Collaborate, Automate, Prepare, Prioritize: Creating Metadata for Legacy Rese...Jennifer Liss
Data curation projects frequently deal with data that were not created for the purposes of long- term preservation and re-use. How can curation of such legacy data be improved by supplying necessary metadata? In this report, we address this and other questions by creating robust metadata for twenty legacy research datasets. We report on the metrics of creating domain- specific metadata and propose a four-prong framework of metadata creation for legacy research data. Our findings indicate that there is a steep learning curve in encoding metadata using the FGDC content standard for digital geospatial metadata. Our project demonstrates that when data curators are handed research data “as is,” they may be successful in incorporating such data into a data sharing environment. We found that data curators can be successful in creating descriptive metadata and enhancing discoverability via subject analysis. However, curators must be aware of the limitations in applying structural and administrative metadata for legacy data.

Who owns the data? Intellectual property considerations for academic research...Rebekah Cummings
Intellectual property (IP) is often complicated but is even more so as it pertains to data, as “facts” are not eligible for copyright protection under United States copyright law. The IP issues surrounding data in academic research environments are often exacerbated by the fact that data ownership has rarely been discussed in university environments prior to NSF’s data management plan requirement in 2011. Researchers retained custody over their datasets and other stakeholders – namely universities and funding agencies – rarely contested ownership. Now, as datasets are increasingly seen as valuable outputs of research alongside publications, questions of data ownership are coming to the fore. This presentation will frame the complex issues surrounding data ownership in an academic research setting and will discuss strategies for educating and advising your researchers on intellectual property issues related to research data.

Research Data Management: An Introductory Webinar from OpenAIRE and EUDATTony Ross-Hellauer
OpenAIRE and EUDAT co-present this webinar which aims to introduce researchers and others to the concept of research data management (RDM). As well as presenting the benefits of taking an active approach to research data management – including increased speed and ease of access, efficiency (fund once, reuse many times), and improved quality and transparency of research – the webinar will advise on strategies for successful RDM, resources to help manage data effectively, choosing where to store and deposit data, the EC H2020 Open Data Pilot and the basics of data management, stewardship and archiving.

Managing research data is a hot topic in academic libraries. With increased government oversight of publicly-funded research projects, librarians must strive to meet the demand for innovative solutions for managing research information and training the new eneration of librarians to address this issue.

Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) - Making bathymetry data openly acc...Vicki Ferrini
The Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) synthesis is a multi-resolutional compilation of edited multibeam sonar data collected by scientists and institutions worldwide, merged into a single continuously updated compilation of global elevation data. The GMRT Synthesis, which began in 1992, brings together a variety of elevation sources, which are delivered as multi-resolutional images and grids of land and ocean elevations.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
