The next generation of researchers and consumers of science must be equipped with knowledge of open and reproducible research to maintain and further scientific standards. Thus, educators and mentors must be able to provide a strong foundation in Open Science training.
To facilitate this, a team at the Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training (FORRT) is designing a pedagogically-informed, evidence-based, self-guided program to support the teaching of Open Science. Three modules for educators interested in teaching Open Science are being developed through a 1) positive, 2) participatory, and 3) inclusive lens.
Our goal is to develop this program in close consultation with the community involved in Open Science. In this session, we would like to i) present this program; ii) discuss areas for improvement; and iii) identify opportunities to amplify its reach to educators in different academic fields.
The FORRT community has prepared 200+ summaries of Open and Reproducible Science literature. The purpose of these summaries is to reduce some of the burden on educators looking to incorporate open and reproducible research principles into their teaching as well as facilitate the edification of anyone wishing to learn or disseminate open and reproducible science tenets. In this hackathon, we invite you to review the summaries, i.e., checking that the content of the summary faithfully represents the original article and improving the text to your best capacity. Contributors will be acknowledged on the website and those who fulfil our requirements (i.e., 10 reviews) will be invited to co-author any resulting manuscripts. The summaries will serve as a valuable resource for those with limited time or access, promoting educational equity.
