Since 2006, the EDIFICA group (Evaluation and dissemination of science, promotion of knowledge of research methodologies and academic communication) has been developing different lines of research, including the performance of scientometric and bibliometric studies for the evaluation of research, as well as the development of materials based on e-learning, with the aim of providing a reference framework to enhance knowledge of research methodologies and written and oral communication skills in the academic environment. The EDIFICA group has developed an outstanding activity in relation to these lines of research, with the publication of numerous works that analyse the production, collaboration or impact of research activity at analytical levels (authors, institutions, disciplines or countries). Likewise, since 2012, different projects have been launched to deepen the knowledge of the phenomenon of scientific collaboration in order to better understand this phenomenon and provide relevant information to both institutions and researchers in order to enhance and manage cooperative practices; and in relation to the development of materials based on e-learning, in order to provide a...Since 2006, the EDIFICA group (Evaluation and dissemination of science, promotion of knowledge of research methodologies and academic communication) has been developing different lines of research, including the performance of scientometric and bibliometric studies for the evaluation of research, as well as the development of materials based on e-learning, with the aim of providing a reference framework to enhance knowledge of research methodologies and written and oral communication skills in the academic environment.

Likewise, the EDIFICA group has been characterised over the last few years by an outstanding activity of dissemination of Valencian cultural heritage, participating in exhibitions, conferences and through different informative publications, particularly of its native sport par excellence, Valencian pilota. The development of control indicators to identify unethical practices in research activities is the group's most innovative line of work.
