+# Research reproductibility MOOC - notes
+Followed this in *French* but my notes will be in *English* (feels more natural to me) 
+
+
+## Module 0 : Posons le décor
+Interesting interviews and history review on the need for research reproductibility. 
+I think that the main point is that, although reproductiblity can have *many* meanings and is different in every field of science,
+we now collectively strieve to make reproductible research. 
+
+Why ?
+- **Legitimacy = reproductibility now** Perhaps in past centuries, legitimacy of the research and truths uncovered came hand in hand with 
+- the legitimacy and reputation of scientists that made such discoveries, because there were few of them. Now, legitimacy is about consensus and there cannot
+- be consensus if _*others*_ cannot verify your assertions
+- **Transparency** A new movement of transparency in science also influences the need for reproductibility
+- **Pragmatism** My own point of view is that, for some research areas, if an experiment or a method is not reproductible then it's not useful
+
+## Module 1 : Cahier de notes, cahier de laboratoire
+I really enjoyed the historical overview of note taking and I found myself looking at Darwin's notebooks for hours.
