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 the benefits of data sharing. Furthermore, data sharing is usually not a part of formal training, so many researchers may be unaware 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 data can be shared, provide a step by step guide to start sharing data, and responses to common concerns.
