Informatique et schiences humaines

Clifford Lynch, directeur de la Coalition for Networked Information (CNI), nous nous invite à visiter le site du Center for the Study of Higher Education (CSHE) à l’Université de la Californie à Berkeley. Son courriel mentionne que plusieurs essais sont librement diffusés, dont :

• The Influence of Academic Values on Scholarly Publication and Communication Practices. Diane Harley, Sarah Earl-Novell, Jennifer Arter, Shannon Lawrence, and C. Judson King. CSHE.13.06. (September 2006).
• Why Study Users? An Environmental Scan of Use and Users of Digital: Resources in Humanities and Social Sciences Undergraduate Education. Diane Harley, Jonathan Henke, Shannon Lawrence. CSHE.15.06. (September 2006).
• IT Engagement in Research: A Baseline Study. 2006. Harvey Blustain, Act IV Consulting, Inc., with Sandra Braman, ECAR and University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee; Richard N. Katz, ECAR; and Gail Salaway, ECAR. 147 pages.
  

  This study explores the practices and perspectives of IT organizations that support the academic research enterprise. To collect, analyze, and distribute information across an expanding range academic disciplines and geographic locations, research efforts rely heavily on IT infrastructure, people, and a broad range of IT services. Ever-larger data sets are being collected and shared, simulations and visualization are becoming routine tools, and the co-evolution of science and computing increasingly requires scientists to have solid grounding in information management. This ECAR study reports the results of a variety of research initiatives: a literature review, quantitative and qualitative data from 328 higher education institutions (315 U.S. and 13 Canadian institutions), and five in-depth cases studies.

Peut-être y a-t-il des liens à faire avec l’utilisation académique des carnets web ? (ps. je préfère cette expression à blogue…)
