How to Open Science: Promoting Principles and Reproducibility Practices within the Learning @ Scale Community

Across the past decade, open science has increased in momentum, making research more openly available and reproducible. In addition, learning at scale systems have been developed to collect and apply models, features and reports to better support students and teachers towards their goals. In this tutorial, we will provide an overview of open science practices and their benefits and mitigation within research. In the second part of this tutorial, we will use the Open Science Framework to make, collaborate, and share projects - demonstrating how to make materials, code, and data open. The final part of this tutorial will go over some mitigation strategies when releasing datasets and materials so other researchers may easily reproduce them. Participants in this tutorial learn what the practices of open science are, how to use them in their own research, and how to use the Open Science Framework. The website(1) and associated resources can be found on an Open Science Framework project(2).
