ROER4D Project Objectives
![Page 11: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
To meet our explicit objectives we realised that we needed to undertake our research
as “openly” as possible
Open research
ROER4D Implicit objective: Open research
![Page 12: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Defining Open Research
ROER4D definition:
Open research is the process of conducting and sharing research in which a
selection of research proposals, work-process documents, literature reviews,
methodologies, research instruments, analytical frameworks, findings and/or data
are intentionally shared on publicly accessible platforms in order for others to
freely access, use, modify, and share them subject to measures that preserve
ethical practice and legal provenance.
How can open research
practices be achieved in the
ROER4D project? When does Open
Research conflict with
established doctrines in
research cultures?
![Page 13: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Four dimensions of openness
Process of engaging with open research has led to emergence of four
dimensions of open research
Grappling with their definitions and relationships is part of open research
process
![Page 14: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Defining ideological openness• Foundation of beliefs about the purpose and value of openness in
research
• While proponents of “radical openness” (Tapscott & Williams, 2013)
promote a wholly open approach; others such as Resnick (2006)
caution for the need for some secrecy and protection
• Belief that open research adds value to the research process
through the transparency and accountability gained through barrier-
free access to research outputs
Challenge: developing and explicating a
coherent ideology of openness is an
important foundational step towards
open research practices
![Page 15: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Towards ideological openness
• Developing a shared
understanding and vocabulary of
what openness was in the
context of our project.
• Developed a nuanced ideological
openness where research would
be open by default if it adds
value, is ethical and legal
• Getting to ideological openness
is a negotiated process where
misalignments become
apparent.

Defining legal openness
Legal openness refers to the use of appropriate alternative licensing
mechanisms such as Creative Commons, as well as the knowledge and
resources required to apply and/or negotiate open licensing, copyright
clearance, and the related intellectual property considerations that accompany the
decision to make outputs and data legally open and reusable.
Challenge: which legal permissions
would be feasible given subject matter,
what is valuable for users and
producers and what was practical?
![Page 17: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Towards legal openness
Sub-grant agreements stipulated that
(where possible) all outputs and findings
would be made available under a
Creative Commons licence
Challenge in publishing research data
necessitated a complex data publication
strategy (need to abide by ethical
principles and protection of research
participants)
Open licensing of internal reporting
documents necessitated a more
restrictive licence – CC-BY-ND.

Defining technical openness
Technical openness refers to
• the use of open file formats and open software development standards to
ensure equitable access
• publication platforms that support open licensing and provide secure, long-
term access to resources with adequate metadata to ensure discoverability;
• openly published datasets that allow for the data (and thus the analysis and
conclusions) to be interrogated and elaborated upon.
Outputs can manifest varying degrees of openness depending
on their technical format/mode of publication which are not
aligned with licensing provisions or ideological intentions of
authors
![Page 19: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Towards technical openness
Four elements that facilitate open research practices:
• Collaboration – project docs to be written & edited within and beyond network
• Availability – outputs to be hosted on secure , stable platforms for no-cost
accessibility and discoverability
• Revisability – utilising open file formats (with open licensing)
• Verification – tools and instruments to support analysis and interrogation of
research results.
All tools, file formats and
platforms to provide no-cost
access and are freely
available
![Page 20: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Towards technical openness - collaboration
An intention of Open Research is to
enable collaboration between
researchers
Use of cloud-based authoring tool
Google Drive enables researchers and
mentors to create, edit, review and
comments across 16 time zones
Due to limited connectivity and
insufficient experience, Google Drive is
used mainly by Network Hub Team but
remains useful storage space and for
viewing latest versions of documents
Use less technically open tools such
as MS Word when required

Towards technical openness - discoverability Open Research practice relies on stable curatorial platforms for sharing
project outputs and to ensure outputs remain accessible after project ends.
Need to support open licencing, support multiple content types and genres,
assure long-term stability, zero-cost deposit or access; use of international
metadata standards
Online Open Repository platform such as FigShare, Zenodo and SlideShare
remain options
Chosen Zenodo to
host final research
outputs

Towards technical openness - revisability
File formats exist on a spectrum of technical openness: impacts on their
accessibility, revisability and remixability
More ‘closed’ formats can be viewed with free software (PDF/EPUB) but are
less revisable without proprietary software.
More ‘open formats’ such as ODT, ODS, HTML, XML allow for remixing of
constituent elements using open source software
Other formats such as MS Word facilitate reuse and revision and would be a
popular choice but requires proprietary software
Aware of tensions between our
choice of formats and user
preferences and kinds of reuse we
wanted (e.g. use of PDF)
Committed to releasing final
outputs under a range of
formats
![Page 23: DIMENSIONS OF OPEN RESEARCH: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON ... · 3 year project (27 Aug 2013 - 27 Aug 2016 with an extension to Feb 2017) Grant 1 - IDRC CAD 2 million & OSF Grant 2 - DFID](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071220/605e810386d5be7fd21cd619/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Towards technical openness - verification Open Research practice implies a value-added component to the research
process – interrogation of open data contributes to verifying the research
Tool or platform requires access to data that underpins analysis and
conclusions and to enable third-party and longitudinal/latitudinal studies.
Partnered with DataFirst.
To guide researchers, the project launched the ROER4D Open Data Initiative
and developed a series of Guidelines for researchers to encourage data
sharing

Defining operational openness
The enactment of ideological, legal and technical principles in the course of conducting research:
Practices that emerge as a result of critical reflection on where to be more or less open as specific context dictates
“if it adds value” has been a touchstone when grappling/choosing between commitment to ideological openness and when a more nuanced approach is required
An agile and strategic approach to support research management process

Towards operational openness
Sharing and maintaining an open ROER4D Research Bibliography for
reuse; sharing research instruments and some data
Open communications strategy: engaging stakeholders early in project
and sharing early findings through website
Intention to release draft research reports for comment (mid 2016)
