The Value of Open Scientific Information: A Student Learning Module

This module brings together related and complementary components of open science, information literacy, and open pedagogy. It can be used as a standalone module within an undergraduate course to introduce students to the information literacy concept “Information has value” in the context of open science and to engage students in production of an open pedagogy project to communicate the value of open scientific knowledge to another audience. Alternatively, parts of the module can be adopted to support other lessons.
