Practicing Open Science: Principles, Ecosystems, and Tools

EGU General Meeting, Vienna, Austria, 2023

SC3.1 - Wed, 26 Apr, 8:30–10:15 (CEST)

In this short course, we will introduce participants to Open Science, the ecosystem that supports Open Science, and the values, practices and tools that enable that ecosystem. Participants will have the opportunity to explore the practical impact of Open Science, the tools that advance research and collaboration. This course is designed for students or other researchers new to open science, open science practices and tools that enable and support open science.

Participants in this course will be able to define open science, discuss the benefits and challenges of open science, and identify the practices that enable open science. Participants will be able to identify tools and resources that can be used to practice open science in their own research. Participants will be able to develop a plan to implement open science practices in the context of an individual researcher.

If taken with Practicing Open Science: Data, Software, and other Results, participants will gain a broad overview of open science for both individuals and teams and how to practice it with immediately applicable actions.
