DESCRIPTION
This lecture is a part of a workshop where researchers learn the basics of blogging. Skrivstuga.se is a sandbox site where the course participants write and interact in a closed environment (that also contains all the course material). Do you work at a university? Do you want to tell the world what you are passionate about? Of course you do. Read more on http://skrivstuga.se on how you and your colleagues also can learn this. Testimonials from participants: "Lots of good information and fun to try. I had not thought of using social media like that in my research." "Informing and inspiring. Very good with the hands-on exercise." "The topic was very well presented and explained and I learned a lot about blogging, which I knew very little about prior to the lecture. The assignment was also very well organized, with an excellent website" "Very interesting, useful and inspirational. I really liked the seminar and workshop" "Even better and even more inspiring. And important, this should probably be more emphasized generally at the department. It is important for it to be seen, especially since our research is generally quite applied and graspable for the public." "I thought this was really fun. It was interactive and it’s cool to see the blog posts rolling in and to read what others are writing and thinking about. This one I would do again to practice blog writing anytime!" "Very interesting and fun."TRANSCRIPT
