Whether you’re researching the habits of marine life, ancient texts or just a new way to market products, you’ll likely need some funding to get your studies underway. The Internet is a great place to start looking for sources of funding, and we’ve put together a list here of a hundred or so places where you can get some assistance for your next big research project (link)

This is an indication on just how relative, simplistic, and self-serving the so-called university ‘global’ rating system has become. A university in Melbourne , unable, it seems, to compete on the rather insane ranking system created by newspapers like the London Times, has decided to create its own ranking system. And who comes on top of this ranking system do you think? The city of Melbourne and a university that doesn’t even have a humanities school. Subjective or what? Apples and Pears or what? (link)

Here is a report done in the UK to help advance peer review processes for digital work in the arts and humanities. Peer review is a problematic issue, especially in Australia, in that many academics who don’t invest any intellectual energy into advancing digital work for humanistic purposes are (ironically) rewarded more than those academics that do advance it (ie. only peer-reviewed journal articles and books are quantifiable as ‘research’ whilst digital scholarship is marginalised). Another related problem is that many academics ‘critically’ understand popular and commercial software at the expense of a more scholarly appreciation of academic software. Let’s hope that these emerging peer-review processes can foster more well-rounded research. Peer processes not only need to recognise digital-scholarly-output, but they also need to make sure that academics are not unduly rewarded (through promotion, tenure, and other rewards) for not investing in digital technology.
The mechanisms for the evaluation and peer review of the traditional print outputs of scholarly research in the arts and humanities are well established, but no equivalent exists for assessing the value of digital resources and of the scholarly work which leads to their creation. This project proposes to establish a framework for evaluating the quality, sustainability and impact over time of digital resources for the arts and humanities, using History, in its broadest sense, as a case study (link).
Also, check out the criteria for promotion and tenure guidelines developed by the University of Maine, in the US:
Recognition and achievement in the field of new media must be measured by standards as high as but different from those in established artistic or scientific disciplines. As the reports from the American Council of Learned Societies, the Modern Language Association, and the University of Maine recommend, promotion and tenure guidelines must be revised to encourage the creative and innovative use of technology if universities are to remain competitive in the 21st century (link).

Here is a recorded talk given by the prolific Axel Bruns of QUT at the ATOM Conference 2006 (link). Like most somewhat commercially-orientated researchers, this researcher works in a very crowded field and his most potent contribution seems to be in teaching rather that definable original research. I.e. too much process orientation, and not enough context and content, and I can’t really see anything original and significant apart from Bruns changing the words to describe what is already pretty much well-known in main stream thought. And I am indifferent to his research networks; but this happens in research, even in small countries. Pockets of like-minded people appear that are hostile to alternative views, but luckily in crowded fields, they aren’t that difficult to go around (a small speed hump rather than a mountain). His recent book on blogs perhaps reveals what happens in crowded fields; researchers retreat into islands of like-minded people that lack fresh insight and the ability to explore significant other contributions beyond comfortable and predictable networks of ‘like minded’ people. I wonder if this is common in the academy and how it effects research output? Now there is a research proposal for you; a Randall Collins type enquiry into academic networks in crowded fields in Australia.

We have also identified a set of core social skills and cultural competencies that young people should acquire if they are to be full, active, creative, and ethical participants in this emerging (online) participatory culture:
Play — the capacity to experiment with your surroundings as a form of problem-solving
Performance — the ability to adopt alternative identities for the purpose of improvisation and discovery

This thread on the use of Wikipedia in the academy appeared earlier this year on the discussion list Humanist. Here is the link.
This message is a request for comment (the humanities version of a
RFC). 2006 appears to be the year that undergraduate students discovered
Wikipedia in a big way. My colleagues and I have been seeing an increasing
number of papers that use Wikipedia inappropriately as the sole or primary
reference. For example, I just read a paper about the relation between
Structuralism, Deconstruction, and Postmodernism in which every reference
was to the Wikipedia articles on those topics with no awareness that there
was any need to read a primary work or even a critical work. After writing
comments to a number of students on this topic, I set to work on a general
policy statement addressed to the student that might be shared among my
local community of scholars (see draft below). I thought such a statement
might be of general use. I welcome any suggestions from, or discussion by,
the Humanist community as well as pointers to any similar statements that
may exist. (Still to do is a one-paragraph version of such a statement
suitable for inclusion in a course syllabus.)
–Alan Liu, UC Santa Barbara
TO THE STUDENT: APPROPRIATE USE OF WIKIPEDIA
In recent years, Wikipedia (http://wikipedia.org) has become one of
the most important and useful resources on the Internet. Created by an open
community of authors (anyone can contribute, edit, or correct articles), it
has become a powerful resource for researchers to consult alongside other
established library and online resources. As in the case of all tools,
however, its value is a function of appropriateness. In the case of
college-level essays or research papers, students should keep in mind the
following two limitations, one applying to all encyclopedias, and the other
specifically to Wikipedia:

New media and cultural form: narrative versus database
Ilana Snyder
Monash University
To appear in 2004 in: A. Adams & S. Brindley (eds), Teaching English with ICT. London: Open University Press & McGraw Hill.
Why narrative and database
Stories define how we think, how we play, even how we dream: they represent a basic way of organising human experience. We understand our lives through stories. Barbara Hardy has argued famously that narrative is ‘a primary act of mind transferred to art from life’ (Hardy 1977: 12). The act of the storyteller, the author, the novelist, says Hardy, arises from what we do all the time, in remembering, dreaming, planning.

'bigger, faster, more'. Still, ebooks may eventually become more than just 'the delivery boy' of scholarship as Willard McCarthy of that wonderful email discussion list Humanist might say).

I discovered a very interesting opensourse 'social software' service called elgg.net today that on the surface, appears to be much better than that ugly old beast 'myspace' (elgg.net has a focus upon learning). This article by one the the writers on the elgg.net system, Ben Ward, tells it all.
In April 2005, the New York State Attorney General alleged that Intermix Media, an Internet marketing firm, was the source for illegally installed spyware that quietly launched ads on millions of computers across the country. They had created a website that allowed users to change their mouse cursor to one of their choosing (something that you can do anyway with a very minimal amount of tweaking) - and the catch was a pop up advertising engine that users inadvertently downloaded at the same time. Intermix Media eventually settled for nearly $8 million without admitting guilt.

I found a fantastic plugin for WordPress that reveals to others how to academically cite postings on your WordPress blog. What a wonderful contribution from the opensourse community!
(from Jeremy Douglass). This is an experiment I coded in a few minutes using Wordpress template tags, then added to the Single Post template page. Next steps might include making a switchable display that supported more formats (Chicago, APA, etc.) and wrapping it up as a Wordpress Plugin for portability and reuse. An advanced plugin might generate a link to a downloadable BibTex or EndNote entry, for direct compatibility with desktop reference manager software.
