Many research agencies are now requiring that data collected as part of funded projects be shared. However, the practice of data sharing in education sciences has lagged these funder requirements. We assert that this is likely because researchers generally have not been made aware of these requirements and of the benefits of data sharing. Furthermore, data sharing is usually not a part of formal training, so many researchers may be unaware of how to properly share their data. Finally, the research culture in education science is often filled with concerns regarding the sharing of data. In this article, we address each of these areas, discussing the wide range of benefits of data sharing, the many ways by which data can be shared; provide a step by step guide to start sharing data; and respond to common concerns.

现在，许多研究机构都要求共享作为资助项目一部分而收集的数据。但是，教育科学中数据共享的实践落后于这些资助者的要求。我们认为，这可能是因为研究人员通常尚未意识到这些要求以及数据共享的好处。此外，数据共享通常不是正式培训的一部分，因此许多研究人员可能不知道如何正确共享其数据。最后，教育科学中的研究文化常常充满着关于数据共享的担忧。在本文中，我们将探讨这些领域中的每一个领域，并讨论数据共享的广泛好处以及可以共享数据的多种方式。提供逐步指南以开始共享数据；并回应共同的关注。
