\section{Introduction: scientific communication}
\begin{frame}{abstract}
Menulis saat ini bukannya menjadi salah satu bentuk akuntabilitas riset. Tetapi juga menjadi indikator kinerja seorang akademia (periset/dosen/mahasiswa dll). Namun demikian saat ini pemikiran kita hanya selalu berisi beberapa pertanyaan berikut: terindeks Scopus atau tidak?, berapa \textit{impact factor} nya?, atau kalau saya menulis topik ini apakah akan meningkatkan indeks sitasi saya atau tidak ya? Hal ini diperburuk dengan pola pikir bahwa tugas kita menulis hasil riset kemudian mempublikasikannya di jurnal. Terserah akan diapakan oleh penerbit jurnal tersebut. Kini menjadi lebih mengemuka lagi saat pemikiran tersebut menjadi persyaratan administrasi pangkat dan jabatan atau insentif.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{abstract}
Saya tidak mengatakan bahwa indikator tersebut salah, tapi menurut kemudian kita menjadi lupa dengan esensi menjadi seorang akademia, yaitu: melakukan riset untuk membantu masyarakat (atau bangsa dalam skala luas), melaporkannya, dan menyebarluaskannya untuk diketahui khalayak. Menulis seolah menjadi beban berat. Sepertinya, belum apa-apa sudah memikirkan Scopus, indeks sitasi, dll. Pada akhirnya tidak jadi menulis. Malah salah bukan.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{abstract}
Dalam paparan ini saya menyampaikan bahwa saat ini telah terjadi perkembangan yang luar biasa, bernama Open Science. Aliran ini bertumpu kepada prinsip bahwa ilmu itu terbuka dan milik semua orang. Dengan demikian maka indikator kinerja seorang akademiapun harus ditambah dengan instrumen-instrumen yang lebih terbuka. Bahwa Scopus index, impact factor, dan indeks sitasi adalah pekerjaan panjang yang tidak berhenti saat kita menerima email "accepted". Partisipasi redaksi jurnal dan penerbit juga berperan dalam mencapainya. Untuk itu diperlukan komunikasi saintifik (science communication) yang handal.
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{abstract}
Karena itu saya mengusulkan masyarakat akademia untuk:
\begin{itemize}
\item terus menulis: dalam media formal maupun non formal,
\item menggunakan indikator \emph{impact factor}, \emph{Scopus Indexing} dengan tidak berlebihan, serta memahami bahwa \emph{citation index} adalah sebuah indikator \emph{outcome}, bukan indikator proses,
\item mengutamakan media \emph{open access} dan sajikan data mentah secara terbuka,
\item mencoba menghasilkan artikel dalam Bahasa Inggris,
\item memanfaatkan \emph{social media}.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}
\metroset{block=fill}
\begin{exampleblock}{Pilihan di tangan kita.}
\begin{itemize}
\item Apakah akan menjadi akademia yang tertutup atau terbuka.
\item Apakah kita akan menjalin jejaring luas atau puas dalam 'tempurung' saja.
\item dan Apakah menjadi makhluk yang mensyukuri nikmat dan tidak kikir membagi ilmu atau sebaliknya.
\end{itemize}
\end{exampleblock}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{definitions}
\metroset{block=fill}
\begin{exampleblock}{scientific/scholarly communication according to \href{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_communication}{Wikipedia}}
\begin{itemize}
\item refers to public communication presenting science-related topics to non-experts.
\item aims to generate support for scientific research or study, or to inform decision making, including political and ethical thinking.
\item emphasizes on explaining methods and findings.
\end{itemize}
\end{exampleblock}

\begin{frame}{research cycle}

\begin{frame}{so what is impact factor and why is it important?}
\begin{quote}
The journal Impact Factor is the average number of times articles from the journal published in the past two years have been cited in the JCR year. The Impact Factor is calculated by dividing the number of citations in the JCR year by the total number of articles published in the two previous years. (\href{admin-apps.webofknowledge.com/JCR/help/h_impfact.htm}{Thomson Reuters: Web of Science})
\end{quote}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{so what is impact factor and why is it important?}
Hence IF reflects:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textcolor{blue}{age}: the operational period of the medium (journal)
\item \textcolor{blue}{visibility}: meaning older journals are read by more people than younger journals
\item \textcolor{blue}{recognition}: meaning more citations
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[standout]
\begin{itemize}
\item is it important? some would say \textbf{yes}
\item does it apply to all of us? definitely \textbf{no}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{my citation index/H-index is high, what is good about it?}
CI reflects:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textcolor{blue}{age}: old articles have higher chance to get more citations than recent ones,
\item \textcolor{blue}{contextual}: articles match with certain issues will attract more readers,
\item \textcolor{blue}{closed-calculation}: CI is calculated based on articles which are published in journals that include in the \href{http://isiknowledge.com/wos}{WoS} indexing database.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[standout]
\begin{itemize}
\item is it important? some would say \textbf{yes}
\item does it apply to all of us? definitely \textbf{NO}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{indexed by Scopus is important, why?}
Indexed by Scopus means:
\begin{itemize}
\item journal/conference registration by journal/conference editorial,
\item selection by Scopus team based on Scopus criteria,
\item recognition (\textcolor{blue}{to some parties}).
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[standout]
\begin{itemize}
\item is it important? to some extent \textbf{yes}
\item does it apply to all of us? definitely \textbf{NO}
\end{itemize}

\section{current state: legacy scientific media}
\begin{frame}{characteristics}
\begin{exampleblock}{legacy scientific media characteristics}
\textcolor{blue}{Closed-system}: readers (and even authors) have to be subscribed!
\begin{itemize}
\item \textcolor{blue}{closed data} (electronic supplementary data services are available with fee),
\item \textcolor{blue}{blind peer-review} (pre publication)
\item \textcolor{blue}{closed-loop distribution}, copyright transfer agreement

\item make a literature review paper as the basis of the proposal, and publish it,
\item uploads preliminary data set in accessible repository.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{stage 2: research implementation}
\begin{itemize}
\item blog about it,
\item using \href{http://osf.io}{Open Science Framework}, make a Wiki page,
\item publish a short communication or Early Research Outcome (eg on \href{www.riojournal.com}{RIOJournal})
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{stage 3: report writing and publications}
\begin{itemize}
\item make a report and upload it along with the data set to accessible repository (eg:
\href{www.figshare.com}{Figshare},
\href{www.zenodo.org}{Zenodo}, or
\href{http://osf.io}{OSF}) or self archiving system,
\item cite the repository in your papers,
\item post the repository on socmed (read \href{http://www.slideshare.net/flxlex/how-and-why-i-use-blogging?qid=19764e8a-1bdc-4878-b275-497c85cd664f&v=&b=&from_search=7}{How and why I use blogging}).
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{stage 3: report writing and publications}
\begin{itemize}
\item Where to publish?
\item How much does it cost?
\item Do we still have rights?
\begin{itemize}
\item open access vs conventional/legacy journals.
\item problem with open access: \texttt{article publishing cost}
\item problem with legacy journals: \texttt{copyright transfer agreement}
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{stage 4: dissemination}
\begin{itemize}
\item it's about how to increase impact: via \texttt{online visibility}
\item what are the tools? You can try: \href{www.impactstory.org}{ImpactStory} or \href{www.growkudos.com}{GrowKudos}

\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{stage 4: dissemination}
\begin{itemize}
\item go to conferences

\href{www.growkudos.com}{Growkudos}
\item snail (e)mail to colleagues, use signatures (insert \href{www.orcid.org}{ORCID} or Google Scholar Site).
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{scientific social media vs open access space}
\begin{itemize}
\item is RG/Academia an open access space?
\item answer: no, they're socmeds
\item they offers archiving facilities in return of selling ads.
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{stage 5: data set management}
\begin{itemize}
\item make it accessible. Read: \href{http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue64/datacite-2010-rpt}{Making Datasets Visible and Accessible: DataCite's First Summer Meeting} and \href{http://schoolofdata.org/2015/11/06/making-open-data-accessible-to-data-science-beginners/}{Making open data accessible to data science beginners})
\item use general and public formats (eg: odt, csv, etc). Read: \href{https://bersains.wordpress.com/2016/04/25/membuat-data-geosains-dapat-didata-dan-dirujuk/}{Membuat Data Geosains Dapat Didata dan Dirujuk}.
\item use \href{http://doi.org}{DOI}.
