Veel dank aan de makers voor het uitnodigen van een reflectieve dialoog over de rol van media in complexe conflicten.

#Medialogica #mediastudies #journalistiek #beeldvorming #democratie

Het vereist journalistieke moed om te vertragen, context te bieden en nuance te behouden – zeker als feiten en emoties door elkaar lopen, en de heersende elite luid roept.

In het gesprek heb ik benadrukt hoe oorlogsjournalistiek in situaties van (gewelddadige) chaos en onzekerheid snel kan polariseren: redacties voelen enorme druk om direct te rapporteren, wat vaak leidt tot simplificaties die democratische debatruimte ondermijnen.

Thanks, Elise! Happy to hear you learned a lot!

No, I've missed it! Looks great. Thanks for sharing. I'll have a closer look at it later this week.

Please do so! The FORTT materials were truly inspiring for creating this course, so always happy to support others as well.

I’ve uploaded everything to @cos.io, and you can also reach me at [email protected] if needed!

Btw: after a well-deserved long weekend, I’ll be sharing all course materials from the Open Science in the Social Sciences summer school @cos.io !

🎉 That’s a wrap!
Four days of deep dives into #OpenScience, #preregistration, #replication, #reproducibility, #multiverse, & more—applied to the social sciences.

Huge thanks to all participants for the energy, insights & thoughtful questions!

🗣️ Fourth and final stop: Open Peer Review

We debated:
✍️ Signed reviews
🧾 Public reports
💬 Community commenting
✅ Platforms like @pubpeer.com @F1000Research & @publons

#OpenPeerReview

🔐 Third stop: how open can your data be under GDPR?

Enter:
✅ FAIR principles
✅ Personal data, special categories of data
✅ Anonymization vs. Pseudonymization
✅ Consent, licensing, & DPO support

💻 Second stop: #rMarkdown

📝 YAML -> Code chunks -> text -> Knit!
🔁 We did various exercises to knit dynamic, reproducible reports (HTML, pdf, word)
🛠️ Bonus: it’s the perfect gateway to @quarto.org

🌌 First stop: Multiverse Analysis

We explored how analytic decisions shape results—and why reporting just one is like publishing from a parallel universe.

🔥 Big day ahead at the #OpenScience summer school!

On the menu:
💻 Making your research reproducible with @rmarkdown.bsky.social & @quarto.org
🔐 Balancing Open Science with Data Protection
🧐 What’s the deal with Open Peer Review?
🌐 A quick dive into Multiverse Analysis

We ended with a #pHackathon 🎯

Students were challenged to “find significance” in a fake dataset using researcher degrees of freedom 😅 shinyapps.org/apps/p-hacker/

Key lesson: flexibility isn't bad—but without transparency, it’s dangerous.

2️⃣ Smart data sharing: as open as possible, as closed as necessary!

3️⃣ Reproducible reporting with @rmarkdown.bsky.social n & @quarto.org

4️⃣ Built better replication packages with solid README files, transparent code, and full workflows. social-science-data-editors.github.io/template_REA...
