Freely sharing materials can help both researchers (they don't have to create their own materials from scratch) and practitioners (they can use research-validated materials in their class). Read this paper to learn more about sharing your materials effectively and legally.

The article covers issues such as legal considerations for copyright and intellectual property, licensing materials you create so that you retain copyright even if materials are included in a publication, and how to attribute shared materials.

This is the 3rd paper in our special series on open-science practices (previous publications provide guidance on sharing data and open-access publishing), with more to come. Like all publications in RiSE, this article is free to access without any charges to authors.

Like all articles published in Research in Special Education (RiSE), the article is freely accessible to everyone at no cost to authors.

Lindström and colleagues describe different models of OA publishing and provide concrete guidelines for making one's publications open without violating copyright, with a particular focus on self-archiving, which involves no cost to authors.

We are especially pleased that the journal’s first empirical publication earned all three open-science badges! The study is pre-registered and materials and data are shared openly.

Like all RiSE publications, this article is openly accessible at no cost to authors.

Lindsey Mirielli and colleagues analyze higher education position announcements in special education using their paired open database (POD), which they (a) made open as they developed it to inform job seekers and (b) now make open for research purposes.

We encourage authors to apply these recommendations and share data whenever ethically possible. Articles that share data in RiSE get recognized with an electronic badge.

In this lead paper of our inaugural special series on open practices, @cmwhite.bsky.social , Estrera, Hart, & Schatsneider provide expert guidance and a ton of great resources for researchers interested in data sharing, which facilitates transparency and democratization of research.

Please consider participating in RiSE and other fully open journals in the field by serving as a reviewer, submitting papers, and sharing the open articles with interested parties.
