This document discusses using Web 2.0 tools to support research activities like dissemination, collaboration, and knowledge transfer. It provides examples of social networks, reference managers, open archives, and collaborative writing platforms that can shape research practices. The document also lists specific Web 2.0 tools for the technology-enhanced learning (TEL) field like TELeurope, STELLAR Scientific Portal, TeLearn, and the TEL Thesaurus that support activities like forming groups, sharing materials, and visualizing Twitter discussions around TEL topics. Attendees at the event were asked to discuss which of their own research challenges could be addressed using Web 2.0 and to share their top Web 2.0 practices for research.

1. Using Web 2.0 in your PhD Peter Kraker and Marie Joubert @PeterKraker, @marievjoubert #jtelss11

3. UsingWeb 2.0 in research Dissemination via Preprints and Open Archives Collaborative reference management Mendeley: ~ 80 million papers Opening up of the research process: Open Science, Open Notebook Science Knowledge Transfer in Social Networks Use of “generic” tools such as newsgroups, blogs, Twitter, Google Docs The Web (2.0) shapes and changes research practices = Science 2.0
