== <span style="font-size:x-large;">'''Strategy 4: Spreading The Concept Of "OPEN ACCESS" '''</span> ==
<span style="font-size:medium;"Awareness and contribution to "Open Society" initiatives is one of the most important to methods to check the institutions role and impact on the society. However, in the present situation, the culture of "Open Access" on the campus can be rated as 3/10. With the following strategies, it can be developed to 7/10 in a period one year.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">[[File:Oalogo.jpg]]</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">The first step of this strategy is create awarness among the students, staff, and the administration, about "Open Access", its need and importance. To achieve this goal, the major cut will be hosting an OpenCon satellitive event. OpenCon satellite events are hosted a sub regional events of annual OpenCon (similar to TEDx under TED). Again, the 3rd week of October is globally celebrated as Open Access week. During this week, various sessions can be organized for the students.Another important way is to place Did You Know (DYK) posters from Wikipedia, and info with the intersting facts about Open Access and QR codes more information.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">After there creating awareness on the campus, the next step is faculty engagement. A workshop for "Intergrating reasearch methodology into Wikipedia and its sister projects" should be organized. All the articles & papers published are to be made sure that they are indexed with Google scholar, and an e-copy is to be sent to R2C. Faculty can be trained to contriute to Wikiversity (Open Education Resource), and intersted faculty can trained on MediaWiki as well.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">The step involves student engagement. This step invovled organising Wikipedia Edit-a-thons, and sucessfully form Wiki-club on campus. This part has already been started and is in implementation phase. The next step is to make the Computer Science Engineering students to learn MediaWiki, and take up projects to develop tools, bots, gadgets on MediaWiki. A resolution is to be made across the campus, by students, to release the images related to educational content through CC BY-SA licenses.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">The final step of this strategy is administrative engagement. The instituion can form a "Open Access Repository" with all the required resources, and partner with various online databases to access their paywalled content through a collaboration. The college magazine must be incude Open-ed, and is to be published under CC BY-SA.</span>
<span style="font-size:medium;">In the process of implementing this strategy, the by-products are as follows: students involved will enchance thier organizing, and problem solving skills, and the design thinking is adopted to improvise the ways to implement this startegy. Various organizations may also show interest due to the culture, and support can be obtained from goverment as well.</span>
