Google Scholar or Semantic Scholar ?
Ever typed your topic and got thousands of results, but still felt stuck, because you do not know which tool to trust.
โ
Google Scholar is best when you want wide coverage. It pulls journal articles, theses, conference papers, book chapters, and university repository PDFs. So it helps you build a strong starting list and follow citation trails.
โ
Semantic Scholar is best when you want to narrow fast. It shows cleaner paper details like topics, citations, and related papers, so you can shortlist quicker and find similar studies without getting lost.
โ
Best workflow for research students๐๐ฟ
Start with Google Scholar to expand your pool. Then move to Semantic Scholar to screen faster and refine your final reading list.

When I started my research journey in my master's, I judged journals by their titles. If it sounded serious and had โInternationalโ in the name, I trusted it. ๐
Then Prof. Muhammad Shakil showed me the journal Iโd been reading was on a predatory list. Same topic as top publishers, but zero peer review and fake metrics.
That week I made a simple rule for myself: if Iโm building my understanding or citing in a paper, I start with trusted publishers first.
Hereโs a quick guide to some major academic publishers and what theyโre good for:
โข Elsevier Strong across sciences, health, social sciences. Many Scopus and Web of Science journals.
โข Springer Nature Big in STEM and medicine; includes Springer, Nature titles, and BioMed Central for open access.
โข Wiley Well known for psychology, business, and social sciences; lots of society journals.
โข Taylor & Francis Group Great for humanities, education, tourism, and management fields.
โข Sage Very strong in social sciences, education, and methods.
โข Emerald Publishing Focused on business, management, hospitality, tourism, and leadership.
โข MDPI Fast, fully open access; only use well-established titles that fit your field and scope.
โข Cambridge University Press & Assessment Highly selective, theory-heavy, and often field-defining journals.
โข JSTOR Archive of high-quality older articlesโperfect for background reading and classic work.
Two pro tips for beginners:
1. When in doubt, read from these publishers first instead of random โinternationalโ journals. 2. Learn to recognize their logos/symbols; your brain will quickly spot high-trust sources when you scan search results.
Save this post so next time you search the literature, you can quickly filter for trusted publishers and avoid predatory traps.

Ce que la puissance chinoise donne ร voirโฆ et ce qu'elle dissimule.
J'รฉvoque souvent ici la force de certains modรจles propres ร la Chine : efficacitรฉ, rapiditรฉ, capacitรฉ d'exรฉcution, ambition technologique. Mais mettre en avant ce qu'elle fait bien, et qui peut nous inspirer, ne signifie pas ignorer ses angles morts. Et souligner ses fragilitรฉs ne revient pas non plus pas ร nier ses accomplissements. Les deux coexistent.
La Chine est aujourdโhui une superpuissance industrielle et digitale. Au-delร de cette efficacitรฉ spectaculaire, et derriรจre cette ascension ร tout rompre, l'envers du dรฉcor n'est pas forcรฉment idyllique.
Il existe des tensions permanentes entre l'audace du pays et ses fragilitรฉs, son hyper-modernitรฉ et ses rigiditรฉs structurelles, son innovation et le contrรดle qui encadre la totalitรฉ de la sociรฉtรฉ.
Ce modรจle s'est construit sous une forte pression politique et organisationnelle. Ces contraintes n'empรชchent pas la performance, mais elles laissent apparaรฎtre des vulnรฉrabilitรฉs qui ne sont pas mentionnรฉes dans les rรฉcits officiels.
Qu'est-ce qui vient nuancer le tableau ?
- une crise immobiliรจre longue - un chรดmage des jeunes รฉlevรฉ malgrรฉ des รฉtudes poussรฉes - un endettement massif - la prudence des investisseurs locaux et รฉtrangers - la chute des naissances et une solitude croissante - une augmentation des recherches en ligne liรฉes ร l'anxiรฉtรฉ et ร la dรฉpression, une demande croissante de consultations malgrรฉ lโabsence de donnรฉes faute de transparence.
Une partie de l'รฉlite chinoise รฉmigre au Japon, ร la recherche de stabilitรฉ et de perspectives รฉducatives pour ses enfants. Les talents dรฉsertent. La jeunesse exprime son dรฉsenchantement avec un retour ร la spiritualitรฉ ou ร la nature. Dans tous les cas, les valeurs bougent beaucoup en ce moment.
Le secteur privรฉ n'est pas รฉpargnรฉ. Beaucoup dโentrepreneurs rรฉussissent, malgrรฉ le systรจme plus que grรขce ร lui. The Economist mentionnait en octobre plusieurs cas de suicides parmi des dirigeants, illustrant la pression actuelle. Et l'ONG Safeguard Defenders a documentรฉ quatre rรฉcents suicides d'entrepreneurs, tous auparavant soumis ร des enquรชtes disciplinaires.
Comme partout, la Chine traverse une mutation. Elle affronte des dรฉfis รฉconomiques et sociaux qui ressemblent parfois aux nรดtres : productivitรฉ en berne, arbitrages difficiles entre contrรดle et innovation, tensions gรฉopolitiques, nรฉcessitรฉ de rรฉformes structurelles.
Je vois que souvent, elle suscite soit la peur, soit la fascination. Pourtant, une pensรฉe complexe, qui intรจgre des rรฉalitรฉs variรฉes mais concomitantes, est la seule faรงon de percevoir un pays si contrastรฉ.
D'une faรงon gรฉnรฉrale, sachons regarder de faรงon pragmatique, sans se laisser submerger par l'รฉmotionnel. C'est la meilleure faรงon de lire le monde quand la tendance est ร la polarisation sur tout. | 14 comments on LinkedIn

I made a MAP OF TIKTOK.
Y'all kept asking. So here is it is.
We don't know a lot about TikTok's algorithm. Last year, 1,100 people sent us their TikTok data to help try to learn more. (They say they're "transparent" about how it works. You be the judge!)
I used an open-source collaborative filtering algorithm -- a simplified version of what TikTok has signaled that it uses -- to make a map of 121,000 videos on TikTok. Videos watched by similar people end up closer together. So videos on the same topic tend to cluster together, even though my algorithm doesn't know anything about the video content.
Even more astonishingly, the algorithm determined gender was one of the biggest determining factors in the topics you see on your feed. Look at the second map here: it's almost a perfect gradient, with topics seen disproportionately by women on the left (like books and skincare), and those seen disproportionately by men (sports and videogames) on the right.
All of the amazing beautiful design and graphics work by Joe Fox and Leslie S. (you don't want to see the ugly matplotlib version I made alone.)

A Chinese Russia ? What if Russia implodes ? Beijing might integrate a significant portion of itโฆEspecially if Russia fractures, arguing the Russian Far Eastโs 7 million square kilometers should not be โlost.โ
-The piece frames the region as a resource treasure for China and a burden for Moscow, then outlines an โannexation by stealthโ playbook: deepen investment, move people and money in, lock long contracts, promote pro-China local elites, introduce the yuan, and finance infrastructure with loans that create dependence.

Will *library* centric *discovery* solutions fade away? Sage divests LeanLibrary. https://lnkd.in/e2VcPzMK? At best they were perhaps just a minor part of the discovery ecosystem anyway. Thinking about the AI context, should *library* solutions now focus more on *curation* (resource/reading lists/VLEs/textbook platforms) and supporting evaluation of *integrity* and *quality* of content? Guardian earlier this year: "Many argue that scientific publishing is broken, unsustainable and churning out too many papers that border on worthless" https://lnkd.in/e4aryDkh "Quality of scientific papers questioned as academics โoverwhelmedโ by the millions published"

Three months ago, a PhD student asked me a simple question that revealed a big problem:
โHaroonโฆ why doesnโt ChatGPT give me the same quality answers you get?โ
So I asked her to show me her prompts.
She typed: โExplain this better.โ โWrite my literature review.โ โMake this academic.โ
And thatโs when it clicked:
Most researchers donโt struggle with AI โ They struggle with telling AI exactly what they need.
Your output is only as good as your prompt.
So I created a set of 14 research-ready prompts that work for planning, reviewing, analyzing, and generating ideasโwithout crossing academic integrity lines.
Hereโs what they help you do:
Research Plan Turn any topic into objectives, a timeline, a budget, and an impact.
Brainstorm Topics Get 10 meaningful topics with justification + a research question.
Study Review Summaries of recent studiesโmethods, findings, gaps.
Question Builder Convert an idea into 5 research questions + hypotheses.
Research Timeline Key breakthroughs over the past decade.
Dataset Helper Useful tests, insights, and visualizations from your dataset.
Find Gaps Identify gaps from links and propose one experiment per gap.
Method Design Outline your method, data sources, ethics, and outcomes.
Check Credibility Evaluate bias, evidence strength, and missing sources.
Trend Insights Predict emerging trends using real data.
Ethics Review Privacy, bias, risk areas, regulations.
Abstract Summary Turn an abstract into visuals + key takeaways.
Hypothesis Ideas Generate testable, valid hypotheses for your question.
Cross-Topic Links Connect two topics and propose hybrid ideas.
If youโre using AI for research, your prompts are the difference between generic output and research-level clarity.
Save this list โ itโll become your daily toolkit.

๐ฑย TikTok : pourquoi les marques doivent (enfin) le veiller sรฉrieusement
TikTok nโest plus seulementย laย plateforme des tendances. Cโest devenu un espace dโinfluence massive, oรน se jouent dรฉsormais rรฉputation, consommation et crises.
๐ Pour aider les communicants et veilleurs ร mieux comprendre cet รฉcosystรจme, Visibrain publie son tout nouveau guide sur la veille TikTok.
Pourquoi veiller TikTok aujourd'hui ?
-ย Parce que TikTok faรงonne lโimage des organisations : un challenge viral peut propulser une marque, mais un bad buzz peut aussi y naรฎtre ou y transiter
-ย Parce que cโest une source dโinsights : on y observe des usages รฉmergents, des communautรฉs trรจs actives et des crรฉateurs capables de faire bouger les perceptions, un terrain prรฉcieux pour anticiper les tendances
-ย Parce que c'est un rรฉseau qui transforme : TikTok influence dรฉsormais les achats, la culture, la politique, les comportements
