•
2 gefällt mir•1,194 views
Using social media can benefit researchers in several ways: - It can increase the visibility and impact of research by engaging other researchers and the public. - Platforms like blogs, Twitter, and LinkedIn allow researchers to connect with peers, meet potential collaborators, and stay up to date in their fields. - An online presence establishes a researcher's public profile and reputation, which can improve their competitiveness for funding and opportunities. Maintaining social media accounts requires strategies like defining objectives, choosing appropriate tools, developing a network, and encouraging discussion around one's work. With practice, social media can help deepen engagement and dissemination of a researcher's work.
