Call Deadline: 31-Mar-2019 

Meeting Description:

Purpose: 

The goal of EMCL is to provide research methods training in a hands-on,
collaborative setting to researchers from different methodological
backgrounds, i.e. psychologists, theorists, experimentalists, linguists, etc.
We do this by creating an environment where specialists learn from each other
by developing a research project together where their various skills are
combined.

Current focus:

This year’s workshop will focus on Open Science and Transparency Methods in
language research, broadly construed. Participants will learn how to
incorporate open science practice and research transparency into their
workflow with a focus on the preparation of a Registered Report.
Intended audience: Researchers who study language and whose work is influenced
by language. The theoretical foundations of the workshop are embodiment,
situated cognition and cognitive linguistics although we welcome all other
theoretical groundings. No prior experimental or corpus training is required.
Participants can be at different early stages in their careers, i.e. graduate
students/post-grads, post-docs, junior faculty, etc.

Reasons to attend EMCL8 Open Science & Transparency Methods workshop

1. Learn to integrate Open Science into your workflow. What is Open Science?
See here: https://bit.ly/2lJEnTO
2. Learn to write a Registered Report!
What is a Registered Report? In a nutshell, a paper describing your research
plan that is reviewed before you collect the data. This makes it possible to
correct design errors before precious resources have been used. Many journals
have started to adopt them, at least 164: https://bit.ly/2IBpkvS 
Read more about Registered Reports here: https://bit.ly/2Nvg2QF
3. The general structure is mini-labs supported by external experts. A maximum
of 45 students will be accepted, making the student/teacher ratio less than
3:1
4. Teachers are top caliber, diverse & international: 8 women 5 men.

5. Learning occurs in a hands-on setting, focused on working together as a
team in a mini-lab format (5 mini-labs total; 45 participants admitted). This
means that your team will have 2 experienced researchers and a select group of
8-9 junior researchers. Together over the course of a week, you will agree on
a research question, a method to address your question, gather data, analyze
it, interpret it, and present it at a mini-conference. It's all learning by
doing!

6. Learn to keep an open lab notebook. https://bit.ly/2IKTQUi
7. You'll also help create a special journal issue focused on walking
researchers through the steps of doing open science, from idea to open
notebook to registered report.
8. Our application process is anonymous. Everyone will be assessed strictly
and only by their professional attributes. Selectors won't even know your name
until after selection.
9. Cheap! Tuition is free & travel to Estonia is cheap (+/- 200 Euros within
Europe in Summer!)
10. EMCL8 is scheduled to end before SIPS
(http://improvingpsych.org/meetings/) Join the caravan from Tartu to
Rotterdam!

11. Greenscience event: Bring your own cups! https://bit.ly/2GKl1wq

12. We take participant safety seriously. See our Code of Conduct:

13. We welcome differently-abled participants. https://bit.ly/2GLkoCW
