Hi there Just a quick message to announce that a new four-week course on Open Research is now available for sign-up on School of Open! The course, which is open for sign-up until Friday 12 September, was created by the award winning Hewlett funded OER Research Hub (based at The Open University (UK)) in collaboration with the Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) and Creative Commons. Over six months in the making and peer-reviewed by the community, this new School of Open course offers the opportunity to explore the concept and practices of open research with participants from around the world. The course has been designed for any researcher who has an interest in utilising open techniques and practices in their own research. Join researchers Bea de los Arcos, Rob Farrow, Beck Pitt, and project manager Natalie Eggleston for this four-week course that explores what open research is and the issues involved around it, including: ethics, dissemination, reflection, and evaluation. The course starts Monday, 15 September 2014 and features its very own “Open Research” badge for course completion and participation.
