A gentle reminder from the past about the hashtag#OpenScience Principles
My dearly missed friend and colleague, the late Jon Tennant was on a mission to make Open Science easily adoptable by the global scholarly community and built the OpenScienceMOOC where MOOC stands for Massive Open Online Course and/or Community.
“We live in a really exciting time for global research! All around the world are whispers of Open Science, also sometimes called hashtag#OpenScholarship or hashtag#OpenResearch. Often, the values and principles that underpin open research practices include things such as inclusivity, equity, and freedom. These are key to developing a sense of shared understanding of open science within the global research community, as well as connections with the wider ‘open movement’. On the other hand, Open Science is often described as a set of research practices, divided into two main parts. The first is output-based, and includes things such as sharing code and data, as well as making research articles themselves freely available. The second is process-based, and more about adding more methodological transparency to improve things such as reproducibility. In this module, we want to step back a bit from this practical view of open science, and focus on the principles. To help get things kicked off, we have spoken with 6 researchers from every corner of the globe: Indonesia, Hungary, USA, Australia, Ecuador, and Benin. These are their open science stories.”
