Open Science practices in the Humanities and Social Sciences

Welcome to this course which will provide you with a general introduction to Open Science practices, also know as Open Research. You will find out how these are connected to FAIR data practices and access control to data. We recommend you complete this course before starting the course on Sensitive Data in the Humanities and Social Sciences.

Open Science

By the end of the course you will be able to:

  • Describe how Open Science practices are connected to FAIR data practices and access control to data.
  • Explain the benefits of Open Science and how EOSC facilitates it.
  • Successfully understand the concept of FAIR data and how sensitive data can still be shared in the research process under the assumption of “as open as possible, as closed as necessary”.

Open Science practices focus on collaboration and contribution of other researchers. The benefits of Open Science, and how EOSC facilitates Open Science are discussed. The concept of FAIR data is introduced and we show how sensitive data can still be shared in the research process under the assumption of “as open as possible, as closed as necessary”. Content in this course is also applicable to other research disciplines and for a general understanding of the concepts that are presented.

Objectives

This course aims to:

  • Examine Open Science practices and how to adapt them in order to accommodate and protect personal/sensitive data.
  • Understand how to start Open Science discussions within your own institution.
