  1. AuthorAID Knowledge Community Global/Open: (Barbara Gastel) for all AuthorAIDs Push out info Exchange ideas Enrolled: manage mentoring for each AuthorAID 1 Council of Science Editors

  2. Knowledge Communitythe active elements a web-based collaborative environment to be used by both authors and mentors Prof. Venansius Barya Baryamureeba Makerere University Faculty of Computing and Information Technology (CIT) 2 Council of Science Editors

  3. Collaborative Environment match mentors to authors assist & track the mentoring process provide content to assist authors prepare better scientific papers. 3 Council of Science Editors

  4. Architecture • Open Area: includes the landing page and AuthorAID content • Mentoring System: handles all aspects of mentoring (including author enrollment, mentor matching, etc) • Administrative area: includes mentor selection, privileged statistics tracking, etc. 4 Council of Science Editors

  5. Council of Science Editors

  6. Open Area 1 • Landing Page: a brief introduction to AuthorAID concept, benefits, & information on how to join/participate (for both authors and potential mentors). May also include basic statistics (number of registered mentors, etc) • Tutorials, advice & tips for authors/scientists. (B.G.) • Links to relevant external content, including partners, articles, publishers, etc. (B.G.) • System Administration Interface 6 Council of Science Editors

  7. Open Area 2 • a Wiki system, making it easy for (authorised/authenticated) users to rapidly adapt the content to changing needs/circumstances 7 Council of Science Editors

  8. Active Area: administration • provides functionality for system operation and maintenance by AuthorAID personnel. • System Management: Wiki features management, including content editing, rights assignment, statistics tracking. Council of Science Editors 8

  9. Administration of Mentoring Mentor enrollment: Application receipt (online or via email), including notification of relevant reviewers. Peer/mentor recommendation (e.g. using “web of trust” concept) Internal/protected communication/discussions, using weblog- or forum structure.
