HOW TO WRITE AUTHORS PAGES, VIA OPEN CONTENT CURATION AND CREATION

One of the ideas to be developed in the Social Web Lab is the following: in academic communities, many colleagues do not cite other colleagues. Which, to say the least, does not coincide with the dialogism that should be inherent to scientific communities and their researchers, teachers and students. It seems to us that this situation constitutes not so much what are called the 'good practices' of the academy, but what we can call 'a-ethical practices', or, in the long term, almost 'unsustainable practices' perpetrated by some units of investigation.

Therefore, we invite authors to propose content about their work and, in cases of co-authorship, also about their team's initiatives. The Social Web Lab will disseminate their writing acroos local and global networks.

The central objective is to publish this open content curation on the Social Web Lab website, within the framework of an open investigation underlying an international scientific democracy. One of the possible methods and media to disseminate will be the construction of an author’s scientific, technological or artistic path or life story, in terms of production of works, but also considering a social life story, lived and shared, by each author, among them, or with their readers and/or publics, both institutional or informal audiences.

In sum, each knowledge author is as well a social actor.

Here are some possible content options to propose for an author page on the Web Lab website:

BASIC CONTENT CURATION

1. Biobibliography or CV of authors, updated for 2025.

2. Five of your most representative works, via bibliographic references and PDFs, or links to a university Repository, Google disk, etc.

EXPERT AREA KNOWLEDGE CURATION

3. Posts for blogs or social networks;

4. Commented textual quotations, from your texts or those of other authors;

5. Short texts or mini essays;

6. News or Chronicles (journalistic, philosophical, sociological, literary, artistic, etc.) about current local or global events;

7. Reviews of texts (books, articles), classic or recent.

8. Images, videos (one video, lists, galleries, etc.), 2D/3D animations.

9. Presentations, including interactive or intermediate content (Power Point, Prezi, e-books, apps, virtual / augmented / mixed / hybrid realities)

10. e-books, apps, virtual / augmented / mixed / hybrid.

11. Other suggestions.
