Jeffrey Bye, instructor in the Department of Educational Psychology’s psychological foundations of education program and researcher in the Institute of Child Development, was accepted into and participated in the EMCL(Empirical Methods in Cognitive Linguistics)8: Open Science and Transparency Methods workshop in Tartu, Estonia over the summer.

Bye and other workshop attendees used open science practices to collaboratively design and pilot a novel experiment within one week. Each group’s project from this workshop will become a registered report.

Bye was subsequently named one of two junior members of the EMCL Oversight Committee, which is in charge of developing the long-term vision of the workshop series.
