Module description

Through a researcher’s story approach, this ePoc micro-learning module revisits the fundamental concepts of Open Science and FAIR research. It also explores how the latest solutions, like those developed by the OSTrails project, contribute with practical tools and strategies to streamline FAIRness, and make research outputs interconnected and machine actionable.

It is designed for PhD students, master's students and early career researchers.

You can choose to complete it if you feel you would benefit from revisiting the fundamentals and gain additional context on the evolving Open Science landscape, or skip it if you already feel confident in your knowledge and want to dive directly in the detailed content.

If you do take this micro-learning module, you have the choice between 2 learning experiences:

1. On the ePoc mobile app for the best viewing experience
2. On this OpenPlato platform, via a Web player for ePoc modules

Content

As Dr. Ada Carter navigates her research project from finding and reusing research data to producing data and publishing her research outputs, the micro-learning module: 

• highlights the benefits of managing research outputs in the context of FAIR, Open Science;
• introduces the fundamental roles of the Data Management Plans (DMPs), Science Knowledge graphs (SKGs) and FAIR principles to facilitate Open Science;
• explains the good practices to share open FAIR research data and evaluate their FAIRness;
• illustrates the latest vision and solutions developed to guide and assist researchers in making research output management live and connected.
