With this form, you create a step-by-step module on research integrity or ethics. This can be used to provide instruction on a particular topic. You might want to use it for a tutorial, teaching material, case analysis tool, or an educational game.

Every single module is intended for just one type of user. That sets it apart. It might be that you write an instruction for a group session with a facilitator and participants. You would then need to write two pages, one with the steps for facilitators and one with the steps for participants.

Before you submit, please be aware of our community guidelines.

This activity builds on the content of the third episode of Earth to Research, titled Myths and Rituals: Art-Science, Sustainable Tech, and Degrowth. This episode explores how research and innovation can be re-imagined in the context of ecological crisis. Guest Sofia Greaves describes her nonlinear journey from classics studies to art-science collaborations and degrowth studies, showing how interdisciplinary knowledge can reshape how we understand sustainability.

Degrowth is presented not as a singular doctrine but as a plural, evolving critique of economic growth that highlights the impossibility of infinite expansion on a finite planet. Sofia explains that degrowth involves questioning dominant assumptions, valuing multiple knowledge systems, and experimenting with alternative ways of organising society, science, and technology.

A major theme is the importance of collaboration between artists and scientists. Art-science projects can help researchers slow down, reflect, and develop more caring and embodied ways of relating to the environment. Examples include ritual-based research on forever chemicals and artistic inquiries into lithium extraction that reveal unseen ecological relationships. These collaborations foreground uncertainty, challenge technological “fix” narratives, and generate new stories and perspectives. The conversation concludes that sustainability is a social, ethical and epistemic challenge (not just a technological one) and that creative, reflexive, cross-disciplinary approaches are vital in research.
