Event Calendar

The goal of this methodology course is to give interested, young scientists an understanding of the essential elements of quantitative and qualitative content analysis.

Under the theme “Metadata in Action,” this conference is where diverse perspectives meet. Infrastructure providers, data stewards, researchers, and centre operators come together to exchange ideas, showcase solutions, and discuss how metadata acts towards shaping data quality, interoperability, and innovation in research. Whether you design infrastructures, manage data, or conduct research, this is your opportunity to see how improved metadata practices lead to better science. Join us to explore how metadata is not just managed - but making a difference.

Our goal is to facilitate the development of open research practices explicitly geared to serve the public interest, which involves interrogating what may constitute that ‘public interest’ to different audiences and in different locations around the world. A central element for our discussions will be the development of a Munich Manifesto for Equitable Open Research, detailing ways to utilise open research to foster reliable, responsible, and equitable forms of inquiry. A draft text of the manifesto will be circulated two weeks before the conference to all participants, and one session of the conference will be dedicated to discussing and finalising the declaration and its possible signatories.

This input looks at how Open Access publications are handled in the context of **Horizon Europe funding requirements**, and what this means in practice for researchers and institutions. It also highlights the role of major publishers such as Wiley, Elsevier, and Springer Nature, particularly in the context of Germany’s nationwide DEAL agreements.

During the workshop, you will first learn about the most important (legal) principles for the use and creation of open educational materials. The core of the workshop is the practical design of open teaching/learning scenarios. Using real use cases, you will discuss the opportunities and challenges of open teaching and learn how you can integrate OER into the phases of lesson planning, implementation and follow-up in a meaningful way. You will also get to know the functions and features of our portal www.twillo.de a little better.

How do machines learn to make the right choices? How can individuals, firms, organizations, and researchers use automated decision-making? This course provides an introduction and intuition for designing algorithms that allow machines to learn based on reinforcements. Reinforcement learning provides decision rules based on learning from partial, implicit, and delayed feedback. The course includes 4 live Online Meetings, in which you will discuss the week’s contents with the instructor and fellow participants.

The Barcamp Open Science is a barcamp dedicated to the Open Science movement. It is open to everybody interested in connecting with like-minded people embracing Open Science, unlocking new perspectives and networking on Open Science, and thriving Open Science together! Save the date!

Wie kann man künstliche Intelligenz sinnvoll und nachhaltig zum Erstellen von Multimediamaterial einsetzen?

Die 10|KSWD wird einen interdisziplinären und offenen Dialog zur Weiterentwicklung der Forschungsdateninfrastruktur fördern und gemeinsame Perspektiven für eine verantwortungsbewusste Nutzung sensibler Daten eröffnen. Neben nationalen Herausforderungen werden auch Fragen des europäischen und internationalen Datenaustauschs in den Blick genommen. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Fragen rund um die Infrastruktur zur Forschung mit Daten und deren Bedeutung für Wissenschaft, Politik und Gesellschaft. Fundierte, aktuelle und verlässliche Daten sind die Voraussetzung, um gesellschaftliche und wirtschaftliche Entwicklungen zu verstehen und zu gestalten.

Im Workshop widmen wir uns dem Design von OER-Materialien auf ganz praktische Weise. Lehrkonzeption und Mediendesign mit gängigen Bordmitteln: Wie erstelle ich Materialien, worauf sollte ich didaktisch achten, wie publiziere ich meine OER sicher und sichtbar.

Mit Hilfe von künstlicher Intelligenz OER-Materialien verschlagworten.

This course focuses on quantitative empirical accounting research, covering theoretical, methodological and technical aspects of this research program. It also introduces students to the concepts of Open Science. In terms of applications, it concentrates on financial and other related disclosure issues but also touches on some managerial and auditing topics. After this course, participants should have a clear understanding about the theoretical foundations of quantitative empirical accounting research, know the methodological approaches to and common pitfalls of empirical research designs, have become familiar with a collaborative open science workflow using R/Python/Stata and Github, know how to execute empirical archival studies, including the usability and inter-operability of different data sources and, based on their own research proposal, have received constructive feedback on how to design and execute a viable study in the area of quantitative empirical accounting research.

We are excited to invite you to PUBMET2026, the 13th Conference on Scholarly Communication in the Context of Open Science, a dynamic event that brings together researchers, publishers, librarians, and policymakers to explore the evolving landscape of scholarly communication.

This event aims at connecting RDM-enthusiastic communities with interesting presentations, engaging session discussions, and plenty of networking opportunities.

Das fünfte DSgG Community-Treffen findet unter dem Motto “DSgG - from going to growing” statt.

The course targets researchers who are interested in understanding, conducting, and publishing meta-analytic research. Participants will learn how to conduct and publish a high-quality meta-analysis in the area of management and business research.
