  1. eXploreChemical Information Teaching Resources Ira Fresen, Gregor Zimmermann, René Deplanque - FIZ CHEMIE • IUPAC 46th General Assembly 2011

  2. Chemical Information Today • chemical information in Germany: • neglected • no textbooks • barely part of chemistry education large variety of available data sources increasing amount of data many different searching tools and user interfaces resources for teaching materials are widely scattered

  3. The Beginning 2004: first idea off an interdivisional workshop between the CIC Division of the GDCh and the CINFDivision of the ACS 2005: first CIC-CINFworkshop, formation of the CIC-CINF Collaborative Working Group, definition of common interests 2006: MISSION STATEMENT: “The mission of the CIC-CINF Collaborative Working Group is to foster a transnational dialogue to develop a shared approach for the access, exchange and management of chemical information.” principle aim “build a center for chemical information teaching resources for educators and instructors”

  4. Goals bundling of globally distributed teaching material repository for deposition and communication used as general teaching aid hub in which the international chemical information community can come together to share, debate and reach consensus on teaching issues

  5. Parameters for Development • Web 2.0 features • free use, open to all interested parties • easily available, applicable to advance scientific discovery and innovation • material adaption to individual needs (CC-licenses) • criteria and procedures for quality assurance • archiving function • target groups: instructors, librarians, chemistry professors, information specialists, students, technical writers

  6. Work Together 2007: elaboration of the theoretical bases of the planned repository,creation of a metadata scheme, concept for content classification inchemical information, finding a repository name 2008: beginning of technical support at FIZ CHEMIE 2008-2009: technical tests with diverse CMS systems and archiving software 2009-2010: development of XCITR repository based on CMS Drupal 2010: launch at the 6. GCC Meeting (Goslar, Germany), November XCITR open to the public 2011: presentation at the ACS meeting in Anaheim, March

  7. What is the Result? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

  8. http://www.xcitr.org repository for exploring and sharing chemical information teaching resources collaborative project between the CIC division of the GDCh and the CINF division of the ACS hosted by FIZ CHEMIE

  9. Overview Search Content map Top 5 content New content

  10. Submission Example Title Metadata Document

  11. XCITR as Publishing Platform • XCITR as Content Base Editorial board Author Upload Review Modification User Publication

  12. XCITR as Link Collection Editorial board Content from: Linking Review User Publication

  13. XCITR as Communication Platform rating, comments calendar discussion forum author contact

  14. Features and Formats • possible file formats: • MS Office files (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) and PDF • embedded videos (YouTube, MEGAVIDEO) • slideshows (SlideShare) • under development: embedded websites, direct upload of videos, etc. quality assurance by six-member editorial board flexible metadata scheme tailored to chemical information freely selectable license agreements

  15. Technical Features • automated publication workflow • facetted search and content map • individual workspaces • keyword linking • role based functions and web site look CMS: Drupal (http://www.drupal.org/) Layout:Artisteer (http://www.artisteer.com/) User statistics:Piwik (http://www.piwik.org/)

  16. Types of Material • complex objects => complete lecture on how to cite • anything that helps teaching chemical information short objects => melting point handout

  18. Outlook • more submitters and users extending to other disciplines like chemoinformatics, bioinformatics, computational chemistry further technical developments (e.g. semantic tools) more features and functions value enhancement through more submissions more advertising activities

  19. Final • Have a look at XCITR • Tell your colleagues • Use XCITR material • Become an author

  20. Thank you for your attention Questions
