This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons/Melbourne Genomics webinar ‘Effective, inclusive, and scalable training in the life sciences, clinical education and beyond’. This webinar took place on 4 November 2022.
Event description
Scientists and educators working in the life sciences must continuously acquire new knowledge and skills to stay up-to-date with the latest methods, technologies and research. Short-format training, such as webinars, workshops and bootcamps, are popular ways of quickly learning about new topics and gaining new skills.
As trainers and educators, how can we ensure that short-format training is effective and inclusive for all? How can we ensure that our learners are equipped to continue learning and applying their new skills once they return to their day jobs? And how can we do this in a way that is scalable and sustainable?
The Bicycle Principles assemble education theory and community experience into a framework for improving short-format training so that it is effective, inclusive and scalable. Over 30 international experts, including colleagues from the Australian BioCommons, Melbourne Genomics and other Australian and New Zealand organisations, helped develop the principles and an associated set of recommendations.
Jason Williams, Assistant Director, DNA Learning Center, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory - a leading genomics and bioinformatics educator and project lead, joins us to discuss the Principles and how they can be applied to achieve scalable and sustainable training in a range of Australian settings.
This webinar is co-hosted by Australian BioCommons and Melbourne Genomics

Keynote Presentation for the ARDC Skills Summit 2023
This keynote presentation provides a brief outline of Jason William’s experience and an overview of the training initiatives he has been involved in. His presentation looks at what makes a good researcher and provokes thinking about modern researchers and the need for them to get serious bout career-spanning training. Jason also provides an overview of the Bike Principles and focuses on the first Bike Principles recommendation - Professionalize the training of short-format training instructors and instructional designers.

CheckEM is an open-source web based application which provides quality control assessments on metadata and image annotations of fish stereo-imagery. It is available at marine-ecology.shinyapps.io/CheckEM. The application can assess a range of sampling methods and annotation data formats for common inaccuracies made whilst annotating stereo imagery. CheckEM creates interactive plots and tables in a graphical interface, and provides summarised data and a report of potential errors to download.

Stereo-video workflows for fish and benthic ecologists

Stereo imagery is widely used by research institutions and management bodies around the world as a cost-effective and non-destructive method to research and monitor fish and habitats (Whitmarsh, Fairweather and Huveneers, 2017). Stereo-video can provide accurate and precise size and range measurements and can be used to study spatial and temporal patterns in fish assemblages (McLean et al., 2016), habitat composition and complexity (Collins et al., 2017), behaviour (Goetze et al., 2017), responses to anthropogenic pressures (Bosch et al., 2022) and the recovery and growth of benthic fauna (Langlois et al. 2020). It is important that users of stereo-video collect, annotate, quality control and store their data in a consistent manner, to ensure data produced is of the highest quality possible and to enable large scale collaborations. Here we collate existing best practices and propose new tools to equip ecologists to ensure that all aspects of the stereo-video workflow are performed in a consistent way.
