The fifth and final day of the Open Science Center Summer School 2025 is completed โ We have concluded a week full of learning, discussing, and practicing open science and open research skills. You can check out the slides and recordings of all the public lectures here: https://osf.io/x639j/files/osfstorage.
๐ Hereโs a recap of Day 5:
๐ก Participants joined breakout groups based on their interests in either open access, preregistration, computational reproducibility, or FAIR research data management. Facilitators guided these focused discussions, giving participants the chance to dive deeper into each topic.
๐ฏ To put new knowledge into action, Sarah von Grebmer led interactive activities where participants explored how to apply open science practices to their own projects. Together, they considered potential challenges and brainstormed strategies to overcome them.
๐ In collaboration with @FORRT we launched the Train-the-Trainer programme, featuring insightful talks and hands-on activities led by Barbara Beege, Sarah von Grebmer, and Franziska Schrade. Participants explored teaching strategies, both online and offline, along with didactics, tools, and techniques. They also collaborated in groups to design ways of promoting open science practices in their own communities and explore their role as emerging leaders of open science.
Although the Summer School has come to a close, the momentum continues! We encourage you to keep exploring these topics and reach out if youโre interested in bringing open science skills into your own research journey.
