Mooc is still running… To do list: 2016: Verify a Mooc is a valid form of dissemination 2016: Estimate the resources to build and the value as a part of the dissemination strategy 2017: Research begins, start creating / collecting assets, later used in the Mooc 2018: Research continues, ideas for what the Mooc actually contains start to form 2019: Evidence gathering coming to a close, Mooc starts to emerge

- 14. Search ‘UCL CRAM tool’ or visit http://web.lkldev.ioe.ac.uk/cram/ Course Resource Appraisal Modeller (CRAM) Model teaching costs and learning benefits
- 15. Justification • Normal Mooc stuff: • public engagement, • recruitment, • explore pedagogy, • income generation, • enhances reputation • Plus: • making research outputs accessible / reusable, • exposure of research activity/profile, • potential for citizen science, • shifting away from traditional norms • I hear universities like larger research grants? • Could boost REF and TEF

- 18. Pulling Mooc-worthy research From whole load of research You’re the claw http://time.com/64905/missing-toddler-found-playing-with-stuffed-animals-inside-the-claw-machine-at-a-bowling-alley/
- 19. Recommendations 1. Prospective? Take one Mooc (#1 advice) 2. Get into the project early 3. Prepare material release forms (get them signed) 4. Know your audience early (who are you building for?) 5. Draft high-level course outline early 6. Remain aligned to university priorities (governance) 7. Find required resources (people, time, media, £, etc.) 8. Plan 2-3 years of Mooc (maintenance, ownership) 9. Take on only what the project can deliver 10. Open all the things – OER is cool.
Notes de l'éditeur
- We think; yes, you can. Maybe…
- So here’s my pitch, when a researcher is planning to produce a lot of awesome stuff I think more of them could make moocs with their outputs.
- Well, not all research projects – and we’ll get back to this.
- For all UK HE research the Research Councils UK state all studies must demonstrate how it’ll affect anyone or anything. They impact as (read thing)
- Or, to ‘engage the public’ and enable them to be ‘informed citizens’. Sounds good, right.
- I bet the public can’t wait to get their hands on these.
- We think we can improve upon this, ‘more innovative methods’ are called for….
- And will likely go down well with these attributes of the Research Excellence Framework (which leads to increased reputation and income)
- So we’re not saying we ditch these, they’re not under scrutiny here. (animation) I’m saying we augment them (Plus!)
- Because there’s enough of the right ingredients then a mooc is a worthy outcome from research.
- Laura’s bit – but happy to add anything in, move around, etc!
- This slide is weak. Should be a real timeline from Why we post?
- The toolkit is currently comprised of; a decision making process for researchers, examples to learn from / lean on. Course costing models, the roles you’ll need in your awesome team, the amount of allocated time for the project and estimations of how much extra resource needed to pay for the course product like video, people, PR, etc. But this is in really early stages, so if anyone wants to partner on this do LMK.
- And for anyone who wanted to see that in more detail – the CRAM / Course Resource Appraisal Modeller is a UCL Knowledge Lab / IOE tool which enables you to model the teaching costs and learning benefits of any type of course, including Moocs.
- As-if the idea of an itnegrated research and edcuation initiative isn’t enough there’s more than a few reasons to justify this kind of activity.
- UCL is very keen to connect our students to academics and researchers.
- So how do we make this grow? At UCL we have some limits and oversight on the number of Moocs in production, and how many we can run concurrently. What happens if it wants to grow exponentially? A similar issue is what if we have more in the pipeline than we can support? My view is these are problems we can resolve, if they are well resourced, we’ll find a way.
