3. Research question
Can we evaluate digital products and publications with
current quality indicators and the same procedures of
printed publications?
Do we need alternatives to the peer review?
4. What?
Publications with an editorial process (PDF)
Hybrid only with documentation
NOT publications which are marked, hypertextual, dynamic,
multimedia and INTERDISCIPLINARY:
− LOM, OER
− Blog Website
− WIKI
− Text analysis
− Digital asset
9. HOW?
Peer review
− QI based upon affiliation and disciplinar
consensu
− Cultural barriers, bias
Bibliometrics
− QI Citations, quantitative measurements
− Impact Factors, H-index, Eigenfactor
− Examples: Scimago, Latindex, Publish or
Perish, Google Scholar
Combination of the two
− Examples: Mesur, Merlot, Open Edit
10. Collaborative Assessment Tool: KOS
Construction of an ontology which evidences the
junctions / hubs and relationships existing between
digital publications in the Digital Humanities in Italy
Construction of a Knowledge Organisation System, as
a supporting tool for the choices of quality evaluation.
Included in Linking Open Data Project Cloud (LOD),
which is at the moment the most important concrete
development of the Semantic Web.
11. Conclusions
Some solutions can be found to the evaluation of digital
products and publications by taking advantage of
information and communication technology
There is the need to analyze and propose solutions to
theoretical, organizational, educational and legislative issues
to ensure a virtuous cycle of publications evaluation.
