Formosa Plastics publishes a quarterly newspaper called 親親報報 Qin Qin bao (engl. kiss kiss hug). A group of citizen journalists by the Taiwan Environmental Information Center and the initative FPCC Go Away have criticized the newspaper for different attempts of greenwashing (Wu 2015). The newspaper issues include arguments guaranteeing the safety of the 6th Napthha cracker's emissions, interrogrations of research about high PM 2.5 levels in the county and statements about supposed local population growth.

A 2012 blog entry by FPCC Go Away analysis the distribution and publication practices of the newspaper. Notably, the authors point out that an issue of the newspaper addressing PM 2.5 levels was re-published and distributed in the days leading up to a public speech by Prof. Zhan Chang-quan (Department of Public Health at National Taiwan University) who had studied air pollution in the county.

1. In the different instances of PECE (D-STS/TAF/etc.) are the artifacts/essays you have created in once instance available to cite/share in another? For example, how would you link an essay built for VTP into a TAF-California essay?

2. How to navigate the various levels of restriction remains unclear to me. For example, if I want to share and build an essay with a research partner but the project is not ready for prime time, how do I set restrictions to share work in progress? Is there a way for me to do a quality control tests to see how an essay looks to not-me participants.

3. I want to use PECE to build an annotated bibliography that typically addresses Traweek's 5 key aspects of a reading. Importing the citation to zotero is easy, and typically I would add notes to the zotero file, but if I want a more uniform notetaking and accessible bibliography PECE seems to be a better fit. For any given project how should I go about building a PECE essay that would be consistently allow new citations to be added along with ongoing and layered/laminated annotations?

Expectations of data management

Most of my experience is not with funders but with IRB. In multiple IRB applications I have had to assert that data will not be shared and in fact will be stored on a hard drive that is not connected to the internet in a locked environment to protect the privacy of research participants. This may be because much of my research to date has involved minors in and outside classroom learning environments. However even on team projects where sharing data is assumed, we have has to assert that data will be stored offline except during short periods when using a qualitative analytic program like Dedoose.

This is very hard to say upfront. I'm not an advocate for saving data for the sake of it.

Understanding and having the option to have some data open and some data restricted ongoing. The button at the bottom of the Annotate tool is helpful in this respect.
