Integrating Open Science Learning into Higher Education: A GenR Theme – Jan/Feb ’19

Gen R Gen R on January 16, 2019

Open Science Learning

The Open Science learning theme will take two approaches to the question of how to integrate Open Science practices into higher education. The first, will be to examine ways for students to get on board — using Open Science methods, using open source tools, or being made aware of how to get ‘more’ credit and attribution. The second approach, being about trends and innovations in ways of teaching, for example ‘The Carpentries’ an open peer-learning network for data, software, and library skills with the formula of being ‘welcoming’ and making good use of the wealth of teaching methods available.

‘Making a FOSS Research Workflow’ based on a keynote presentation from the 13th Munin Conference (Tromsø​​​​​​​, Norway) by Dr. Corina Logan, “We won’t be… ‘Bullied into Bad Science'”, 28.11.2018, slides (slide 25: Being open & transparent saves time & improves research): https://osf.io/sy9f7/

The objective of this new collaborative work is to take the existing ‘free to use’ research workflow (slide 25) and see what Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) tools are available to update it into a ‘FOSS’ workflow that can be widely used. The results will be published on GenR.
