Strategies for Discussing and Communicating Data ServicesJoel Herndon
This document discusses strategies for libraries to provide research data services. It defines research data services and notes that while funder mandates are a driver, academics' focus is more on transparency and reproducibility. The document suggests libraries expand services to assist with publishing data and ensuring transparent workflows, such as consulting on data cleaning and documentation. It concludes that the academic focus on sharing quantitative data means further research is needed to scope qualitative and geospatial data services.
This document discusses classroom assessment techniques (CATs), which are simple, non-graded activities used to provide instructors feedback on student learning. It provides examples of CATs like the Muddiest Point and Minute Paper. The document emphasizes that CATs help instructors improve their teaching by gaining insights into student understanding. It also notes that CATs benefit students by encouraging self-assessment and engagement. Overall, the document promotes the use of CATs to enhance the teaching and learning process through frequent formative assessment.

High School Instructional Strategies Report 2009/2010Jason Zielinski
The document describes various instructional programs, strategies, and teacher professional development implemented at a school. Universal Design for Learning Strategies (UDL) and SWIFT reading strategies were implemented. Teacher professional development included training in UDL, reading apprenticeship, data analysis software, and content areas like math and science. Leadership opportunities for teachers included organizing field trips and committees. Assessment strategies incorporated classroom response systems, portfolios, and games.
Problem-based learning (PBL) is an instructional strategy where students learn through the experience of problem solving. It uses real world scenarios and relies on small collaborative groups guided by a facilitator. Students take responsibility for their own learning by identifying learning needs and researching the topics. The instructor guides the process without directly teaching, and scenarios are used to help students build skills like clinical reasoning. PBL has been shown to help students develop integrated knowledge and better acquire and retain information for fields like medicine that see rapid changes.

The document discusses communication with researchers at Maynooth University Library through two surveys - one for postgraduate researchers and one for academics. The surveys aimed to understand researchers' needs, awareness and use of library resources. The PGR survey found most use Google Scholar and JSTOR and want more writing and referencing support. Academics reported using resources for teaching and research but many don't recommend specific databases to PGRs. Both groups prefer email communication and want more subject-specific training, showing opportunities to improve outreach.
This document discusses embedded librarianship in academic health sciences programs. It provides examples of how librarians can be embedded by conducting online presentations, creating video tutorials, reviewing assignments, holding office hours in departments, and more. The benefits outlined include helping students retain information, developing research skills over time, and improving the quality of student work. Examples are given of librarians being embedded in nursing, occupational therapy, and clinical research administration courses through multiple instruction sessions that build students' information literacy skills incrementally. Feedback from students and faculty is positive overall regarding the benefits of embedded librarianship.
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles? Engaging Medical Students with Interactive, ...AmyStuder28
This document summarizes a presentation given by Nicole Capdarest-Arest and Amy Studer about integrating interactive, skills-based instruction into evidence-based practice training for medical students. They developed a session focused on developing students' skills in asking and acquiring medical evidence. The session used active learning techniques like individual and group activities, polls, and online submission of answers. Student feedback was positive and suggested the session was engaging and helped develop important skills, though students could still improve in areas like incorporating synonyms in searches. The presenters plan to build on this foundation by reinforcing skills throughout the curriculum.
The document summarizes the experiences of an EdD student through four perspectives - the practitioner, student, juggler, and researcher. It describes the practical questions that initially motivated the practitioner's research, the self-doubts of becoming a student again, the challenges of balancing personal and academic responsibilities as a juggler, and the outputs and future directions of the researcher following the EdD. Key stages and findings of the research projects are highlighted.

Using a Case Study to Teach Data Management to LibrariansSherry Lake
This document outlines the agenda and learning objectives for a workshop on research data management for libraries. The workshop uses a case study approach and hands-on activities to teach librarians best practices for data collection, organization, documentation, backup/storage, and sharing/preservation. The goal is to prepare librarians to teach researchers about data management and illustrate opportunities for library involvement in the area. Based on a survey after the workshop, most attendees felt their expectations were met or exceeded, and they found the hands-on case study activities and practical tips to be most useful.
This document provides information about quantitative research, including its characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, and types. It discusses how quantitative research uses objective measurements and statistical analysis of numerical data from sources like surveys and questionnaires. It also outlines the key parts of a research paper, including the problem statement, significance, scope, and references. The document is intended as a guide for learners to understand quantitative research methodology.
The document summarizes key points from a workshop on theories of learning and teaching, teaching philosophy, and reflective practice. It discusses theories like constructivism and learner-centeredness. It also covers topics like conceptions of teaching, active learning strategies, differentiation, and constructive alignment of learning outcomes, assessments, and content. The document provides an overview of the workshop's content to introduce participants to important concepts in teaching practice in higher education.
The document discusses using one-minute papers (OMPs) to assess student learning in library instruction sessions. It collected 342 OMP responses from 10 instruction sessions and analyzed them using Wolstenholme's categorization framework.
Results showed that reflective statements and those with further insight indicated deeper understanding compared to topic named responses. Analysis by course revealed which concepts resonated most. Reflective questions identified topics that challenged students' thinking and areas for instructional improvement.
The author proposes using OMP responses to extend learning beyond one-shot sessions. Responses could be addressed in follow-up emails providing clarification or additional material. Students' reflective questions present opportunities for individual consultations to further dialogue and engagement. Overall

Kristen Burgess, University of Cincinnati Health Sciences Library
The University of Cincinnati Libraries (UCL) are pursuing new roles and initiatives to better support research data services, including the creation of a robust research data management and curation training program.
Much of this change was initially prompted by the arrival of our new Dean who is pushing the libraries to dramatically alter our role and relationship with campus partners to meet the teaching, research, and healthcare missions of the university. As we’ve moved forward with these exciting initiatives, it’s clear that the broader campus is open to the libraries getting involved in data education and support. In this quick presentation, I’ll discuss a few of the areas where we’re focusing.
Physical Space developed for data consultation services and research-intensive computing.
Research Commons - Science & Engineering Libraries - Large scale visualization theatre, collaboration spaces, high end computing, Repurposing of existing space, Collaborative project with UCIT
Informatics Lab – Health Sciences Library - Collaboration & consultation spaces, High end computing
Digital Space – UCL is developing a next-generation, open access digital repository based on the Hydra framework with an eye toward support of data publishing and curation.
Goal is to help meet data intensive needs of researchers from across the institution
Collaborative project with UCIT, Office of Research, and colleges like our College of Design Art Architecture and Planning
Our Dean’s involvement with this project spurred the creation of a UCL software R&D unit
Flexible and module system based on the open source Hydra framework (Fedora)
Instruction & Workshops - In fall 2013, the Health Sciences Library developed a series of research workshops to explore faculty interest in integrated research topics, including a class on data management planning and another on data sets and statistics. Really well received and have continued offering intro DMP workshops across campus.
The HSL is also creating a course for the College of Medicine’s new Medical Sciences major called Informatics and Data for the 21st Century Medical Professional. This curriculum will have an entire data management module focused on data management skills in the medical sciences.
To enhance our initial work on data management support, the health sciences library has also joined the New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum pilot with plans to implement several of the modules in a variety of settings (standalone workshops, lab groups, etc.).
Initial pilot workshops for our library liaisons just finished last week. We piloted 4 modules – 2 classes per week for 2 weeks. Modules: (1) Overview of RDM, (2) Types, Formats, and Stages of Data, (3) Data Storage, Backup, and Security, (4) Legal and Ethical Considerations for Research Data. Notice a neat aspect of the pilot is each module includes an initial reading, PPT, case activities, and not shown here but a whole list of data specific case studies that can be used in the workshops.
Class went over really well. We had 15 consistent library attendees for all 4 sessions that all gave fantastic feedback for us to use as we tweak the modules for future workshops. Favorite activities included the hands on nature of the exercises as well as the use of cases.
We asked people a number of different questions about how well the modules prepared them to explain different aspects of research data management and as you can see an overall majority answered 4s (well) and 5s (very well) versus 3 (neutral and below)
These are just 4 select questions from much longer surveys for each module to highlight the general positive reaction. We plan to publish more about this in the Journal of eScience Librarianship later this year.
The great thing was that while we used the STEM-focused cases provided by the pilot project, the cases and overall pilot worked really well across all our librarian backgrounds (only 3 attendees are STEM focused librarians – the rest are humanities). One piece of advice for the collaborative is to create some more social science/humanities focused data cases.
While majority of participants told me verbally this is all really new to them, a pre-test would be a great addition to the curriculum.

Plan to implement several modules of New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum in a variety of settings in spring 2014.
Additional instruction sessions will be held for specific lab groups on data management specific to their setting, and broader instruction to health sciences undergraduate and graduate students. New topics include metadata, sharing & reuse, archiving & preservation in addition to the 4 modules already piloted.
