This webinar is intended for librarians, staff, and information professionals interested in improving usability for the DMPTool in their institution. This webinar will also help institutions begin to formalize which individuals or resources will be available to help researchers using the tool. This webinar will be most useful for users that need to customize the tool for their institution.

Data Information Literacy: Multiple Paths to a Single Goal
Research Data Access & Preservation Summit 2013
Baltimore, MD April 4, 2013 #rdap13
Information technology and resources are an integral and indispensable part of the contemporary academic enterprise. In particular, technological advances have nurtured a new paradigm of data-intensive research. However, far too much of this activity still takes place in silos, to the detriment of open scholarly inquiry, integrity, and advancement. To counteract this tendency, the University of California Curation Center (UC3) has been developing and deploying a comprehensive suite of curation services that facilitate widespread data management, preservation, publication, sharing, and reuse. Through these services UC3 is engaging with new communities of use: in addition to its traditional stakeholders in cultural heritage memory organizations, e.g., libraries, museums, and archives, the UC3 service suite is now attracting significant adoption by research projects, laboratories, and individual faculty researchers. This webinar will present an introduction to five specific services – DMPTool, DataUp, EZID, Merritt, Web Archiving Service (WAS) – applicable to data curation throughout the scholarly lifecycle, two recent initiatives in collaboration with UC campuses, UC Berkeley Research Hub and UC San Francisco DataShare, and the ways in which they encourage and promote new communities of practice and greater transparency in scholarly research.

Presented at LITA Forum 2013
Abstract: A goal of data curation activities is to enable discovery and reuse of valuable data sets. How well repositories facilitate these activities is difficult to measure with existing metrics. In this presentation we will discuss how to utilize usage statistics from DSpace (Apache SOLR) and Google Analytics to better understand how researchers discover, access, and use datasets archived in an institutional repository. Our focus will be on data analysis to explore the information seeking needs and behavior of data repository users. Ultimately, this analytic approach will inform the outreach, marketing, and impact evaluation of data repositories.

The goal of the Very Open Data Project is to provide a software-technical foundation for this exchange of data, more specifically to provide an open database platform for data from the raw data coming from experimental measurements or models through intermediate manipulations to finally published results. The sheer expanse of the amount data involved creates some unique software-technical challenges. One of these challenges is addressed in the part of the study presented here, namely to characterize scientific data (with the initial focus being detailed chemistry data from the combustion kinetic community), so that efficient searches can be made. A formalization of this characterization comes in the form of schemas of descriptions of tags and keywords describing data and ontologies describing the relationship between data types and the relationship between the characterizations themselves. These will be translated to meta-data tags connected to the data points within a non-relational data of data for the community.
The focus of the initial work will be on data and its accessibility. As the project progresses, the emphasis will shift on not only having available data accessible for the community, but that the community itself will be able to, with emphasis on minimal effort, will be able contribute their own data. This will involve, for example, the concepts of the ‘electronic lab notebook’ and the existence and availability of extensive concept extraction tools, primarily from the chemical informatics field.

International DMP workshop presentation, IDCC, Feb 2016Stephanie Simms
IDCC 2016 International Data Management Planning workshop presentation on the Smithsonian use case for the DMPTool, Amsterdam, Netherlands, 25 Feb 2016
In early 2014, we asked science and social science researchers...
• What expectations do the terms publication and peer review raise in reference to data?
• What features would be useful to evaluate the trustworthiness, evaluate the impact, and enhance the prestige of a data publication?
EZID makes it simple for researchers and others to obtain and manage long-term identifiers for their digital content. The service can create and resolve identifiers, and it also allows entry and maintenance of information about the identifier (metadata). This presentation was given as part of a webinar series.
This webinar will discuss the special needs of digital humanities researchers and help you learn how to talk them about their information management needs.
Topics that will be covered:
What is humanities data?
What special considerations are involved in creating DMPs for humanities data?
Where can you store humanities data?
What will humanities funding agencies be looking for? What regulations apply to humanities data (e.g., data sharing, data management, data availability)?
What librarians should know before meeting with a humanist; how humanists differ from other researchers in the way they think about their version of data.
Results of a survey conducted by the Manitoba Library Associations Working Group, March 2012. Prepared for the Manitoba Libraries Conference, May 16, 2012.
Software development should build on the successful work of others. The DMPTool helps researchers with data management planning, but what about other phases of the data life cycle? In this webinar, we will discuss what software integration with the DMPTool might look like, and why it is important. Topics include:
1. Background: why tools integration is important; why we are talking about this in terms of the DMPTool.
2. Details and plans for DMPTool2 regarding software integration and compatibility.
3. Future possibilities for software integration for DMPTool2
4. Example of successful integration of tools: work at the Center for Open Science.
Data “publication” attempts to appropriate for data the prestige of publication in the scholarly literature. While the scholarly communication community substantially endorses the idea, it hasn’t fully resolved what a data publication should look like or how data peer review should work. To contribute an important and neglected perspective on these issues, we surveyed ~250 researchers across the sciences and social sciences, asking what expectations “data publication” raises and what features would be useful to evaluate the trustworthiness and impact of a data publication and the contribution of its creator(s).
This slideshow was used in an Introduction to Research Data Management course taught for the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Division, University of Oxford, on 2014-02-26. It provides an overview of some key issues, looking at both day-to-day data management, and longer term issues, including sharing, and curation.

Similar to DMPTool Webinar 3: Customizing the DMPTool (20)
To facilitate data sharing from within the University of California system and beyond, the University of California Curation Center (UC3) is developing a new ingest and discovery layer for our data curation service, Dash. Dash uses the Merritt repository for preservation and a self-service overlay layer for submission and discovery of research datasets. The new overlay– dubbed Stash (STore And SHare)– will feature an enhanced user interface with a simple and intuitive deposit workflow, while still accommodating rich metadata. Stash will enable individual scholars to upload data through local file browse or drag-and-drop operation; describe data in terms of scientifically-meaning metadata, including methods, references, and geospatial information; identify datasets for persistent citation and retrieval; preserve and share data in an appropriate repository; and discover, retrieve, and reuse data through faceted search and browse. Stash can be implemented in conjunction with any standards-compliant repository that supports the SWORD protocol for deposit and the OAI-PMH protocol for metadata harvesting. Stash will feature native support for the DataCite or Dublin Core metadata schemas, but is designed to accommodate other schemas to support discipline-specific applications. By alleviating many of the barriers that have historically precluded wider adoption of open data principles, Stash empowers individual scholars to assert active curation control over their research outputs; encourages more widespread data preservation, publication, sharing, and reuse; and promotes open scholarly inquiry and advancement.
Although there is consensus that datasets should be treated like “first class” research objects in how they are discovered, cited, and recognized, this is still far from a reality. Datasets are poorly indexed by search engines, and they are rarely cited in formal reference lists. A solution that a number of journals are implementing is to publish discovery and citation proxy objects in the form of peer-reviewed “data papers.” A strength of this approach is that it requires dataset creators to write up rich and useful metadata for the paper, but an accompanying weakness is that busy creators are not always willing to invest the necessary time and energy. To enhance dataset discoverability without burdening creators, EZID (easy-eye-dee) will begin using dataset metadata to automatically generate lightweight, non-peer reviewed publications that will increase the exposure of the metadata to search engines. EZID (ezid.cdlib.org) maintains public DataCite metadata records for over 167,000 datasets, any of which could be viewed as HTML or as a dynamically generated PDF. In cases where the creator has submitted only the required DataCite metadata, the document will function as a cover-sheet or landing page. If the creator chooses to submit optional Abstract and Methods metadata (over 2,000 records already contain Abstracts), the document expands to more closely resemble a traditional journal article, while retaining the linking functionality of a landing page. A potential bonus is that providing an incrementally improved document in exchange for the effort of submitting incrementally improved metadata may encourage authors to submit more than the minimum required metadata.
The thorough integration of information technology and resources into scientific workflows has nurtured a new paradigm of data-intensive science. However, far too much research activity still takes place in silos, to the detriment of open scientific inquiry and advancement. Data-intensive science would be facilitated by more universal adoption of good data management practices ensuring the ongoing viability and usability of all legitimate research outputs, including data, and the encouragement of data publication and sharing for reuse. The centerpiece of such data sharing is the digital repository, acting as the foundation for external value-added services supporting and promoting effective data acquisition, publication, discovery, and dissemination. Since a general-purpose curation repository will not be able to offer the same level of specialized user experience provided by disciplinary tools and portals, a layered model built on a stable repository core is an appropriate division of labor, taking best advantage of the relative strengths of the concerned systems.
The Merritt repository, operated by the University of California Curation Center (UC3) at the California Digital Library (CDL), functions as a curation core for several data sharing initiatives, including the eScholarship open access publishing platform, the DataONE network, and the Open Context archaeological portal. This presentation with highlight two recent examples of external integration for purposes of research data sharing: DataShare, an open portal for biomedical data at UC, San Francisco; and Research Hub, an Alfresco-based content management system at UC, Berkeley. They both significantly extend Merritt’s coverage of the full research data lifecycle and workflows, both upstream, with augmented capabilities for data description, packaging, and deposit; and downstream, with enhanced domain-specific discovery. These efforts showcase the catalyzing effect that coupled integration of curation repositories and well-known public disciplinary search environments can have on research data sharing and scientific advancement.

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.
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.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

• Grant writers that take
DMP seriously have
greater chance of success
• Proposal panels getting
more guidance on how to
judge DMPs

18. Take Home Messages for Researchers
• Researchers may not
know how their library
can help
• Next grant cycle, get
them thinking about
this stuff earlier
• Researchers:You are
not alone!

28. Funder Documentation
• When users navigate
the DMPTool site, first
choice is grant funder
• We let you customize
individual funders
• So how does it work?
31. Submit
• Attach documents to
an email, and send it to:
• uc3@ucop.edu

32. Documentation - Suggestions
• Talk to your grant office
– Which funders are most
common?
• Talk to other librarians
– If you already have a
DMPTemplate, you’ve
done most of the work
• Talk to researchers
– How are they writing
them now?

Introduction/Beginning stuffCustomizing the DMPTool lets you guide users to the people at your university who understand this best
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Atencion2.gifWE KNOW - data management shouldn't be done "quick and dirty". It takes time. The DMPTool is a way to bring in researchers from your institution; you can then work with them during the planning and after the grant to implement good practices.
