Jones, Kristin A. Briney, Abigail Goben, Dorothea Salo, Andrew Asher, and Michael R. Perry* https://crl.acrl.org/index.php/crl/article/view/24374/32199 “Universities are pursuing learning analytics practices to improve returns from their investments, develop behavioral and academic interventions to improve student success, and address political and financial pressures. Academic libraries are additionally undertaking learning analytics to demonstrate value to stakeholders, assess learning gains from instruction, and analyze student-library usage, et cetera. The adoption of these techniques leads to many professional ethics issues and practical concerns related to privacy. In this narrative literature review, we provide a foundational background in the field of learning analytics, library adoption of these practices, and identify ethical and practical privacy issues.” Posted on: April 18, 2020, 6:41 am Category: UncategorizedBy: Stephen Abram

9 WAYS TO AVOID PANICKING ABOUT CURRENT EVENTS 9 WAYS TO AVOID PANICKING ABOUT CURRENT EVENTS https://blogs.webmd.com/mental-health/20200302/9-ways-to-avoid-panicking-about-current-events “Given that the world is currently experiencing a crisis due to COVID-19, it is not surprising that many people may experience some level of anxiety. It’s normal to be concerned, worried or even a bit fearful when there is so much uncertainty. But what should you do if the worry becomes overwhelming? In this article, a clinical psychologist offers practical suggestions to avoid feeling anxious when thrust into circumstances that are beyond our control. He acknowledges that no single exercise is necessarily going to work as a “magic bullet that frees you from anxiety.” However, practicing the suggested methods in combination as a mind/body/spirit approach should be an effective strategy to combat anxiety.”THINK

ABSTRACT
> Research on the development of science has focused on the creation> of
> multidisciplinary teams. However, while this coming together of> people
> is symmetrical, the ideas, methods, and vocabulary of science have a > directional flow. We present a statistical model of the text of > dissertation abstracts from 1980 to 2010, revealing for the first> time
> the large-scale flow of language across fields. Results of the > analysis include identifying methodological fields that export > broadly, emerging topical fields that borrow heavily and expand, and > old topical fields that grow insular and retract. Particular> findings
> show a growing split between molecular and ecological forms of> biology
> and a sea change in the humanities and social sciences driven by the > rise of gender and ethnic studies. Direct to Full Text Article (Preprint)_15 pages; PDF.”_

PUBLIC RADIO PROGRAM ON LIBRARIES “Last week a wonderful 4-part program on libraries was released by public radio’s Humankind producer David Freudberg. www.humanmedia.org/product/libraries-reimagined This wonderful program covers a wide variety of library related issues, always pointing out that libraries are one of the last places that people can go to no matter who they are, free of charge. (Total transparency–I was interview for a segment of this program concerning “fake news” and information overload which appears in Part 4.) The entire program is well worth the time it takes to listen. Freudberg encourages everyone to “pass it on”. The program is freely available.” Posted on: April 18, 2020, 6:17 am Category: UncategorizedBy: Stephen Abram
