There's been a lot of ~discussion~ on Academic Twitter recently about positionality, reflexivity, and ethics in qualitative research. This feels like a good time to remind quantitative researchers that this applies to *all* paradigms. [see our paper, psyarxiv.com/xvrhm/]
ALT A table containing a list of different "Reflexive prompts" for quantitative research, across four different stages: Research question and design, Data collection, Data analysis and interpretation. Conclusions and framing. Includes questions such as "Why do I want to research this group?", "Am I intruding on this group?" "What do I gain from this research?"
It's #ThrowbackThursday! Let's bring the power of storytelling to the world of science communication. We asked media professionals at the Flemish public broadcaster how they connect to a larger audience - and how you can do the same with your research! parcos-project.eu/2021/12/sc…
#TBT It's never too early to start exploring the power of data! Last summer, we showcased a personalised weather forecast that presents weather data in a fun and engaging way to kids. Wouldn't you be curious about the weather on your birthday? 🌦parcos-project.eu/2021/06/en…#scicomm
From September till January 2022, 17 students of Media and Information Design at @LUCASchoolofArt created a wide range of participatory data stories on climate change, guided by the ParCos Storyteller tool. Read more about the results here: parcos-project.eu/2022/06/st…#scicomm

Huh huh. Voimia #Helsinki palkanlaskijoille. Joku it-suuntautunut toimittaja voisi selvittää, mikä tämä #Sarastia -järjestelmä oikein on. 34 tuntia kestävät eräajot kuulostavat siltä että palkkatietoreikäkortit viedään aikakoneella 70-luvulle ja takaisin. hs.fi/kaupunki/art-200000891…
I've been using Mendeley Desktop daily for years, & have an annotated library of thousands of pdfs. Today, I switched to Zotero. Here's a 🧵of tips on how to do this, if you're also tired of Elsevier's BS and want to make the switch w/minimal effort while maintaining workflow.
Very excited that @VRT and @LUCASchoolofArt's @ACMIMX paper on data video storytelling won Best Paper Award last Friday! Read more about engaging families with data through a personalised weather forecast here: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/35052…#scicomm
