Piloting Consumer Health Information Services in Collaboration with a Community Research Engagement Program     

Margaret Ansell  Michele R. Tennant  Vicki Piazza  Linda B. Cottler 《Medical reference services quarterly》2017,36(4):348-361

At an academic health science center, librarians partnered with a community research engagement program to offer a suite of consumer health information services. The services included training staff in the use of online consumer health resources, purchasing a print collection of monographs, and creating a guide to both the online and print resources for staff use. Focus groups were conducted to assess information needs, and the workshop attendees’ online health information competency was assessed presession and postsession. This article details planning and intervention efforts, and proposes future activities to meet the information needs of HealthStreet and its clients.  相似文献   

“But,We Don't Have a Library”: Exploring Approaches to Addressing Branch Campuses’ Library Needs     

Kirsten Hostetler  Michele DeSilva 《Public Services Quarterly》2016,12(2):87-112

Librarians at Central Oregon Community College's Barber Library explored how to best serve the needs of three satellite campuses across a large geographic region. While initially intending to start an embedded librarianship program, a pair of surveys showed the relationships and awareness necessary for the foundation of such a program were lacking. Using the information gathered in the surveys, the authors attempted to identify and implement methods for building better relationships and greater library awareness across all campuses.  相似文献

Correcting Biased Cohen’s Kappa in NVivo     

Sang-Yeon Kim  Scott S. Graham  Seokhoon Ahn  Michele K. Olson  Daniel J. Card  Molly M. Kessler 《Communication methods and measures》2016,10(4):217-232

This study demonstrates that NVivo, a popular research tool for content analysis, produces biased Cohen’s kappa as it calculates the reliability statistic at the character level, which is unsuitable for most content-analytic studies adopting a higher unit of analysis (e.g., sentence, paragraph). Based on empirical data and a statistical simulation, this study proposes a method of bias correction applicable to situations where two independent raters conduct binary coding.  相似文献   

Gleaning Meaning from Case Studies in International Comparison: teachers’ experiences of reform in Russia and South Africa     

Michele Schweisfurth 《Compare》1999,29(3):331-340

This paper considers how case study approaches may be used cross‐nationally. It outlines five key stages in the process of conducting case study research and of learning from it: selection, verification, cumulation, generalisation, and application. The research used to illustrate these principles is a study of teachers’ experiences of changes in education in post‐communist Russia and post‐apartheid South Africa.  相似文献   

Career progress in centralized academic systems: Social capital and institutions in France and Italy     

Michele Pezzoni  Valerio Sterzi  Francesco Lissoni 《Research Policy》2012,41(4):704-719

We analyze the role of social capital in academic careers. We distinguish between ties with reputed scientists and laboratories (scientific and technical human capital) and ties with influential actors with respect to recruitment/promotion decisions (political capital). We use institution-wise bibliometric indicators to measure separately the two types of capital for a large sample of French and Italian academic physicists between 2000 and 2003/2005. Controlling for scientific productivity, seniority and gender issues, career progress is explained by: the scientist's affiliation to important public research organizations (scientific and technical human capital - France); his/her social ties with senior members of the discipline, who exercise control over careers (political capital - Italy), and the commitment to work with senior colleagues in his/her own university (political capital - Italy). Significant differences exist between the two countries also with respect to the importance of productivity, seniority, and gender.  相似文献   

Getting Out of their Comfort Zone: Examining Teacher Candidates' Reactions to Service-Learning Abroad     

Michele Regalla 《Multicultural Perspectives》2016,18(2):65-72

This study presents data gathered from a service-learning trip to Costa Rica designed for teacher candidates. Data include participant responses to writing prompts, field notes, and follow-up questionnaires. Results show that participants' experience with the language barrier raised their empathy toward English learners. However, participants expressed dissonance regarding student behavioral norms.  相似文献
