The second full module to be completed for the Open Science MOOC, is ready and available for registration. It follows Module 5 on Open Source and Open Research Software, and is another incredibly thorough piece to a course which is set to span 10 modules of progressive information.
The Open Principles module introduces you to the foundational principles underpinning the open science movement; detailing more than just open access as a means to read research.
The key learning outcomes from this module will leave you with:
- The ability to describe the ethical, legal, social, economic, and research impact arguments for and against Open Science.
- Techniques to decide which platforms, tools, and services are most useful for you, as well as themselves and their intended communities
- The skills to develop a personal profile for showcasing your research profile and outputs.
- Reflection on the status of Open Science within your research group or lab, to help you devise concrete ways to locally improve open practices.
- The ability to identify the policies of your institute, lab or department that will facilitate career progression and assessment, publishing and open access, data sharing, and intellectual property.
