UKRN Open Research Resources

Animations, Primers, Videos and Training Materials to Support Open Research

Briefing and Training Resources

The animations are short, 2 min introductions to the open research practice and why a researcher might be interested in it.
The videos are 10 min accounts by researchers of how the open research practice is relevant to them, and their experiences in adopting it.
The primers are 3-4 page summary documents that describe the open research practice, why a researcher might be interested in it, how it can be adopted, and where to find further information.
The documents listed under ‘Training Materials’ linked to the table below are a guide to the materials developed by UKRN in partnership with others (see the licensing information on the materials) to support ‘train the trainer’ workshops in five open research topics: open software / code, sharing research data, preregistration, preprints and open access to publications. The workshops have been iterated and revised twice and so should be a good basis, but will need to be adapted for any specific circumstances. They should be seen as the ingredients and the recipe, not the cake.
