Good news! The Academic Reputation Dataset is now on Tableau

http://www.iu.qs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/qsiu_logo7.pngBy .  We are delivering a service called the Academic Reputation Dataset to the institutions, for which we set up a new online analytics platform. But before I explain what the changes are for the user, let me get back to what this service really is. 
The Academic Reputation Dataset is a data-rich solution for measuring academic performance and institutional brand recognition. It is a benchmarking tool exclusive for World Top 300 institutions that enables them to further analyse their academic performance and institutional brand perception, comparing it against a selection of at least 15 peers over a period of 3 years.

5 étapes clés pour gérer sa e-réputation, actif stratégique pour les entreprises

S’il y a un actif stratégique pour le développement de l’entreprise, c’est bien sa réputation. Celle-ci est évaluée sur des indicateurs majeurs comme la qualité des prestations ou encore la confiance, c’est pourquoi les entreprises s’efforcent de recréer du lien avec leurs consommateurs, mais aussi leurs actionnaires, les associations militantes et évidemment leurs salariés.

http://static.guim.co.uk/static/c55907932af8ee96c21b7d89a9ebeedb4602fbbf/common/images/logos/the-guardian/news.gifAltmetrics may prove to be a more flexible and versatile tool to inform research assessment, if academics get behind it. Alternative metrics, or altmetrics as they are more commonly known, have received a lot of attention recently. Blogs, conferences and papers examine these new measures of attention surrounding published research and consider whether they are the good, the bad, or the ugly brother of bibliometrics – an indication of the number of research papers published and how often they are cited.

Giving Credit Where Credit Is Due

By Philip G. Altbach - The World ViewThis blog is not about awarding credit for academic work. Rather it concerns assigning author credit to reports that are published by many organizations.

The Importance of Reputation and Name Recognition

The EvoLLLutionBy  - EvoLLLution.
1. Why did you decide not to enroll in a higher education institution in your home country?
I’ve lived in four different countries; America is actually my fourth. I’ve done schooling in all these countries. Why I preferred coming to America over these other countries was not because of any influence of education. It was purely because the chance presented itself to me. Before I got into MSU [Michigan State University], I was part of MSU Dubai, which was a branch started in Dubai. At first I was planning to join one of the American universities in Dubai, but then when I heard Michigan State started a branch, I took the opportunity to enroll. More...

I. Vérifier ses mots de passe
La révélation à de quoi faire rire, mais elle est plutôt alarmante. Le cabinet spécialisé SplashData vient en effet de réaliser un classement des mots de passe les plus utilisés en 2013. Et les internautes ont manifestement fait le choix de la simplicité, avec des mots de passe tels que "123456" ou, plus compliqué, "12345678", voire même "password" ("mot de passe" en anglais).
