Responsible Open Science: Video Lectures
ModulesResponsible Open Science: Video Lectures
These video lectures can be used independently or in conjunction with the ROSiE Responsible Open Science training materials. The ROSiE training materials examine a variety of topics from multiple disciplinary perspectives, including humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, health and life sciences, and citizen science. The video lectures provide a concise introduction to ethical issues in Open Science, which may be followed by engagement with training materials for further exploration of discipline-specific topics.
Each lecture is organised into multiple segments, focusing on a distinct topic. Upon completion of a segment, participants are expected to complete a quiz covering the material discussed. Additionally, certain lectures include case studies that provide an opportunity to reflect on how the concepts learned can be applied to practical ethical issues in Open Science.
Finally, if you want to get more information on a particular topic, there is a list of further reading for each lecture.
