About
In a nutshell, FORRT is a Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training which is advancing research transparency, reproducibility, rigor, and ethics through pedagogical reform and meta-scientific research.
FORRT provides a pedagogical infrastructure and open educational resources designed to support the teaching and mentoring of open and reproducible science. FORRT strives to:
- raise awareness of the pedagogical implications of open and reproducible science and its associated challenges (i.e., curricular reform, epistemological uncertainty, methods of education);
- respond to calls to consider open scholarship as inclusive scholarship;
- advocate for the opening and formal recognition of teaching and mentoring materials to facilitate access, discovery, and learning to those who otherwise would be educationally disenfranchised.
What are FORRT’s goals?
- Build, together with educators, a pathway towards the incremental adoption of open scholarship practices into higher education
- Generate a conversation about the ethics and social impact of a higher education pedagogy that emphasizes openness, epistemic uncertainty and research credibility
- Promote a reflection about the perceived importance of different academic activities and advocate for greater recognition of educational resources
