Description

Conducting a research thesis is a long-term undertaking. In order to complete their research, doctoral candidates often have to develop a bunch of informal skills on their own. Acquisition and practice of those skills can advantageously be translated into timesaving and efficiency in their everyday tasks.

The objective of this seminar is to combine theoretical and practical guidelines to help doctoral candidates develop the appropriate praxis to explore digital resources, get more pertinent information, and optimize their informational awareness in order to:

1) better deal with the ever-evolving Web technologies and
2) develop their Personal Learning-Research Environment (PLE).

The seminar will mainly focus on three poles:
1. Acquiring skills in the fields of documentary, bibliographical and scientific information search on the Web;
2. Developing and/or improving efficiency in personal organization and collaborative work through fresh methodologies and better awareness and uses of Web 2.0;
3. Sensitizing and/or improving knowledge in digital copyright issues in teaching and research.

This CUSO seminar is an opportunity for each participant to share his or her own experiences. It will enable participants to work with the proposed methods and tools so as to better transfer them into current practices. It will further be extended in the form of an online forum inviting discussion to enforce a community of interest and contribute to a shared resource center.

The Digital Soft Skills seminars are scheduled across two different days. Participants may attend one or both days: a separate registration is required for each.
