From June, 2 to June, 5, and from June, 8 to June, 12, the scientists improved their skills on using the Web Of Science platform which is intended for formal evaluation of scientific activity results and includes certain scientometric indicators.
In particular, the Web Of Science allows to determine the number of documents published by a scientist, an establishment, a country, the number of quotations and the editions they were made in, and automatically calculate the h-index and average quotation rate. There are also tools to help determine how these data look in comparison with average world levels, and whether the works are quoted more often, what kinds of cooperation are more successful, what establishments are more productive and efficient in joint projects realization, why a certain establishment has better scores, what experiences should be borrowed etc.
The organizers of the webinars were the Clarivate Analytics Company. Iryna Tykhonova, an expert in informational and analytic sources and teaching of the company, became the lecturer for the course. Registered participants could receive certificates after meeting the main requirement, that is to be present at 90% of the lectures.
