Open Access & Research Data Management: Applying Open Science in Research Projects

on the profession (occupational)

AN

In recent years, the development of open science has significantly transformed the conditions and requirements set by both international and national funding bodies for research, development, and innovation. The core open science practices within research projects include open access publishing and research data management. This course aims to highlight model requirements and demonstrate practical pathways to meeting them. We will present the main open access models, options for covering APCs, Creative Commons licensing, and the role of publication repositories. The course will also introduce the fundamentals of research data management in line with the FAIR principles, including the key components of a Data Management Plan (DMP). In addition, the course will briefly cover optional open?science practices that appear in some grant calls, such as preregistration of research intentions, creation of open educational resources, and public engagement in research (citizen science). Practical tips, recommendations, and guidance, such as suggested tools, platforms, and useful websites, will also be included as part of the programme.

The learning objectives include acquiring fundamental knowledge of open science principles, understanding the requirements and conditions of open access publishing, and gaining clarity on opportunities for sharing research data in line with the FAIR principles. The course further aims at enabling the practical application of this knowledge through the selection of suitable open access publishing models and funding options, the choice of appropriate open licences and relevant publication or data repositories, and the implementation of essential research data management practices.

The LLL programme is designed for the staff of Palacký University in Olomouc

Upon completing this course, participants will gain a solid foundational understanding of open science. They will become familiar with the various models and opportunities for publishing in open access, as well as the key principles for managing open research data, not only in relation to project calls that require the application of open science practices. The course also provides practical guidance, recommendations, and useful tips to support participants in their own research activities.
