MERE 2020: Meta Research Conference
(2021-01) Hernández Leo, Davinia; Michos, Konstantinos
This document collects a selection of papers written by master’s students in the context of the “Research Methods” course common to the Master’s Programmes in Sound and Music Computing, Intelligent and Interactive Systems, Computational Biomedical Engineering, of the Information and Communication Technology Department at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, during the 2020-2021 academic year. The papers were written as part of an integrative assignment entitled “Meta- Research”, where students were expected to do a small piece of research about a transversal research topic. Students worked in teams and selected a topic, among those suggested in Table 1. A refinement of the topic, the particular research questions to study and the methodology to apply were proposed by the students and discussed with the course educators in tutoring sessions. A total of 22 papers were written by the students and presented in the classroom. Assessment included peerreview by students through a conference management program. The papers were revised by the authors considering the peer-review feedback and presented in a simulated scientific conference. Papers tackle the following topics: ethical principles and values, research integrity, open science, writing and presenting research.

The papers were written as part of an integrative assignment entitled “Meta-Research”, where students were expected to do a small piece of research about a transversal research topic. Students worked in teams and selected a topic, among the following suggested themes: Open Science, Social Impact of Science and Technology, Research-Industry Collaboration and PhD Process and Life. A refinement of the topic, the particular research questions to study and the methodology to apply were proposed by the students and discussed with the course educators in tutoring sessions. A total of 14 papers were written by the students and presented in the classroom. Assessment included peer-review by students during the presentations, through a conference management program, assessment by the educators, and self-assessment. The results from the peer-review were considered to recognize two of the papers with “Best Paper Awards”. These papers can be read in pages 29 and 109.
Meta-Research 2017

This document collects a selection of papers written by master’s students in the context of the “Research Methods” course common to the Master’s Programmes in Sound and Music Computing, Intelligent and Interactive Systems, Computational Biomedical Engineering and Wireless Communications, of the Information and Communication Technology Department at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, during the 2017-2018 academic year. The papers were written as part of an integrative assignment entitled “Meta-Research”, where students were expected to do a small piece of research about a transversal research topic. Students worked in teams and selected a topic, among those suggested in Table 1. A refinement of the topic, the particular research questions to study and the methodology to apply were proposed by the students and discussed with the course educators in tutoring sessions. A total of 15 papers were written by the students and presented in the classroom. Assessment included peer-review by students during the presentations and through a conference management program, assessment by the educators, and self-assessment. The results from the self-assessment were especially considered in the selection of the papers to include in this open document. Selected papers tackle among others interdisciplinarity in research, the influence of gender in science, open science and research-industry collaboration.
