RSEs operate in a research ecosystem where the research process is rapidly becoming more open and reproducible. This event will deliver three components:
- A practical introduction to ongoing and emerging innovations (e.g., open publishing, data sharing, reproducible computation, code check), drawing on The Carpentries’ “7 Steps towards Reproducible Research” materials;
- Pedagogical guidance on how to effectively train colleagues and support adoption of these practices, plus a discussion session on challenges and opportunities for convincing peers to engage;
- A co-creation session to create a customised version of these materials focusing on the priorities most relevant to RSEs.
The training will be led by Danny Garside, DRA trainer and community manager, who brings experience presenting this material in train-the-trainer contexts with UKRN. The session will also draw on lessons learnt from DRA’s delivery of the OSPARK Bootcamp - a program which equips Open Science advocates with communication and outreach skills.
