They range from up-and-coming researchers and practitioners to world-leading experts.&nbsp;&nbsp;The students they teach come from a wide variety of backgrounds: research, funding, administration, publishing, libraries, and information users. They range from absolute beginners to discipline leaders. They are eager to learn and represent an excellent source of potential collaborations!&nbsp; &nbsp;If you have ideas for a course that could help other members of the community navigate this new world, then we want to hear from you! New and returning instructors are welcome!<\/p>\n<h2>Course Description<\/h2>\n<p>FSCI has two types of course.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Morning courses (13-14 hours each), run Monday &#8211; Friday approximately 09:00 &#8211; 12:30 with a coffee break each day<\/li>\n<li>Afternoon courses (6 hours each) run for three hours after lunch on Monday\/Tuesday and on Wednesday\/Thursday. (In response to feedback from FSCI 2017, afternoon course instructors will run their classes twice to maximise availability).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Morning courses tend to contain more fundamental material or focus on broader areas of study. Examples from 2017 include &ldquo;Reproducibility in Theory and Practice&rdquo; and &ldquo;Inside Scholarly Communications Today&rdquo;.&nbsp;&nbsp;Afternoon courses tend to be a bit more specialised and sometimes more technical. These are excellent places for advanced topics.&nbsp;&nbsp;In all cases, we encourage instructors to design their material around a hands-on, workshop format. Student evaluations suggest that attendees want to try things out for themselves and are less patient with a lecture-centered approach.&nbsp;&nbsp;You can see some of the titles we had last year below.<br \/>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">How to Propose a Course<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">You can propose a course using our <\/span>Course Proposal Form. This form asks you for a title, instructor(s), and some background on you and your proposed topic. A programming committee will review course proposals with the goal of choosing the best combination of topics, skill-levels, and disciplinary focus.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">What Support Can I Expect?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">FSCI will provide basic technical support for instructors. If you have specialised needs, we will do our best to arrange additional support. In addition, FSCI will provide complimentary tuition fees, housing, and meals for 1 instructor per course. We are currently unable to provide reimbursement for travel costs to and from San Diego, though we are seeking funding. &nbsp;We hope to be able to secure some funding with a focus on providing support to instructors from Low and Mid Income Economies. Additional information about travel support will be posted as it becomes available.&nbsp; If you do require travel funding to participate in FSCI, please indicate this on the submission form.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Sample Courses from Previous Years<\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Altmetrics: Where Are We Now and Where Are We Headed Next?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Applying Design Thinking and User Research to the Scholarly Communication Problem Space<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">AuthorCarpentry: A Hands-on Approach to Open Authorship and Publishing<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Building Public Participation in Research<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Communication and Advocacy for Research Transparency<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Data Citation Implementation for Data Repositories<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Data in the Scholarly Communications Life Cycle<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">How Universities Can Create an Open Access Culture<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Identifying How Scientific Papers Are Shared and Who Is Sharing Them on Twitter<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Inside Scholarly Communications Today<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Open Annotation Tools and Techniques<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Open Humanities 101<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Opening the Sandbox: Supporting Student Research as a Gateway to Open Practice<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Opening Up Research and Data<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Perspectives on Peer Review<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Research Reproducibillity in Theory and Practice<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Scholarship in the 21th Century Building an Open and Information-rich Research Institute<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Software Citation: Principles, Usage, Benefits, and Challenges<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Starting Out: Skills and Tools for Early Career Knowledge Workers<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Technology and Tools for Academic Library Teams<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">The Sci-AI Platform: Enabling Literature-Based Discovery<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Tips, Tools, and Tactics for Managing Digital Projects in Research and in the Classroom<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Using New Metrics: A Practical Guide to Increasing the Impact of Research<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Using the Open Science Framework To Increase Openness and Reproducibility in Research<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Using Wikidata in Research and Curation<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">Walking the Line Between Advocacy and Activism in Scholarly Communication<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-fabcf907-6bfd-c4c0-30cd-97dae399be6f\">When &#039;Global&#039;
