This edition represents the collection of seminal ideas that have shaped the postsecondary institutions in Canada. The chapters in this edition correspond to the animating ideas that are relevant in this era of increased participation of the public in tertiary education. The chapters that have been chosen to present the reader with the salient issues concerning functioning, accountability, policy framework, inter alia, constitute the sessions of a course on post secondary policy and governance offered to adults who either work at or aspire to work at universities and colleges. This text is interactive insofar as it offers stimuli for the engaged student to co-construct knowledge and their own gloss of pertinent issues. This text introduces concepts through various examples and contemporary cases and provides a plethora of resources primarily from Canadian context for further engagement. Finally, it offers an activity, through case studies, for students to play the part of various roles in the postsecondary sector to bring together the ideas explored in the text.

This module dwells on a number of methods (including old and new) available for research evaluation. The module comprises the following four units:
Unit 1. Introduction to Research Evaluation Metrics and Related Indicators.
Unit 2. Innovations in Measuring Science and Scholarship: Analytical Tools and Indicators in Evaluation Scholarship Communications.
Unit 3. Article and Author Level Measurements, and
Unit 4. Online Citation and Reference Management Tools.
Brief overviews of the units are presented below.
Unit 1 encompassed and discussed citation analysis, use of citation-based indicators for research evaluation, common bibliometric indicators, classical bibliometric laws, author level indicators using authors' public profiles, article level metrics using altmetric tools. It is to be noted that author level indicators and article level metrics are new tools for research evaluation. Author level indicators encompasses h index, citations count, i10 index, g index, articles with citation, average citations per article, Eigenfactor score, impact points, and RG score. Article level metrics or altmetrics are based on Twitter, Facebook, Mendeley, CiteULike, and Delicious which have been discussed. All technical terms used in the Unit have been defined.
Unit 2 deals with analytical tools and indicators used in evaluating scholarly communications. The tools covered are The Web of Science, Scopus, Indian Citation Index (ICI), CiteSeerX, Google Scholar and Google Scholar Citations. Among these all the tools except Indian Citation Index (ICI) are international in scope. ICI is not very much known outside India. It is a powerful tool as far Indian scholarly literature is concerned. As Indian journals publish a sizable amount of foreign literature, the tool will be useful for foreign countries as well. The analytical products with journal performance metrics Journal Citation Reports (JCR®) has also been described. In the chapter titled New Platforms for Evaluating Scholarly Communications three websites i.e. SCImago Journal & Country Rank (SJR) [ScimagoJR.com], eigenFACTOR.org, JournalMetrics.com and one software called Publish or Perish (POP) Software have been discussed.
Article and author level measurements have been discussed in Unit 3. Author and researcher identifiers are absolutely essential for searching databases in the WWW because a name like D Singh can harbour a number of names such as Dan Singh, Dhan Singh, Dhyan Singh, Darbara Singh, Daulat Singh, Durlabh Singh and more. The ResearcherID.com, launched by Thomson Reuters, is a web-based global registry of authors and researchers that individualises each and every name. Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID) is also a registry that uniquely identifies an author or researcher. Both have been discussed in this Unit. Article Level Metrics (Altmetrics) has been treated in this Unit with the discussion as to how altmetrics can be measured with Altmetric.com and ImpactStory.org. Altmetrics for Online Journals has also been touched. There are a number of academic social networks of which ResearchGate.net, Academia.edu, GetCited.org, etc. have been discussed. Regional journal networks with bibliometric indicators are also in existence. Two networks of this type such as SciELO – Scientific Electronic Library Online, and Redalyc have been dealt with.
The last unit (Unit 4) is on online citation and reference management tools. The tools discussed are Mendeley, CiteULike, Zotero, Google Scholar Library, and EndNote Basic. The features of all the management tools have been discussed with figures, tables, and text boxes.
This is Module Four of the UNESCO's Open Access Curriculum for Researchers.

Social media isa transformedform of traditional method of one way communication. Social media empowers the two way communication between brands and consumers and it enablesthe consumer to make positive as well as negative influence on brand awareness. Many business use social media channels as a marketing tool to promote their products and services to make customers more aware and convince with their brand. The essence of this study is to find out how entrepreneur can seize the moment of using social media networks to hype brand awareness and brand image. Awareness which includes both recall and recognition become the first step for any move toward a successful market strategy. In this paper an attempt is made to know the role of social media on the brand awareness. The finding of the study can be used by the businessman to collective brand awareness through social media. 

Water is very essential and a major component of all living creatures. Pure water is colourless, tasteless and odourless, but is generally found in impure state. Water found in oceans, rivers, lakes and ponds appear of different colour. Suspended and dissolved particles influence the colour of water. Freshwater bodies sometime appear turquoise (blue-green) and bright sky-blue and catches the attention of people.
Turquoise and bright sky-blue appearing freshwater bodies are found in different parts of the world in different set of environmental conditions. For example, glacial-fed lakes also appear turquoise, crater lakes also bears turquoise colour and calcium carbonate rich water bodies also appear turquoise. Recently,
rivers polluted by anthropogenic activities are also seen to bear turquoise color appearance. The turquoise appearance of water bodies is mainly due to the scattering of light in the blue-green range of the spectrum
by suspended particles present in the water. There is diversity in the causal factor(s) responsible for such coloration in different set of conditions, but turquoise freshwater bodies originating under similar conditions in different parts of the world have some common characteristics. Moreover, the information about turquoise appearing freshwater bodies in different parts of the world are present but are scattered
into pieces. There is a great need felt for compilation of different turquoise appearing freshwater bodies in the world. In this paper, different turquoise appearing freshwater bodies throughout the world have been
identified. The causal factor(s) responsible for such coloration is also discussed. Since, the turquoise appearing freshwater bodies originating in similar conditions in different parts of the world bears some common characteristics, so based on it, a categorisation of turquoise appearing freshwater bodies for the first time is proposed in this paper for a better understanding. The categorisation has been supported by examples.
