Fel Partner Academaidd ar gyfer Llais ac Ymgysylltu Myfyrwyr yn Academi Dysgu ac Addysgu Caerdydd, rwy'n goruchwylio rhaglen newid sefydliadol eang sy'n ymestyn ar draws sawl prosiect gyda'r nod o wella profiad myfyrwyr yng Nghaerdydd, hyrwyddo a gwrando ar lais myfyrwyr, a chau'r ddolen adborth. Mae'r prosiectau hyn yn ymdrin â meysydd fel Gwella Modiwlau, Pwls Caerdydd, Unitu a gwaith arall fel y manylir yn Fframwaith Llais y Myfyrwyr. Rwy'n cadeirio'r Pwyllgor Llais a Phartneriaeth Myfyrwyr sy'n adrodd i'r Pwyllgor Profiad Addysg a Myfyrwyr, yr wyf hefyd yn eistedd arno.

Fi yw Cadeirydd Grŵp Rheoli Arolwg y Brifysgol, sydd â goruchwyliaeth o'r holl arolygon sefydliadol (gan gynnwys ACF, PTES a PRES). Rwy'n aelod o'r Uwch Dîm Addysg a'r Grŵp Goruchwylio Perfformiad Addysg, y ddau dan gadeiryddiaeth Addysg PVC a Phrofiad Myfyrwyr.

Rwy'n gyd-awdur y 6ed Argraffiad o Ddulliau Ymchwil Gymdeithasol Bryman, a gyhoeddwyd yn 2021.

Rwy'n Ddirprwy Gyfarwyddwr y Lab Gwyddor Data Cymdeithasol ac mae fy ngwaith ar ddeall pwy sy'n defnyddio Twitter trwy ddatblygu dirprwyon demograffig a chysylltiad data yn cael ei gydnabod yn rhyngwladol. Mae fy nghefndir mewn Gwyddor Wleidyddol ond mae fy niddordebau yn fethodolegol yn bennaf ac yn rhychwantu'r Gwyddorau Cymdeithasol, ac felly rwy'n canolbwyntio ar gynrychiolaeth, daearyddiaeth, dadansoddi meintiol a modelu, gan archwilio cysylltedd data ac arolygon cymdeithasol. Defnyddiwyd fy ngwaith yng nghanllawiau GSR ar sut y gellir defnyddio data Twitter i ychwanegu at ymchwil gymdeithasol.

Rwy'n arwain y prosiect ESRC a ariannwyd yn ddiweddar 'Understanding [Online/Offline] Society: Linking Surveys with Twitter Data' (£906,021, ES/S015175/1). Gallwch ddarganfod mwy am y prosiect yma: https://natcen.ac.uk/linking-survey-and-digital-trace-data

Crynodeb

Rwy'n Ddirprwy Gyfarwyddwr y Labordy Gwyddor Data Cymdeithasol. Fy mhrif ddiddordebau ymchwil yw deall cynrychiolaeth ar Twitter ac ychwanegu data cyfryngau cymdeithasol trwy gysylltiad data. Rwyf wedi gweithio ar ystod o brosiectau sy'n ymchwilio i ddefnydd data Twitter ar gyfer deall ffenomenau cymdeithasol sy'n cwmpasu pynciau fel rhagfynegiad etholiad, olrhain (cam)lluosogi gwybodaeth yn ystod creithiau bwyd a 'synhwyro trosedd'. Mae fy ngwaith cyhoeddedig yn canolbwyntio ar ddatblygu dirprwyon demograffig ar gyfer data Twitter i ddeall ymhellach pwy sy'n defnyddio'r platfform a chynyddu defnyddioldeb data o'r fath ar gyfer y gwyddorau cymdeithasol. Rwy'n aelod arbenigol o'r Social Media Analytics Review and Information Group (SMARIG) sy'n dwyn ynghyd academyddion ac asiantaethau'r llywodraeth ac yn gweithio'n agos gyda'r Swyddfa Ystadegau Gwladol a'r Asiantaeth Safonau Bwyd. Ar hyn o bryd rwy'n cymryd rhan mewn tair astudiaeth arolwg cymdeithasol fawr yn y DU sy'n archwilio cysylltiad posibl rhwng Twitter a data arolygon - Agweddau Cymdeithasol Prydain 2015, Astudiaeth Etholiad Cymru 2016 a Phanel Arloesi Understanding Society 2017.

*Deall Cymdeithas [Ar-lein/All-lein]: Cysylltu Arolygon â Data Twitter (ES/S015175/1)

Mae deall ymddygiadau, agweddau a hunaniaethau mewn gofod ar-lein yn her allweddol i Wyddor Gymdeithasol yr 21ain Ganrif. Mae'r cyfleoedd a ddarperir gan lwyfannau cyfryngau cymdeithasol fel Twitter yn sylweddol, gyda rhwng 300 a 500 miliwn o drydariadau wedi'u cynhyrchu bob dydd yn cynrychioli rhyngweithiadau, rhwydweithiau, barn ac ymatebion ar lefel amserol hynod gronynnog (ac weithiau gofodol). Ar gyfartaledd mae 4,500 o drydariadau yn cael eu hysgrifennu bob eiliad ac mae'r cyflymder hwn o ddata yn cynnig cipolwg amser real i ni ar y byd cymdeithasol. Fodd bynnag, y pryf yn yr ennaint i ymchwilwyr yw bod gennym ddealltwriaeth gyfyngedig o bwy (neu beth yn achos 'bots') sy'n bresennol yn y gofod ar-lein ac i ba raddau y gellir cymryd cynrychiolaeth ar-lein actorion cymdeithasol i gynrychioli'r byd cymdeithasol. Mae angen mynd i'r afael â phryderon sylfaenol yr hyn y gellir ei wybod a sut y gallwn wybod bod angen mynd i'r afael ag ef cyn y gall y gwyddorau cymdeithasol gofleidio, er bod ganddo ddogn iach o rybudd, Twitter fel ffynhonnell wybodaeth ar y byd cymdeithasol.

Yng ngoleuni hyn, mae'r prosiect hwn yn ceisio canfod pa fewnwelediadau y gall Twitter eu cynnig i ni i ffenomen gymdeithasol trwy gysylltu cynnwys a metadata trydar â data arolwg o dri phrif arolwg yn y DU - Agweddau Cymdeithasol Prydain 2015, Panel Arloesi Understanding Society 2017 a Phanel NatCen. Yn ei hanfod, mae'r prosiect hwn yn ymarfer mewn dull, graddnodi a gwirio, trwy gymryd yr hyn a wyddom am ymatebydd ac archwilio i ba raddau y gallai nodwedd hysbys benodol amlygu (neu beidio) yn y lleoliad ar-lein, ac i'r gwrthwyneb. Mae gwerth methodolegol clir yn hyn o beth - mae cael caniatâd i gysylltu ffynonellau ychwanegol o ddata ag ymatebion yr arolwg yn cael ei ddefnyddio fwyfwy i wella gwerth data'r arolwg, dilysu mesurau arolwg, a mynd i'r afael â materion heb ymateb. Fodd bynnag, mae'r rhan fwyaf o ymchwil flaenorol ar gydsynio wedi canolbwyntio ar gofnodion gweinyddol, ac mae angen deall cydsyniad sy'n ymwneud â mathau newydd eraill o ddata.

Gyda dulliau newydd mae cyfyngiadau i weithio'n ddamcaniaethol - gall cyfyngiadau annisgwyl ddod i'r amlwg, ac nid yw gwerth y dyluniad yn amlwg heb gyd-destun ymchwil go iawn. Felly, rydym yn cynnig casglu data pellach fel rhan o astudiaeth achos sylweddol ynghylch agweddau ac ymddygiadau tuag at leiafrifoedd ethnig a fydd yn ceisio datgelu heriau 'cudd' a dangos sut y gellir defnyddio'r fethodoleg hon, yn ogystal â chyfrannu at y llenyddiaeth sylweddol. Er mwyn gwneud y gorau o werth yr ymchwil ar gyfer y gymuned academaidd ehangach, bydd y gwaith hwn yn ei dro yn llywio pecyn gwaith sy'n canolbwyntio'n llwyr ar archifo, rhannu ac ailddefnyddio'r set ddata gysylltiedig a/neu ddeilliad ohono. Er mai dim ond un o lawer o lwyfannau cyfryngau cymdeithasol yw Twitter, dyma'r mwyaf agored a hygyrch ac mae'n darparu maes profi lle gellir profi a gwerthuso materion cydsynio, cysylltu, archifo a rhannu. Rydym yn rhagweld y bydd llawer o'r gwersi a'r protocolau a ddatblygwyd fel rhan o'r ymchwil hon yn weithredol berthnasol i lwyfannau cyfryngau cymdeithasol eraill.

I grynhoi, mae'r prosiect ymchwil yn ceisio ateb y cwestiynau ymchwil canlynol:

RQ1) Sut y gellir defnyddio data Twitter i wella data arolwg?

RQ2) Sut y gellir defnyddio data arolwg i werthuso mesurau dirprwy demograffig presennol a datblygu rhai newydd?

RQ3) Sut allwn ni annog caniatâd gwybodus i gysylltiad data cyfryngau cymdeithasol?

Astudiaeth Arddangoswr RQ4: Sut y gall data cysylltiedig (a adroddir yn uniongyrchol ac a arsylwyd yn anuniongyrchol) ein helpu i ddeall agweddau'r cyhoedd tuag at grwpiau ethnig lleiafrifol?

RQ5) Sut y gellir casglu data cyfryngau cymdeithasol, sy'n gysylltiedig â data'r arolwg, ei ddadansoddi, ei archifo, a'i rannu mewn modd cyfreithiol a moesegol sy'n cynnal cyfleustodau?

Summary

I have three key roles in the University that are directly related to teaching.

As Co-Director of the Cardiff Q-Step Centre of Excellence in Quantitative Methods Teaching (and Teaching Group Coordinator) I am responsible for overseeing the successful implementation and quality control of all our new programme content on BSc Social Analytics. The Q-Step Centre award was given after an international peer-review process and we are 3 years (halfway) into the project.

As a Co-Director for Teaching and Learning I oversee all admissions, recruitment and marketing activities in the School.

I also coordinate the annual State of the Campus Project – a week long experiential learning event that all our 300+ returning year two students partake in during the first week of teaching. During this week our students conduct a research project of interest to the University community involving the collection, analysis and presentation of qualitative and quantitative data. In 2015 we focused on student accommodation and this in turn informed the student housing charter with over 1,000 surveys conducted, 200 images captured and 200 interviews transcribed. For 2016 students will be focusing on the issue of race in the University with their findings and analysis potentislly feeding in to the University’s application for the Race Equality Charter Mark.
