Die RDA Community in Deutschland will dazu beitragen, dass der Austausch von Daten verstärkt und die Wiederverwendung von Daten effizienter wird. Sie umfasst Datenexpertinnen und -experten in Deutschland, die sich in der Research Data Alliance (RDA) engagieren bzw. ein Interesse an den Ergebnissen der RDA haben.

Curious how others handle ethical or governance challenges around data access and privacy? Do you have data that drives you crazy and need somebody to talk about it? Wondering if you have the best method to get the most out of your data? Or maybe you just have a data-related question that has been on your mind for a while, but you have not had the right space to ask it? If you have questions likes these, we invite you to join us for an engaging unconference-style workshop fostering collaboration and innovation across business, economics, and related research fields. Share insights, connect with peers, and create tangible outcomes on topics like reproducible research, unstructured data, and AI.

At this conference we will be asking essential questions, sharing bold ideas, and forging collaborative strategies for what comes next. Through lively panels and discussions, participants will tackle the most pressing themes for open access books today, with a focus on collective action. It’s an opportunity for people across the community-led open access ecosystem to chart the next phase of open access publishing, together.

It is a week that celebrates and promotes open research for researchers and colleagues who support open research. Whilst some sessions are UK-focused, others will be of interest to colleagues around the world.

This online course is dedicated to the use of AI-powered tools in research. It offers an overview of existing AI tools and how they can be integrated at different stages of research: project planning and organization, literature review, data analysis, and the reporting and communication of results. We will discuss the opportunities these tools provide but also their limitations and how to critically evaluate them. Finally, we will address ethical considerations and the current standards for transparently disclosing one’s own use of AI.

Für den Forschungsraum Berlin-Brandenburg ist das faire und nachhaltige Finanzieren von  Open Access ein drängendes Thema (Neufend et al. 2024), das aufgrund der Unsicherheiten in der Finanzierung von Wissenschafts- und Kulturerbe-Einrichtungen alle Einrichtungstypen unterschiedlich betrifft. In dieser Veranstaltung möchten wir mit Akteur*innen ins Gespräch kommen, die bereits eine nachhaltige, faire und kollektive Finanzierung von Open Access unterstützen und ermöglichen.

In diesem einführenden Workshop wird das Zentrale Open Educational Resources Repositorium für Baden-Württemberg (ZOERR) vorgestellt. Dabei geht es sowohl um die Nutzung aus Anwenderperspektive als auch um die Autorenseite. Zusätzlich werden die Features erläutert und Fragen zu Lizensierung, persistenten Identifikatoren usw. beantwortet.

Would you like to use artificial intelligence (AI) in education and be on the safe side legally? Are you working with Open Educational Resources (OER) and wondering how you can use AI tools in a legally compliant way and create innovative teaching materials?
Then we cordially invite you to our workshop "AI, OER and law - solving practical cases together". After a theoretical part on copyright issues relating to the creation of (OER) teaching materials with AI, we will solve practical cases in groups and thus learn how to use AI programs in a legally compliant manner.

Die Schulung behandelt die Benutzung des Zentralen OER-Repositoriums im Detail, sowohl aus Sicht von OER-Nutzenden als auch von Leuten, die Ihre OER über das ZOERR teilen möchten

The community at CAT has a long history of thinking about how to instigate radical change in complex environments. We’re looking forward to learning more about the history and future of CAT, and thinking about where the interests of our communities overlap and where we might be able to collaborate.

This course exposes participants to the ‘world of possibilities’ in literature reviews in various fields. The seminar enables PhD students to understand basic purposes and approaches of different types of literature reviews and to apply them properly to their own individual research topics.

Do you ever feel that the data you need for your research is accessible but it’s not in a convenient table, such as company reports or building plans? Perhaps the information you need is spread out across many different documents? If only we could read and extract structured data from thousands of written documents. In this course, we explore how to accomplish this task by combining web scraping, Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and Natural Language Processing (NLP). Over four weeks, we provide online lessons and interactive sessions to learn the fundamentals of these key technologies.
The course includes 4 live Online Meetings, in which you will discuss the week’s contents with the instructor and fellow participants.

Wie kann ich h5p gezielt für meine OER-Produktion einsetzen, wie funktioniert der „remix“ von h5p-Elementen und wie binde ich die Lerninhalte in mein LMS ein?

Wege zu guten Ergebnissen im Umgang mit Künstlicher Intelligenz. Wie kann durch optimiertes Prompting OER-Design unterstützt werden?

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

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.

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.
