If you’re also willing to teach the course, awesome! Let us know in your suggestion, or even create it yourself on p2pu.org (it’s easy!). However, that’s not necessary to suggest a course, so keep the great ideas coming.

  1. Similar to a traditional research methodologies course, but with an emphasis on conducting research openly. Would cover open and online tools, data preservation, open notesbook science, current thinking and debates around open research, (open) peer review, authorship and licensing, funding opportunities, as well as covering methodologies and providing a community to support participants in fleshing out ideas into well formed research questions.

  18. There are huge amounts of open resources in Chinese - whether the Chinese Top Level Courses, Taiwanese Open CourseWare, stuff translated through MyOOPS or CORE, or all the other stuff existing. Would be great if people began putting together courses on any topic using Chinese open resources, with the discussion happening in Chinese.
