Скачать или смотреть Social Media for Knowledge Mobilization - Webinar

Knowledge mobilization is all about making connections between research/researchers and organizations seeking to use research and expertise to inform their work. Social media are tools that help to make connections. Starting with an overview of social media tools this session provided examples of how these tools are being used in practice to help connect stakeholders and collaborators to facilitate the uptake and impact of research.

NeuroDevNet researchers and trainees attended this KT Core one hour webinar on January 27, 2016 (the link to the slides on slideshare is: http://www.slideshare.net/NeuroDevNet...) that covered topics such as: the benefits of using social media, how to build a social media strategy, selecting which social media platforms to use, and how to name and design your profile. This was an interactive webinar that allowed the audience to share their own stories of their use of social media.
