Experiences of teaching open science – library and faculty working together

Abstract

How to make the practices of research data management (RDM) and open access publishing familiar to undergraduate students? In the fall of 2022, the Faculty of Pharmacy and the Helsinki University Library implemented a collaborative project in which the teaching of open science practices were included in the master’s students’ course. This blog article describes how the teaching was carried out and what was learned from it. After a successful pilot project, it is possible to offer similar training in other disciplines as well.
