LIBJ1001 Open Science Resource (1 cr)
Description
This resource is an introduction to open science and research principles and practices for doctoral students and other research active members new to Open Science and Research.
Open responsible science is a contemporary way of planning the research process. Participants will explore different aspects of open science and consider the advantages to their own research.
Open science is about the whole research process from planning your research to data management to publishing and scientific communication. Advantages of open science include increased visibility for the research and improved accessibility.
At every step the material can be related to the research you are working on and aims to support your progress as a researcher.
