Content
for Open Science –
Open the shell and show us your pearls!
Following a very fruitful response to our Call for
Training events
(we are now evaluating 45 proposals from 19 countries, and we
will notify
selected applicants before April 30th), FOSTER is
calling for
training content.
Have you, or your organization, created or
repackaged/reused quality
content (from briefing papers, to presentations, videos, etc) on
open access,
open data and open science in any language, which can be useful
and used in the
FOSTER training context? We
are now
calling for the community’s contributions to the identification
and mapping of
relevant content which can be used for FOSTER training, to equip
researchers,
project managers, administrators and future trainers with
knowledge of the
benefits of Open Science and compliance with the Horizon 2020
Mandate (Article
29.2 of the model Grant Agreement).
With your help, we want to showcase engaging and
instructive
training materials and reach out to diverse disciplinary
communities and
countries in the European Research Area.
We are looking for content that may vary widely
both in terms of
theme (from general open access advocacy, to discipline specific
promotion/training
for open science) and format (from individual texts, slides or
videos to full
packaged training objects or courses).
So, if you have produced, used, or are simply aware
of, quality
content on open access, open data and open science, and want to
give that
content a wider audience in collaboration with the FOSTER
training programme,
please describe it using the form available at: http://goo.gl/meV0EK
This call for content will remain open during the
project’s
lifetime, but we are aiming to have an initial relevant sample
of content by
early May, so we would be very grateful if you could submit your
content by April
30th.
