Responsible and Inclusive Research Assessment: How to Communicate Your Impact Online

Researchers are increasingly asked to provide evidence and narratives of their impact within and beyond academia. As the University of Calgary and major Canadian funders have signed the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA), these statements are becoming more prominent, and researchers are encouraged to include more diverse types of research output and impact. Telling these stories and finding appropriate qualitative and quantitative evidence can be challenging. By the end of this session, learners will: 

  • Understand how the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) is changing research assessment practices in Canada and globally.  
  • Be able to plan their impact and tell their impact story including the significance, quality, and impact of broad scholarly contributions. 
  • Know how to access University of Calgary resources for collecting evidence to support their stories 
  • Begin to write their impact stories. 

This session is co-presented by Libraries and Cultural Resources and the Knowledge to Impact Team, Research Services Office.
