Subject: [Aisa.circuli] DFG cambia passo sul research assessment
Buongiorno,

pochi giorni fa il DFG ha annunciato nuovi modelli per le proposte di
progetto e per come presentare il CV.
Il tutto nell'ottica di dare un impulso al cambiamento del research
assessment.
Noto come DFG dichiari la propria forte responsabilita' come research
funder, nell' ampliare il range dei formati (includendo preprints, data
sets e software) che contano ai fini del research assessment e di
promuovere una valutazione qualitativa e piu' olistica.
Buona lettura,

Un estratto:
*DFG changes proposal forms and introduces mandatory CV template *

*Binding CV template across all funding programmesFor this reason, the
assessment of a researcher’s accomplishments must be holistic and based on
substantive qualitative criteria. In order to strengthen qualitative
evaluation criteria over quantitative indicators, the DFG will be
introducing a curriculum vitae template that will be mandatory across all
programmes from 1 March 2023 (the template will be adapted shortly for
proposals under the Collaborative Research Centre and Research Training
Group programmes; information will be provided separately in this regard).
The template adopted by the DFG Senate allows applicants to provide both
narrative and tabular information, thereby facilitating a holistic view of
the applicant’s academic career in the review and evaluation process.In
addition to the mandatory information required in order to assess
eligibility, applicants may also provide details of special circumstances
or additional services to scholarship such as committee activities or the
establishment of research infrastructures. As such, the template provides
the basis for a qualitatively sound assessment of academic performance that
takes greater account of the respective stage of the individual’s life and
career. Accordingly, reviewers are now instructed to consider applicants’
academic performance in the context of their individual curriculum vitae
and career stage.Publication details in proposals and CVsPerformance
assessment based on content-related qualitative criteria also explicitly
includes ensuring that the entire spectrum of academic publication types
are equally displayed and acknowledged in funding proposals and CVs. In
addition to a maximum of ten publications in the more common publication
formats, the CV can therefore now list up to ten further sets of research
outcomes and findings that have been publicised in a variety of other ways,
including articles on preprint servers, data sets or software packages, for
example. *
