Description

Collecting teaching resources/material for open science loosely based on the principles of Software/Data Carpentry

This project idea was born during the conference call (https://pad.okfn.org/p/Open_Science_AG_Public_Call_013; blog post: http://www.ag-openscience.de/open-science-call-052016-barcamp-2-0-open-science-bildungsmaterial-etc/) of the German OKFN Open Science working group (http://www.ag-openscience.de/). Being frustrated with the current state of Open Science skills in the scientific community (and their dissemination) our first step would be to collect teaching material for Open Science (in all its facets). Our target community are (PhD) students, postdocs etc. at universities, to provide them the possibilities to work in an Open Science fashion. Ideas are currently collected in the issues of the GitHub repo. The second step could be providing teaching courses by volunteers as is done in the Software/Data Carpentry initiatives. Note: This is a very preliminary project idea and currently we're scouting the interwebs if any similar initiative is already running and/or if there's teaching material we can scavenge.

Note to the Project Lead

Congrats, @aleimba! This is your official project listing for the Mozilla Science Global Sprint 2016. To confirm your submission, please complete the following:

Here are some exercises that will help your project be more inviting to new contributors. We hope you'll try to complete some of these as you prepare for #mozsprint.

If you complete all the exercises, your project will be eligible to be featured in our collection of open source science projects! Once you've finished this list, contact @acabunoc to submit your project for review.

aleimba commented 8 years ago

Hi @acabunoc, thanks a lot for your fast response! Yep I'm pushing the members from @OKScienceDE so we'll have one available at both dates.

Ni!

Hi, this wiki-manual from the Brazilian group Ciência Aberta might be useful for you guys...

konrad commented 8 years ago

Great, thanks @solstag!

solstag commented 8 years ago

You're more than welcome, I'm sure our resources (meaning both are ours!) will profit from each other ! =)

I'm just not entirely convinced of why one would rather develop this kind of resource on github rather than on a wiki, though I totally get the usefulness of the issue system compared to the awful mediawiki discussion system. Perhaps we should find a way to combine both.

konrad commented 8 years ago

It really depend on the target format (which we first have to define) but the reason for git/GitHub is IMO easier resolution/avoidance of editing conflicts, more flexibility regarding markup and output format. Plus easier forking as well the mentioned tissue tracker. Hacking all this e.g. into Mediawiki is possible but so much more effort.

aleimba commented 8 years ago

Thanks @solstag for the material!

There will be two sites where we will be available in person during the sprint:

  1. On Thursday @matthiasfromm will be at the sprint-site in Berlin
  2. On Friday @aleimba and @konrad will be available at the University of Würzburg (exact location to be announced soon)

Hi @acabunoc,

we've completed the checklist to become a featured project. Please have a look at our repo for the review: https://github.com/OKScienceDE/Open_Science_101

Thanks, Andreas

abbycabs commented 8 years ago

Amazing @aleimba! I'll take a look today :)

abbycabs commented 8 years ago

Thanks @aleimba & team! I've updated the issue to link to all the great resources you created! 🎉 👍 I'll add your project as a featured project today!

konrad commented 8 years ago

Yay, many thanks @acabunoc! :tada:

aleimba commented 8 years ago

that's great @acabunoc, thanks a lot!

pherterich commented 8 years ago

I'm happy to give your repo a look today and tomorrow to see if I have any additional ideas. A shame that I haven't looked at this earlier, otherwise I could have made a trip back home and joined you in Wuerzburg in person.

aleimba commented 8 years ago

Hi @pherterich, sounds fantastic!

Too bad you can't join us in person, but we'll be available virtually for the whole #mozsprint: https://gitter.im/matthiasfromm/open-science-101

For any ideas, please see our issues: https://github.com/OKScienceDE/Open_Science_101/issues

And the milestone: https://github.com/OKScienceDE/Open_Science_101/milestones

npch commented 8 years ago

Edinburgh ( @marioa @selina-aragon ) are interested in knowing how they could contribute.

jcolomb commented 8 years ago

we work on a workshop for open science: https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/Berlin_Open_Science

aleimba commented 8 years ago

@jcolomb thanks for the heads up. Would probably be a good idea to link up. You want to join our Gitter (see above)? Are you in Berlin at the moment?

solstag commented 8 years ago

Just remembered another useful resource... the book Open Science, Open Issues was also originally written in Portuguese, but was professionally translated into English. The chapter on Open Hardware by Rafael Pezzi and the last chapter on guidelines (by me) I believe are particularly useful for OpenScience101. As anything over a year old nowadays they need a bit of updating, but nothing too serious ;)

aleimba commented 8 years ago

Hey @solstag, thanks for the contribution. I see you're very committed on open hardware ;-), but that's great. Would you like to include it yourself in our material collection on the Open Science Q&A site? https://openscience.uni-bielefeld.de/898/which-materials-exist-introducing-specific-audiences-science

This is born out of our issue https://github.com/OKScienceDE/Open_Science_101/issues/5
