Result description
The methodology is based on the backward instructional process, extended with additional activities focused on the implementation of the FAIR principles. The document includes a discussion on granularity, scope, metadata schema, interoperability and publication in relevant repositories, together with a step-by-step six-stage workflow and checklist. The methodology will be used as blueprint for a train-the-trainer course aimed to present the practical FAIR-by-design instructional design
Problem addressed
Existing training material is fragmented and generally not FAIR-compliant, with no information on target group, length/duration, key messages, learning objectives, or documentation to ensure re-usability. By creating FAIR material, trainers (especially those who did not participate in the “train the trainers” sessions) will be able to use it as they see fit, adapting the material as needed by e.g. merging or restructuring. Proper documentation will allow the material to be reused in any field.
