Summary:
The poster will provide a roadmap of how to track and use alternative metrics (altmetrics) to provide evidence of attention or engagement of individual research outlets. Altmetrics are non-traditional metrics proposed as an alternative/complement to citation impact metrics. They provide information about the attention and influence of research of an article or publication and are based on interactions and conversations about scholarly content that occur online, mainly on social media platforms. One of the benefits of altmetrics is that they can accrue sooner than traditional metrics (citations) as they do not depend on the long process of conventional scholarly communication. Examples of altmetrics include mentions on Twitter, in news releases, in blogs, citations in policy documents, number of downloads, and more. As altmetrics are becoming more popular than ever in the evaluation of research, you can include them in your CV, grant proposal, personal website, and your promotion and tenure dossier. This poster shows useful sources and tools to track alternative metrics.

In this program, criminologist Joseph D. Lohman sketches the relationship of prison administration to the inmate community and the ways in which the inmates’ group influences the administration. An inmate's views about who really controls the operation of a prison are expressed during an on-location interview. Burke and Lohman explore the prisoner’s role, both legitimate and otherwise, in prison management, and discuss the redirection of this community activity into legitimate channels which a professional staff can provide. Lohman notes the need for constructive outlets for individual and group expression, without which inmate energies are directed into hostile and anti-social channels.

Demonstrates the strange and contradictory particle and wave behavior of electrons. Suggests that the atomic system seemingly hides any way by which its behavior may be understood. Explains that the scientist has had to approach the study of sub-atomic particles in an oblique manner. Discusses the "uncertainty principle" and the place of "statistical method." Suggests that because atomic behavior can be amplified, the whole world is affected by the statistical probability of atomic behavior. Dr. Teller presents his personal view that the behavior od atoms, like the future, is neither certain nor predictable. (KQED) Film.
Why is it so important to get your eyes examined? What happens during an eye exam? When should someone see their doctor? Most people think the purpose of an eye exam is to update prescriptions and get new, trendy glasses, but the full purpose is much more extensive. Throughout an exam, patients will be tested for early onset and even undiagnosed diseases as well as be treated for vision loss. Experts in the field concur that it is important to see your optometrist every two to three years, depending on your age, to maintain your eye health and prevent vision loss at a later age. Through a review of current literature, the paper will analyze why patients should see their optometrist regularly and clarify the benefits that come with maintaining good eye health habits.
