The last panel of the day: Research Priorities. Live streaming shortly at uc.edu/ucit/digitalvi… #2013preconf #stccorg

Speakers: Sid Benavente, Pat Burrows, Saul Carliner, Charlotte Robidoux. Moderated by Rebekka Andersen #2013preconf #stcgorg

Past research agenda themes have consistently emphasized connection with industry. #2013preconf #stcorg

#1 question from industry: Why do users access information the way they do? #2013preconf #stcorg

Benavente: Disconnect between priorities of academia and industry. How do we bridge this disconnect? #2013preconf #stcorg

Teams lack mental models for writing collaboratively. A solution is to create a playbook for writing collaboratively. #2013preconf #stcorg

Carliner: What are we still asking the same basic questions now that we have been asking for 30 years? #2013preconf #stcorg

Answers: The (lack of) reward system in academia for researching industry-demand topics because of timesink issues. #2013preconf #stcorg

Comments: Taught by other dept; industry funds tech centers, why not fund communication centers; #2013preconf #stcorg

Comments: Dept. location within the university (English dept vs. tech or science); Time from research to publication. #2013preconf #stcorg

Industry turnaround expectations vs. actual time available to produce research. #2013preconf #stcorg

Need research about what actually takes place in the workplace. Job descriptions <>not equal actual work being done #2013preconf #stcorg

TC is an unknown in Industry and Academia -- we have a PR problem. Can't quantify TC value. #2013preconf #stcorg

How do people perceive TC in industry and academy? Profile professionals in their actual jobs, & profile departments. #2013preconf #stcorg

Study application and impacts on enterprise tech on publishing practices and the work of TC. #2013preconf #stcorg

Kudos indeed to the technical staff at U Cincinnati for the live streaming. #2013preconf #stcorg
