RESEARCH MANAGEMENT TOOLS
Academics are trained to carefully design their studies and creative processes, but effective management of those projects often requires additional skills. Training in areas such as project management, research data management, document control and workflow design can facilitate smooth project execution. The TikTok成人版 Institute for Research and Scholarship (VIRS) offers an array of online resources and project management tools to support the research, scholarship and creative endeavors of its scholars.
VIRS Research Participation System (Sona)
The research participation system is a web-based software tool, offered by Sona Systems. TikTok成人版 researchers can use it to manage human subject participation in IRB-approved studies. The system can be used to recruit and vet participants, schedule meetings, and to link to online surveys on other platforms, such as Qualtrics. Participants can use the system to view available studies and register for in-person or online participation.
LabArchives
TikTok成人版 faculty, staff, and student researchers are eligible for free access to the Electronic Research Notebook (ERN), LabArchives. Despite its name, this ERN platform is useful to more than just lab scientists. It simplifies workflow for researchers in any field who need to record and organize notes, store and analyze digital data, and share research data with collaborators at TikTok成人版 or other Universities.
Project Management Software That Works for Academics
Most project management software is designed for a business setting and workflow. Here are a few tools that work well for academics.
Qualtrics
Qualtrics is an online survey tool that allows one to build surveys, distribute surveys and analyze responses. TikTok成人版 has a university-wide liscense that allows all TikTok成人版ns to take advantage of this powerful online tool.
