Hi Toby, At The University of Kansas, the Libraries developed two learning modules on basic data management techniques (file naming and directory structures). Both modules are aimed at undergraduates or anyone new to data management techniques. They include sample data, a lesson plan, videos, and slides. The premise of the modules is research on domestic dogs. The sample data includes pictures of the dogs, in part so we can focus on file naming for files with contents that can’t be searched textually, and in part so we can look at cute dog pictures. ☺ Both modules are licensed CC-BY-NC-SA and are available on the OSF: File Naming: https://osf.io/av4bk/ Directory Structures: https://osf.io/7tgsw/
Best, Jamene Jamene Brooks-Kieffer Data Services Librarian The University of Kansas 440 Watson Library 1425 Jayhawk Boulevard Lawrence, KS 66045 785-864-5238 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> From: Toby Hodges via discuss <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2018 3:28 AM To: discuss <[email protected]> Subject: [discuss] Data Management Training Material Hi folks, (Relevant to the two discussions we’ve had on here recently about versioning large datasets and tracing provenance.) We’ve been approached by someone at the EMBL library who would like to organise a workshop on Research Data Management and (Open) Publication for (computational) biologists. I wonder if anyone on this list has taught something like that before and, if so, if you have any materials that you’d be happy to share? I’m already familiar with the SWC Data Management lesson video here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MEJ38BO6Mo] and of course a lot of the DC material will be relevant as well. The workshop will need to be hands-on and cover data management over the lifetime of a project: while planning/applying for funding (data management plans); during the project (data organisation, preservation, etc); and openly publishing/archiving data & metadata. I’d be grateful or any and all resources and advice that you can share and recommend. Thanks, Toby ------------------------------------------ The Carpentries: discuss Permalink: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/Tafdc30751411bcaa-M6b990b42ff8cc277946bce58 Delivery options: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/subscription
