Experiencing Research Reproducibility in a Playful Way: The LEGO® Awareness Game

How important are clear instructions and good documentation? Try it yourself!

In the LEGO® Awareness Game, you will build a small model—using only a written set of instructions. When compared with the original model, it quickly becomes clear: even small inaccuracies can lead to different results.

In a guided discussion, we connect this experience to research: How do data need to be described and organized so that others can understand and use them?

Join us, take part, and discover in a playful way why research data are so important for science and society!
