The Turing Way Book Dash
Date: November 13th, 9.00 - 17.00
Three Thematic Digital Competence Centres (TDCCs) are joining forces to host a local Dutch hub for the upcoming Turing Way Book Dash.
The Turing Way is an open, community-led guide to reproducible, ethical and collaborative data-driven research. Twice a year, the community comes together in a “Book Dash” – a collaborative writing and co-creation event where contributors develop new chapters, edit and review existing ones, and help improve accessibility, usability, and inclusivity of the project.
A local hub makes it possible to join the global Book Dash together, in person. This is a great opportunity to:
- Contribute to an international, open-source community improving practices in research.
- Share your work though a well-known and well-cited resource and get acknowledged for your efforts
- Meet colleagues across the TDCCs and beyond who share an interest in open science and reproducibility.
- Take part in collaborative sessions and enjoying the energy of working side by side.
You don’t need to be a coding expert or an experienced GitHub user to join. The Book Dash welcomes a wide variety of contributions, including editing, writing, sharing case studies, improving accessibility, creating illustrations, or helping with communication.
Whether you’re new to The Turing Way or a returning contributor, this is a great opportunity to add your work to this international project while connecting with peers locally.
