#iassist40 presentation, Toronto, 6/6/2014.
Abstract:
Edinburgh DataShare, an institutional data repository, is six years old. It was built as a demonstrator in DSpace by EDINA and Data Library and has been given new life by the University of Edinburgh’s Research Data Management initiative. Following testing by pilot users in various departments last year, DataShare is confirmed as a key RDM service. Since 2008 much external infrastructure has grown around data sharing, and software developers, publishers and librarians are creating new innovations around the sharing and re-use of data daily. How can DataShare be shaped to fit in to this ever-more-sophisticated environment? A number of ongoing developments are helping us integrate the repository in the global context. DataShare is being indexed in Thomson-Reuter’s Data Citation Index. We aspire to attain the Data Seal of Approval for DataShare, a badge that confers trustworthiness through peer review. It is listed in re3data.org and databib registries of data repositories. We offer via extension, peer review of datasets to our depositors by listing journals that publish ‘data papers’ such as F1000 Research. Locally, as Information Services builds new data services such as the Data Store, [private data] Vault and the [metadata-only] Register, we can focus DataShare on its named purpose.

Next-Generation Search Engines for Information RetrievalWaqas Tariq
In the recent years, there have been significant advancements in the areas of scientific data management and retrieval techniques, particularly in terms of standards and protocols for archiving data and metadata. Scientific data is generally rich, not easy to understand, and spread across different places. In order to integrate these pieces together, a data archive and associated metadata should be generated. This data should be stored in a format that can be locatable, retrievable and understandable, more importantly it should be in a form that will continue to be accessible as technology changes, such as XML. New search technologies are being implemented around these protocols, which makes searching easy, fast and yet robust. One such system, Mercury, a metadata harvesting, data discovery, and access system, built for researchers to search to, share and obtain spatiotemporal data used across a range of climate and ecological sciences.
Urm concept for sharing information inside of communitiesKarel Charvat
The paper describe concept for Sharing Information Inside Communities - Uniform Resource Management (URM), which support validation, discovery and access to heterogeneous information and knowledge. It is based on utilisation of metadata schemes. The URM models currently also integrate different tools, which support sharing of knowledge. The URM concept was introduced by NaturNet Redime project as tool for managing of educational context and now is modified for general sharing of information inside of community in c@r project. The concept is now partly implemented as part of Czech metadata portal, Czech portal for United Nation Spatial Data infrastructure and it is also tested in Latvia by BOCS
OSFair2017 Workshop | EPOS: European Plate Observing SystemOpen Science Fair
Keith G Jeffery presents the European Plate Obserinv System (EPOS) | OSFair2017 Workshop
Workshop title: How FAIR friendly is your data catalogue?
Workshop overview:
This workshop will build upon the work planned by the EOSCpilot data interoperability task and the BlueBridge workshop held on April 3 at the RDA meeting. We will investigate common mechanisms for interoperation of data catalogues that preserve established community standards, norms and resources, while simplifying the process of being/becoming FAIR. Can we have a simple interoperability architecture based on a common set of metadata types? What are the minimum metadata requirements to expose FAIR data to EOSC services and EOSC users?

Data accessibility and the role of informatics in predicting the biosphereAlex Hardisty
The variety, distinctiveness and complexity of life – biodiversity in other words and by implication the ecosystems in which it is situated – is our life support system. It is absolutely essential and more important than almost everything else but it is typically taken for granted. Today’s big societal challenges – food and water security, coping with environmental change and aspects of human health – are beyond the abilities of any one individual or research group to solve. Solving them depends not only on collaboration to deliver the appropriate scientific evidence but increasingly on vast amounts of data from multiple sources (environmental, taxonomic, genomic and ecological) gathered by manual observation and automated sensors, digitisation, remote sensing, and genetic sequencing. In April 2012 we called the biodiversity and ecosystems research communities to arms to formulate a consensus view on establishing an infrastructure to improve the accessibility of the ever-increasing volumes of biological data. We published the whitepaper: “A decadal view of biodiversity informatics: challenges and priorities” that has since been viewed more than 24,000 times. We envisage a shared and maintained multi-purpose network of computationally-based processing services sitting on top of an open data domain. By open data domain we mean data that is accessible i.e., published, registered and linked. BioVeL, pro-iBiosphere, ViBRANT and other FP7 funded projects have all explored aspects of this vision.
INSPIRE Data Specification - Utility and Governamental Services v3.0Maksim Sestic
The INSPIRE Directive came into force on 15 May 2007 and will be implemented in various stages, with full implementation required by 2019. It aims to create a spatial data infrastructure which enables the sharing of spatial information among public sector organisations and facilitates public access to spatial information across Europe.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
