NoteInstructions

Select a proposition (A, B, C, etc.) for each framework. When you arere ready, click “Validate All” to see your results. While there may be overlap between them, each proposition corresponds to one main framework.

Frameworks to Match

Letter Proposition
A Persistent identifier assignment
B Code sharing practices
C Ethical data stewardship
D Developer-centric data accessibility
E Unrestricted access to scholarly publications
F Digital object interoperability
G Research transparency and reproducibility
TipHints
  • FLOSS: Think about what the “S” in this acronym stands for. Which proposition relates most directly to that?
  • LOUD: The “U” in this acronym is key — this framework is about making data not just open, but genuinely usable. Who is the primary target audience?
  • OA: This two-letter abbreviation is primarily associated with the academic and scholarly world. What type of output does it focus on making freely available?
  • FAIR: One of the four letters stands for “Findable”. What technical mechanism is essential for making data findable on the web?
  • Collections as Data: This framework reimagines cultural heritage collections as things that can be computed on. Think about what needs to happen for digital objects from different institutions to work together.
  • CARE: This framework emerged from Indigenous data governance discussions. Consider what its core values — Collective benefit, Authority to control, Responsibility, Ethics — prioritise above all.
  • Open Science: This is the broadest movement on the list, covering the entire research lifecycle. What are the fundamental goals it seeks to achieve in how research is conducted?
