Before you start: what to include in your theme page
The ideal theme page for the Embassy presents a research integrity and ethics topic in a clear, concise, and engaging manner. Here are some tips to help you craft content that aligns with our style:
- Select a Relevant Topic: Choose a subject relevant to research integrity and ethics (and which hasn't already been covered). Make sure it fits within one of the main categories: Principles & Aspirations, Good Practices, or Misconduct & Misbehaviors.
- Write a Concise Introduction: Begin with a brief overview that outlines the topic and highlights its significance in the context of good scientific practices. The tone here should be accessible and inviting!
- Structure the Content Logically: Fill out your theme page in an organised way using our default headings and subheadings to guide readers through the information. At a minimum, your theme page should include a title, some information about why your topic is important, and one target group listed in the "For whom is this important?" box!
- Link to Related Resources: Add links to relevant guidelines, cases, educational materials, and other resources available on the Embassy. This provides interested readers with opportunities for deeper exploration and practical application, and allows users to make the most of what the Embassy has to offer!
- Use an Objective Tone: Your theme page should try present information about your topic as factually and impartially as possible. You should avoid including personal opinions and support statements with credible sources wherever possible.
- Use Clear and Accessible Language: Write in a straightforward manner, avoiding jargon and complex terminology as much as you can. The goal is to make the content understandable to a diverse audience, including those who may not have specialized knowledge - try to write in language that could be understood by teenagers, older relatives, and adults with minimal scientific knowledge alike!
