Establishing a culture of research integrity with innovative educational methods

Inicio » EU News » Education and Culture » Culture » Establishing a culture of research integrity with innovative educational methods

18 de June de 2020

An interactive online tool supported by an EU-funded initiative is among the EUvsVirus Hackathon winners. It aims to familiarise citizens with genuine, reliable scientific information on COVID-19.

Misinformation, disinformation and the crumbling of trust in science had been affecting societies well before the COVID-19 pandemic. Addressing this issue, UNESCO had warned about “the contamination of the information environment and the spill-over effect of tarnishing of news more broadly,” in a journalism education and training handbook. In fact, efforts to rebuild strong public confidence in science and provide guidance on how to detect fake news have intensified lately.
Thanks to the EU-funded Path2Integrity project, a team of researchers has developed the tool that encourages users to become advocates for research integrity and to share the resources and their experiences through their social networks, as explained in the Trust in Science manual. Launched during the EUvsVirus Hackathon, the Trust in Science tool builds upon the research and efforts of the Path2Integrity project. The tool was one of the 117 winners of the EUvsVirus Hackathon.
As explained on the EUvsVirus Hackathon website, “2,164 multi-disciplinary, multi-nationality teams with innovative solutions” were created throughout the month of April for the hackathon to help in the fight against the coronavirus outbreak. Participants were asked to propose solutions for 37 challenges in the domains of health, business continuity, social and political cohesion, remote working and education, and digital finance. The Trust in Science tool was a challenge winner in the Social and Political Cohesion category. A news item by the European Commission’s Research Executive Agency states:
“The tool is inspired by the social distancing measures and is based on the Learning Cards developed by the Path2Integrity project, to teach youngsters the importance of integrity and ethics in research.”
