🧪 New preprint on what open science could look like in leadership research from a qualitative perspective. Currently under review, but happy to take questions or suggestions!
By Camille Endacott, Brent Reed, and me
Some job news to share!
I feel really lucky to be stepping into this (remote-friendly) role, which will let me both return to my roots in libraries and carry forward the work around advancing #OpenScience that I’ve so enjoyed doing at @plos.bsky.social.

Hey qual and other non-experimental folks! I think it would be great to get some feedback on these policies for PCI Psych. Penny for your thoughts? 🧪
Saw something pretty cool today: a group included an audit trail in their work, citing one of @qualalab.org's papers as one of the inspirations for doing so. Check their paper on predicting and understanding vaccine hesitancy in adults out, if it's of interest!
What’s a "tactile internet” and how does it help blind and low-vision users? We talk with @chanceyfleet.bsky.social about the technology in the latest episode of “How to Fix the Internet.”

Project Updates New preprint from FORRT & Ceres Jacobs collaboration! The paper focuses on what Open Science can mean for educational technology research, including challenges, opportunities, and call for further research. Well done to Madeleine Pownall, Sakshi Ghai, Luisa Fassi, and all other authors! FORRT now has page where all FORRT contributors are formally recognized for their work. Check this out here, and see if all your contributions are properly credited. FORRT is now pursuing legal status in Germany (in addition to the UK via Open Collective). If you would like to help us to establish a "Verein" in Germany, please contact Flavio Azevedo on Slack. FORRT has been awarded grant by Invest in Open Infrastructure (IOI), for a project titled “Improving accessibility and usability of FORRT’s Open Educational Resources". If you have experience in user research, graphic/web design, and/or Hugo website development, we need your help! Please join the #team-website Slack channel.
News from our partner organizations FORRT is joining forces with Metadocencia and Access 2 Perspectives to map open science organizations across the globe. We will soon open opportunities for collaborators. Watch this space! Past events FORRT member, Veronica Allen, was invited to the European Astronomical Society 2023 Annual Meeting Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) session to discuss the Academic Wheel of Privilege. Well done Veronica for spreading FORRT's message! On Friday 22nd March, Open Life Science (OLS) and FORRT collaborated to host a workshop and survey investigating the intersection between big team science; diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility; and data science. We presented FORRT, its mission, initiatives, and future projects at the Open Science Retreat (25th to 29th of March). The Replications and Reversals team also presented twice at the Center for Open Science (COS) Conference. Well done to Lukas Wallrich, Lukas Röseler, and Helena Hartmann!
Funding FORRT We are currently raising funds with the aim to accelerate FORRT's impact and ensure its sustainability as a volunteer organisation. The more we raise, the more we can sustainably run our community. All donations large and small welcome! We are also seeking broader funding to support this work. If you know of a funding opportunity which might be relevant to FORRT, please contact Bethan Iley on Slack or via email (bethan@we-are-ols.org).

Our paper on #ResearchIntegrity is finally out 🥳 The material is from the focus groups we did for SOPs4RI. Our paper touches on systemic issues such as #precarity & #casualisation and how researchers use QRPs to reconcile epistemic & social forms of uncertainty.

My key takeaways were that people want qualitative perspectives reflected in the TOP Factor guidelines, etc., and we need reflect on the "why" of various open science practices. As I said in the meeting, I hope that this paper helps to start/continue these conversations. It's not the end-all-be-all!
Earlier this week, we were invited to a @reproducibilitea.bsky.social Leeds discussion of "Rethinking Transparency and Rigor from a Qualitative Open Science Perspective." It was really cool hearing people's thoughts about the paper and its implications!

Good to see another wave of wonderful people signing up. Hello from a Londoner in Scotland!
Looking forward to connecting with folks that share health and social research and all things qualitative.
Also on the look out for photography, comedy, gardening tips, travel stories, politics, pets…
This is TOMORROW! LET'S GO! 🧪
