ACEEU is proud to have played a significant role in the development of the BETTER Life Socially Engaged Research (SER) Self-Assessment Tool by streamlining the SER journey for the BETTER Life project. The BETTER Life Self-Assessment Tool is an innovative digital platform designed to support researchers in assessing and enhancing the social engagement of their research activities.
Key features and benefits of the tool include:
1. SER diagnosis: Through a Diagnostic Survey, the tool assesses core aspects of socially engaged research and helps researchers identify their engagement strengths and areas for growth.
2. AI-Powered CV analysis: Using advanced NLP models like SciBERT and PubMedBERT, the tool analyzes researchers' CVs and links career achievements with SER metrics. Additionally, the tool offers personalized feedback and resource recommendations to align researchers' experiences with societal impact goals.
3. Sustainability framework: A strong focus of the tool is on user feedback and analytics to ensure the tool evolves to meet researchers' needs and responsiveness to new societal and research challenges.
4. Resource synchronization dashboard which enables real-time progress tracking and supports easy access to practical tools and training materials tailored to individual researcher needs.
Looking ahead, the framework used in developing the tool ensures that it remains relevant and adaptable to new research landscapes and technologies. By bridging gaps in engagement diagnostics, the SER Self-Assessment Tool aligns with BETTER Life's mission to foster innovation and drive meaningful societal impact.
