Project TIER

Project TIER promotes the incorporation of computationally reproducible research methods in undergraduate and graduate-level quantitative methods training. In addition to working with individual faculty members to introduce reproducible methods in their own classes and research advising, the goal now is to promote systemic change by fostering the development of a community of educators with similar goals and shared norms.

Project TIER has provided additional information on their vision for reproducibility and its challenges in the thread below. Please feel free to continue the conversation within the thread!

Briefly, tell us about your work/organization and how it’s related to computational reproducibility; What are you trying to address and how?

Project TIER promotes the incorporation of computationally reproducible research methods in undergraduate and graduate-level quantitative methods training.

What is your/your organization’s vision when it comes to computational reproducibility (e.g., all scholarship is computationally reproducible by default)?

Our vision is that it should be standard/ubiquitous to incorporate reproducible methods of data processing and analysis at all levels of the curriculum–from the first time students calculate group means or do a t-test through producing comprehensive reproduction documentation for doctoral dissertations.

What are some of the challenges you see to achieving this vision?

Project TIER’s greatest success has been working with individual faculty members to introduce reproducible methods in their own classes and research advising. Our goal now is to promote systemic change by fostering the development of a community of educators with similar goals and shared norms.

What would you like to ask the members of our Interest Group?

Who can Project TIER partner with to find ways to move from the model of working with individual instructors and find ways to facilitate collaboration across broader communities–departments, institutions, cross-institutional, or professional societies?
