In the 21st Century, research is increasingly data- and computation-driven. Researchers, funders, and the larger community today emphasize the traits of openness and reproducibility. In March 2017, 13 mostly early-career research leaders who are building their careers around these traits came together with ten university leaders (presidents, vice presidents, and vice provosts), representatives from four funding agencies, and eleven organizers and other stakeholders in an NIH- and NSF-funded one-day, invitation-only workshop titled "Imagining Tomorrow's University." Workshop attendees were charged with launching a new dialog around open research - the current status, opportunities for advancement, and challenges that limit sharing. The workshop examined how the internet-enabled research world has changed, and how universities need to change to adapt commensurately, aiming to understand how universities can and should make themselves competitive and attract the best students, staff, and faculty in this new world. During the workshop, the participants re-imagined scholarship, education, and institutions for an open, networked era, to uncover new opportunities for universities to create value and serve society. They expressed the results of these deliberations as a set of 22 principles of tomorrow's university across six areas: credit and attribution, communities, outreach and engagement, education, preservation and reproducibility, and technologies. Activities that follow on from workshop results take one of three forms. First, since the workshop, a number of workshop authors have further developed and published their white papers to make their reflections and recommendations more concrete. These authors are also conducting efforts to implement these ideas, and to make changes in the university system. Second, we plan to organise a follow-up workshop that focuses on how these principles could be implemented. Third, we believe that the outcomes of this workshop support and are connected with recent theoretical work on the position and future of open knowledge institutions.
在21世纪,研究越来越由数据和计算驱动。如今,研究人员、资助者以及更广泛的群体都强调开放性和可重复性的特点。2017年3月,13位主要处于职业生涯早期、围绕这些特点开展研究工作的研究带头人,与10位大学领导(校长、副校长和副教务长)、4个资助机构的代表、11位组织者以及其他利益相关者齐聚一堂,参加了由美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)和美国国家科学基金会(NSF)资助的、为期一天的、仅限受邀者参加的研讨会,名为“畅想明日之大学”。研讨会的参与者肩负着开启一场关于开放研究的新对话的使命——探讨其现状、发展机遇以及限制共享的挑战。该研讨会审视了互联网推动下的研究世界发生了怎样的变化,以及大学需要如何相应地变革以适应这种变化,旨在了解大学如何能够且应该使自身具有竞争力,并在这个新世界中吸引最优秀的学生、员工和教师。在研讨会上,参与者们为开放的网络时代重新构想了学术、教育和机构,以发掘大学创造价值和服务社会的新机遇。他们将这些讨论的结果表述为一套涵盖六个领域的明日大学的22条原则:信用与归属、社区、推广与参与、教育、保存与可重复性以及技术。基于研讨会结果开展的后续活动采取以下三种形式之一。首先,自研讨会召开以来,一些参与撰写报告的人员进一步完善并发表了他们的白皮书,以使他们的思考和建议更加具体。这些作者还在努力落实这些想法,并推动大学体系的变革。其次,我们计划组织一次后续研讨会,重点关注如何实施这些原则。第三,我们认为本次研讨会的成果支持并与近期关于开放知识机构的地位和未来的理论工作相关联。
