MacPFD Blast:
Delivering development to your inbox


MacPFD is pleased to offer new digital content and we are continually developing new resources to support faculty development. This newsletter will regularly highlight featured content and promote our blogs, podcasts, recorded webinars, and other online resources.
In Case You Missed It...
Writing Collaboratively: Secrets to Increased Scholarly Productivity
 Originally presented as part of the 14th Annual Day in Faculty Development, on May 25th, 2021.
 
Yusuf Yilmaz
Approaches for conducting research, from identifying the research problem to reporting findings, has evolved using different online tools and technology when working collaboratively. Online tools enabled researchers to work together in remote settings. However, choosing among the various tools can be quite overwhelming for most faculty members due to the wide use area and technical difficulties to decide which works the best for the research.
 
Learn more about our 14th Annual Day in Faculty Development, here.
MacPFD has transformed the ways in which we support and build the skills of faculty members and senior trainees who teach and mentor our students by transitioning all development offerings to online learning opportunities. In the last year we have provided open access to more than 3,000 faculty members and guests to over 100 digital events including webinars, conferences, podcasts, articles, and video content. We have 7 teams with over 50 faculty member volunteers developing new content and online training opportunities.
 
Have you joined one of our events this past year? Perhaps you’ve listened to our Spark podcast? Viewed one of our videos on YouTube? We need your help to keep creating this incredible content, and keeping it free to the public! Interested in helping?
 
When you make a gift, you will join the effort to inspire the development of teaching and learning and allow our researchers, scholars, leaders, and clinicians to achieve success as educators. Your gift will support MacPFD to continue to generate new freely available events and maintain an open access digital library.

Bibliometrics | Scholarly Secrets
In the twenty-seventh episode of MacPFD Spark, we will listen to Jack Young from the McMaster library discuss quantifying scholarly impact. Jack will discuss the shift from institutions and individuals beginning to utilize citations in the academic realm into a more accurate representation of author impact through bibliometrics. Next, we will be listening to Dr. Shawn Mondoux discuss some less tacitly known scholarly secrets and how to employ them in your own works.

Interviewer - Dr. Teresa Chan
