Tracking digital impact (TDI): a case study for embedding impact analysis in research using BCE practitioners.

Whittemore, Simon

Abstract

The TDI project explored the types of digital engagement that are currently in use and how they are monitored. The project assessed what BCE skills, digital focused and traditional, that were available in the institutions and set out to share and embed these skills and experiences across all partners. The project aimed to develop new standards and processes that could form a set of guidelines for implementing effective monitoring procedures for projects undertaking public, business and community engagement through digital technologies. The guidelines were intended to embed digital engagement practices in to researcher led activities which could potentially conform to institutional level policies through a uniform approach. It was intended that the benefits of the new guidelines would be demonstrated through an active case study showing measurable results.
