Call for Project Presentations

Open Science Conference 2017 (March 21-22, 2017 in Berlin, Germany)

 

The  <http://www.open-science-conference.eu> Open Science Conference 2017 is
the 4th international conference of the Leibniz Research Alliance Science
2.0. It is a continuation and development of the former Science 2.0
Conference. It is dedicated to the Open Science movement and provides a
unique forum where researchers, librarians, practitioners, politicians, and
other important stakeholders can discuss and exchange their ideas and
experiences. 

The thematic focus of this call for project presentations is on “open
educational resources”. Open educational resources include course materials
(print and digital), modules, streaming videos, software, and any other
tools, materials, or techniques used to support open access to knowledge. 

Within this context, this call invites librarians, scientists, and
university lecturers to submit project descriptions covering topics
including (but not limited to):

·         Innovative Open Science methods, applications and prototypes
supporting daily scientific working routines 

·         Innovative tools and methods for managing, storing and sharing of
Open Educational Resources (OER)

·         Best practices and case studies for Open Science and Open
Educational Resources

·         Repositories, networks and working platforms for open scientific
communication, collaboration, exchange and access to knowledge

Please submit your abstract in English that describes the main idea and
implementation degree of the project, its innovative impact, the pursued
strategy for sustainability, and the degree of openness. The project should
be at least in a pilot phase. The abstracts may not be longer than 500
words. 

All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the members of the programme
committee based on the criteria implementation status, innovation,
relevance, sustainability and openness. Authors of accepted abstracts will
be invited to present a poster and a lightning talk at the conference. The
abstract, the poster and the lightning talk must be submitted and presented
in English. 

To also contribute to the open science movement, the programme committee
will publish the scientific justification for acceptance on the conference
website. All accepted posters (including the abstract) will be displayed on
the conference website in advance. Additionally, the posters will be listed
