research

Hello,

As a final year student of International Business, I am conducting a research into the organisational culture of firms within the web development industry. Your insight on the subject would be very useful to this end. I will need several participants from each organisation to complete a questionnaire, taking roughly 30 minutes.
When I get the data, I’ll be able to provide the results back to all participant organisations, showing them what their culture is, and how it compares to other web development firms.

Hello everyone,

Thanks to everyone who attended the Bof at DrupalCon Amsterdam (https://amsterdam2014.drupal.org/bof/study-drupal-community-academia-wha...)!
Here is a list of proposed ideas after the discussion we had (original notes at http://piratepad.net/NaQmajFssg):

• Create Group at Drupal.org
• Create a wiki page in the Drupal group to include the current publications.
• Also list the people who are actually doing research on Drupal, to put names on them.

Hello,

Researchers at Oregon State University are striving to conduct research to
learn more about the free/open source software community landscape as it
relates to older adults. We’re looking for older adults who are older than
50 and are currently involved with a free/open source software project. You
will be excluded from the study if you are younger than 50, have not
contributed to a free/open source software project, or are not fluent in
English. If you’re interested, we will either do an in-person interview (if

Hello,

I am a master’s student in the School of Information and Library Science at UNC. I am doing my master’s paper research on Drupal project success factors and perceptions. If you have been a stakeholder in a Drupal project, please consider taking this survey: http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/230306/drupal-success-factors-survey

Please contact me at mthomas8 at gmail.com if you have any questions about the research. Please feel free to repost/forward this message to other Drupal users and usergroups.

Thank you,

Matt Thomas

Hey all! We're conducting a 13-question survey to better understand what users of Drupal find lacking in several areas, including themes, e-commerce, and support. The responses will be used for data in a series of free reports for the community, and also to help us create products/services that better serve your needs. Personal/contact information is optional. We'll also be sharing the (anonymized) results so they can benefit everyone. Thanks!

I just submitted a session/BoF/panel proposal for DrupalCon in Szeged suggesting ways of helping Drupal make greater inroads in the education sector (including research): http://szeged2008.drupalcon.org/sessions/what-does-education-sector-need.... Any feedback is appreciated.

I thought I'd start a thread where we could discuss what else the Drupal in Education/Drupal in Academia and Research crowd can do in Szeged. Please post comments with suggestions/ideas for other sessions, BoFs, or just let each other know who's coming.

I was doing some research and came across these 2 directories. I thought might be inspirational. Please add more

thanks

I've just come across the fantastic software for social bookmarking for academics Connotea (see http://www.connotea.org) and started thinking about the many great projects out there which we could either learn from or integrate into Drupal. Of course, there are some obvious candidates such as Moodle, Elgg, Gallery2 that we all know about. But what about services such as Shelfari or LibraryThing? So I thought I'd start a thread where we could talk about what others are doing and how we can benefit from their hard work.
