Workshops

This workshop will help you to raise your research profile by getting noticed promoting yourself and your research online.

We will explore useful strategies for managing your online research presence by considering the following questions:

• Which online tools and platforms are the most useful to me?

• How can I find the time to use social media tools to promote my research?

• How can I maximise access to my research?

• How do I know if my online presence strategies are effective?

• Raising awareness of your research

Open Research is a broad and evolving field encompassing various practices, all of which contribute to a more transparent, responsible, and ethical research culture. In this interactive workshop, we will explore some of the research practices that enable Open Research, under the University's Open Research Skills Framework.

We will discuss what these practices entail within different research disciplines, the tools and systems that enable open and transparent research, and how a more open research culture can benefit researchers, the sector, and society in general. We will reflect on how Open Research can be applied to your own research, and signpost to the University's Open Research communities, activities, support and training, via the University of Manchester Office for Open Research.

This session will take place on campus.

Researchers collect, receive and manage research data in many forms.

Managing your data can be complex, but a little planning at the beginning can save you time, raise your research profile and help you work more effectively.

This session aims to provide you with confidence in data and information management and introduce you to resources and services to help with Research Data Management.

• Research data management
• Research data explained

Researchers collect, receive, and manage data in many ways. Making sure this data is well-managed and reusable can be complex, but the FAIR Principles are here to help. The concepts underlying the FAIR principles are grounded in good scientific practice and aim to guide people to maximise the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse of digital assets. Making your data FAIR can help you work more effectively, raise your research profile, and engage with open research initiatives.

This workshop is for people in academia with little or no experience of FAIR. This course aims to be succinct in introducing FAIR, its concepts and terminology, and supplements all material with introducing and signposting to useful FAIR resources.

In this workshop we will explore the ways we can communicate our research to different audiences and the benefits this can have in developing our understanding of our own research. You will have the opportunity to reflect on the forms of research communication that have or havent worked for you, as well as the consideration of impact and appropriateness of research output formats for different audiences. This includes but is not limited to written, visual, audible and immersive mediums and will touch upon the idea of Open Research. You will get to explore why these have or havent worked for you and as a result, look at new and existing ways in which you can communicate your research.
