I've put up a pull request to add @GeorgiaHCA! 🎉 |
I'm working on the chapter outline here: |
I've gone through the outline for the Turing Way Chapter and have the following takeaways and questions which it would be great to resolve to help me move forward. Subject to that, I am confident that I can get the vast majority of the writing done over the next week or so (fingers crossed!). Format: Do you regard this as a full chapter of the document (in the same way as the section on 'Guide for Collaboration' contains the overarching topic and then individual sub-chapters on issues such as 'Getting Started on Git Hub' and 'Collaborating on Git Hub' )? Is that something we want to replicate here, so we start-off with a short-intro, and then dive into individual chapters, for example 'why should I use participatory techniques?' Formatting: Regarding formatting, I'm guessing it looks fairly flexible/linear (a bit like Hack MD), so I'm guessing their isn't too much scope to keep it jazzy; is there any scope to put in flow-charts etc? Language/Tone: Most of the Turing Way is fairly high-level and too the point rather than an academic piece; I therefore intend to keep things quite short, with light and breezy language and quite listy where possible, agreed? Facts: On the why use participatory techniques section, it would be great if we could include data demonstrating the quantifiable benefits of Par Sci; do you have any to hand any know relevant case studies? Chapters on participatory science/citizen science and open-source: Those are the two chapters I'm least -up-to-speed with, it would be good to run through those to ensure we have a shared sense of what we have and where the info can be found if we both have time? I also wonder whether the section on challenges to go in this part as there may be duplication. On the Autistica/Citizen Science case study, was your intention to integrate this into the chapter on participatory science above, it looks to me to be a good fit. On that chapter, the position paper is a great starting point but have you got any more recent documents/slide packs that it would be possible to share on project values, how its been built, challenges etc (basically the stuff its presented on). Anywayz, it looks a long list but I'm confident I can wrap this up fairly quickly and painlessly. If you given me direction on what to look for then I'm happy to get on with the research myself. |
Detailed description
This issue is to discuss a proposed chapter on participatory research practises. This could be a chapter on its own, a subheading of the ethics section, or could also fit into project design or collaboration potentially. It spans a lot of themes!
There are lots of things participatory science can be, but broadly it means involving the people who will be most affected by research in the research process itself. Done well, this can have huge benefits for researchers and participants.
