Digital Research Services Media Hopper channel

Media Hopper is the University's media asset management system, putting video at the heart of teaching, learning, research and public engagement.

The Digital Research Services Media Hopper channel is home to videos relevant to digital research, data and compute services, resources and tools.

Video allows us to share information about digital research effectively to all members of the University community, but our channel might be of particular interest to research students, researchers and professional staff supporting research.

Through a series of playlists, viewers can learn more about the different digital research lifecycle stages, from planning a research project to communicating research outputs.

There is a broad range of videos available, discussing individual services, relevant research projects and promoting best research practices.

The content is continually enhanced so please visit the Digital Research Services media hopper channel regularly to stay up to date.

Few recommendations from the facilitation team. Check this page regularly for new reccomended videos!
