N2  - Collaboration among scholars has always been recognized as a fundamental feature in scientific discovery (Franceschet & Costantini, 2010). The ever-increasing diversity among disciplines and complexity of research problems make it more impelling to work with others in order to keep up with the fast pace of innovation and new knowledge. Along with the rapidly developing Internet communication technologies and the increasing popularity of social web, we have observed many important developments of scholarly collaboration on the social web. In this lecture, we will review the rapid transformation of scholarly collaboration on various social web platforms, and how these platforms have facilitated academics throughout their research lifecycle, from forming ideas, collecting data, authoring, to disseminating findings (Rowlands, Nicholas, & Russell, 2011). The term social web platform in this lecture refers to a category of Web 2.0 tools or online platforms that enable and facilitate information exchange and participation. These platforms range from academic platforms such as CiteULike, Mendeley and ResearchGate, to more interactive social sites such as Twitter, to generic social network sites such as Facebook, and to other Wiki-style virtual collaboration sites. We also examine scholars collaboration behaviors include sharing academic resources, exchanging opinions, following each other's research, keeping up with current research trends, and most importantly, building up their professional networks (Krause, 2012). Finally, we will also talk about the challenges of all these online scholarly collaboration activities imposed to the research communities who are engaging in supporting online scholarly collaboration. -- Publisher information
