MyActivities Scholarly Impact Challenge

Increase the impact and reach of your scholarly research by participating in the 5-Day MyActivities Scholarly Impact Challenge — and be eligible to win a $100 Amazon gift card.

Between March 27 and April 7 update your MyActivities profile and make it public in the UICollaboratory. This will improve the discoverability of your research and yourself in the online academic community. The easier it is for your colleagues to find your work and learn of your interests, the more likely you are to be cited and read.     

You can complete this challenge at your own pace: all in one setting, across several days, or over a week.  

• To complete the challenge, engage in the activities described on each tab of this guide:  https://researchguides.uic.edu/impactchallenge    
• Not familiar with MyActivities or need refresher?  Follow the guide, attend a workshop, or join a drop-in session for assistance: https://researchguides.uic.edu/impactchallenge/workshops

The deadline to complete the challenge and be included in the drawing for a prize is April 7.  At the end of the Impact Challenge, those who have updated their information will be entered into a drawing.  Twenty-five winners will be selected and receive a $100 Amazon gift card.

Contact myactivities@uic.edu if you have any questions.
