DS: MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) - Academic Integrity & Ethics in Practice

In previous learning units, you saw that responsible conduct in research required a number of different skills. One reason for this is that scientific research has become a “team sport”.

Team work, interdisciplinary research or cooperation are highly appreciated in academic work. Students should be able to collaborate with others.

This unit focuses on team work and communication skills. You can expect hands-on group assignments.

You will experience what it is like to work with colleagues who may be differently focused than you, are used to different approach to work.

You will be divided into groups and work together on particular tasks. This will help you to reflect you team work skills. Your goal will be to find the topic of the article/paper in which you could connect your study fields and create its abstract.

Remember: this is a team work; the goal is to communicate and collaborate effectively so that what you create is really the result of the team work (everybody should contribute). But the division of roles on the team will be up to you.

In following activities you will find tasks and milestones which will lead you the goal.
