Abstract

The University of Pittsburgh RERC on Telerehabilitation identified three previously under-utilized “web-based spaces” to feature telerehabilitation-based efforts. This presentation will feature efforts to promote telerehabilitation via: 1. Wikipedia (supported by the efforts of the ATA SIG on Telerehabilitation) 2. Google’s Knol application and, 3. Open Journal Systems developed by the Public Knowledge Project (pkp.sfu.ca). Each is free to the public and affords opportunities for faculty and practitioners to engage in academic public service. We will compare and contrast these vehicles’ ease of use, immediacy, accessibility challenges, and quality control; and present product exemplars --- including a new, electronic-only, open access peer-reviewed journal (International Journal of Telerehabilitation) published by the University of Pittsburgh’s University Library System and scheduled to launch Spring/Summer 2009. Each of these web-based formats provides opportunities to engage in academic public service.
