WEBINAR NOTES https://tinyurl.com/FORCE11-SCWG-webinar

We are at a crossroads: we think we know what the Scholarly Commons is and are looking for ways to move forward We are asking you for:

  • your opinion (and suggestions) on what is worth pursuing
  • your interest to contribute in any of the proposed activities

Library of high level decision trees that can be adapted for each community

  • Built on open source software stack so they are available to the

community

  • Recommendations are generic but can be adapted for more specific

uses

○ e.g., FAIR Data recommendation: Deposit your data in a specialist repository if one is available ○ SCI: Deposit your data in the Open Data Commons for Spinal Cord Injury

  • Why should I participate?
  • What can I do?

–e.g. supply domain knowledge, support Policy Models software, help with funding

  • We need more capacity to allocate persistent identifiers, input metadata and provenance

information, attribute actions and works and automate versioning.

  • What are the consequences of investing (not monetary but time and effort)?
  • What are the consequences of NOT investing (money, time AND effort)?

Technology is part of this.

The cultural and technical are one. We cannot look at one without seeing the

In response to the Subversive Proposal:

“Right now, the research system works in an extremely complex manner where pecking

  • rders, legitimacy, memory building through

proper archiving and bibliographic efforts and even communication :-) takes place. This is the given and we must start from there while, simultaneously conjuring up the right vision for the future. In short we must simultaneously have the right vision of the present and the right vision of the future to have a chance to chart the right course between now and the future. The word “right” occurs three times in this sentence and it points to the fundamental difficulty of the

  • task. In fact it is daunting, but it should not

discourage us.” (Jean-Claude Guédon 1994)

Current approaches & where we are

SLIDE 61

Our goals & current approaches

Scholarly Commoning Laboratory Understanding the context Designing for fitness iterate

slide-62
SLIDE 62

Understanding the context

“Christopher Alexander discusses the process by which a form is adapted to the context of human needs and demands that has called it into being. He shows that such an adaptive process will be successful only if it proceeds piecemeal instead of all at once.… When the designer, in our own self-conscious culture, is called on to create a form that is adapted to its context he is unsuccessful, because the preconceived categories out of which he builds his picture of the problem do not correspond to the inherent components of the problem, and therefore lead only to the arbitrariness, willfulness, and lack of understanding which plague the design of modern buildings and modern cities.” (source)

slide-63
SLIDE 63

Understanding the context

We’re developing a list of scenarios about the types of interactions which might occur in a scholarly commons. A common theme to those scenarios is connections. We are developing a list of questions as well as ways to manage and preserve these questions and the process of finding answers. We are aggregating a pool of topics/projects, from which we will reach out and invite leaders

  • f these topics or projects to weekly calls for

discussion.

slide-64
SLIDE 64

Designing for fitness

Constant experimentation with approaches that may help to preserve the continuity of a broad-reaching, multi-faceted exploratory research process (cf. The Challenge). Example: We’ve run into the problem of having a lot of distributed raw information and need something to make it easier for new people to understand what our process is, where we are in that process, and how best to participate. A proposal was made that we try Knowen to see how well it could help with this task: http://knowen.org/nodes/23403

Where we want to go & how you can get involved

slide-66
SLIDE 66

End goal

??? (this is still and will continue to be under discussion) Possibilities include:

  • “Some kind of decentralised knowledge map that could connect all kinds
  • f scholarly/knowledge commons, be they from academic, diy,

indigenous, non-western etc communities.”

  • To build some sort of map using the raw data we will have collected;

something that could eventually be useful to humans and machines in helping with next steps of research. Something that could be very basic at first but with an ability to scale in complexity and diversity.

slide-67
SLIDE 67

Ways to get involved

  • Join the group!
  • If you are working on something or just have a topic that you think would

be useful for us to explore, add it to the list of topics.

  • If you have research questions that you think we should think about, add

them to the list of questions.

  • If you have an idea for a future scenario that you would like us to think

about or that you have been wanting to express, add it to the list of scenarios.

  • If you have ideas on how to help preserve the continuity of a

broad-reaching, multi-faceted exploratory research process, come and share your ideas with us.

SLIDE 74

Discussion points

  • Is there more to be done?

○ The current steering group thinks so but believe focus should be through subgroups

  • Broad goals - is it helpful to define some?

○ Understanding what the Scholarly Commons means in practice ○ Driving adoption of Scholarly Commons principles

  • Sub-groups - what areas should we be focussing on?

○ Current: Inclusivity, Principles, Decision Trees, Enabling Technologies ○ Other groups? What interests you?

  • Related activities - who should we be engaging with?

○ There are many...
