About this Event
Time, date & location: Wednesday 8th of April 2-4pm, at the Netherlands eScience center in Amsterdam
Skill-up session by Angelos Konstantinidis, educational advisor from the University of Groningen.
This 2-hour interactive workshop supports research software trainers in strengthening their use of Open Educational Resources (OER). Structured around the 5R principles (Retain, Reuse, Revise, Remix, and Redistribute) the workshop invites participants to reflect on their existing training practices and make them more open.
Participants will explore a range of open programming resources beyond the Carpentries, including open curricula, interactive platforms, executable environments, and real-world open research software artefacts. Through hands-on, collaborative activities, they will evaluate, adapt, and combine resources to design learning experiences for their own training contexts.
The workshop emphasises learning-by-doing, participation in communities of practice, and open pedagogy. Participants act not only as users of open resources, but as contributors who shape, contextualise, and redistribute educational artefacts. By the end of the session, participants will leave with concrete strategies for embedding OER into research software training.
Learning outcomes
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Critically evaluate open programming resources for their pedagogical fit across different research software training contexts.
- Reuse, revise, and remix existing OER to suit specific training contexts
- Design experiential and problem-centred learning activities appropriate for research software engineers.
