Open Research Conversation: Reproducibility and the Curriculum
Reproducibility has gained significant attention in the context of research practice, yet the teaching of reproducible methods has received somewhat less consideration. In this webinar, Aneta Piekut (Sheffield Methods Institute/TIER Executive Committee) and Project TIER Directors Richard Ball and Norm Medeiros shared their experiences and perspectives on embedding reproducible workflows, data management, and transparent documentation in teaching and research advising.
Teaching Reproducible Research and Open Science Conference
Organized by Aneta Piekut (Sheffield Methods Institute/TIER Executive Committee), Jenni Adams (University Library, University of Sheffield) and Project TIER, this in-person event consisted of a one-day symposium with conference style presentations, a workshop on teaching transparent methods of empirical research, and individual and small group in-person consultations with Project TIER Directors Richard Ball and Norm Medeiros.
Reproducible Workflows: Make your life easier (and increase the value of your research)
Human Factors and Ergonomics Society: HFES
Project TIER Directors Richard Ball and Norm Medeiros discussed the benefits to researchers of adopting a reproducible workflow for computational/quantitative work. The webinar sketched out the fundamental principles of conducting reproducible research, and presented specifications for constructing documentation that is easily shareable and satisfies the policies for replication materials that are now commonly adopted by journals and funders. The examples used to illustrate reproducible practices were implemented with R Markdown, but the underlying principles can be applied to research conducted with any scriptable software package.
Panel Discussion: Teaching reproducibility in undergraduate education
This panel discussed teaching reproducibility with the TIER Protocol, involving undergraduates in replications based on restricted-access data, and other topics. Panelists included Richard Ball (Project TIER co-director), Diego Mendez-Carbajo (St. Louis Fed), and Lars Vilhuber (Cornell ILR and AEA Data Editor).
This panel was part of the Conference on Reproducibility and Replicability in Economics and the Social Sciences, a series of ten events that took place over the course of the 2022-23 academic year.
Southern Economic Association
Richard Ball gave a talk on "Teaching Reproducibility: Principles and Flexibility" at an Economic Education Presidential Session on Pedagogy and Economic Education.
BITSS Open Research Seminar
Richard Ball (Project TIER), Fernando Hoces de la Guardia (BITSS), and Abel Brodeur (Institute for Replication) jointly presented a seminar titled "The Life Cycle of a Reproduction: from Ex Ante Documentation to Ex Post Reproduction and Beyond." Project TIER Executive Committee Member Anne Nurse moderated the discussion.
This event was one in a series of four Seminars on Open Research organized in the fall of 2022 by the Berkeley Institute for Transparency in the Social Sciences (BITSS).
ReplicationWiki Webinar
Project TIER co-directors Richard Ball and Norm Medeiros gave a presentation titled "Ex Post Replication and Ex Ante Documentation: Two Sides of a Coin." This webinar was one of a series that was organized by the ReplicationWiki, in collaboration with the Young Scholars Initiative of the Institute for New Economic Thinking and Project TIER.

CURE-TIER Curating for Reproducibility Workshop
The CURE-TIER Workshop was designed for librarians, archivists, and information professionals who are interested in integrating principles of transparency and reproducibility into data curation activities. Participants were introduced to opportunities to collaborate with Project TIER in the development and dissemination of curricular resources for practicing and teaching transparent research methods, and with CURE on sharing practices and developing standards for curating for reproducibility. The ultimate goal was to foster the development of a community of educators and information professionals committed to the idea that transparency and reproducibility should be integrated into all aspects of research training and support in quantitative fields.
