Come along to this hands-on interactive workshop for a chance to explore the use of social media tools as a way of improving your practice in an academic research context.

Social media is booming. You can now find user-generated content in just about every sphere of life: politics, music, history, you name it and it can be found. What about academic research? Are the critics right to sneer at social media as a trivial, time wasting activity, or could there be a real benefit to the researchers who do engage with social media tools? This hands-on interactive workshop is a chance to explore the use of social media tools as a way of improving your practice in an academic research context.

Aimed at: research staff and postgraduate researchers
