Meeting Agenda - Data Management Training - 2015-12-03 9:00am PT


Link to webex: https://esipfed.webex.com/mw0401lsp11/mywebex/default.do?siteurl=esipfed Passcode: 23138372

Telecon: 1-877-668-4493 Access Code: 23138372


Attendees: Nancy Hoebelheinrich, Shelley Stall, Shannon Rauch, Tamar Norkin, Justin Goldstein, Matt Mayernik, Bob Downs, Ruth Duerr, Amber Budden, Sophie Hou


Action Items:

  1. Nancy - Contact Matt Jones at NCEAS to confirm potential collaborations between the clearinghouse project and NCEAS’ project.
  2. Nancy - Contact Harry Furukawa at AGU regarding sharing of our efforts, those of DataONE (with Amber) and other ideas for training on data management (with Ruth & Sophie).
  3. Amber - Contact Tracy Teal at Software Carpentry to apprise her of our efforts and to see if what organization might have the capability to host an environment where scientists could learn how to manage data in a learning environment that would allow more realistic experiences.
  4. Nancy - Contact Erin for the same information as above (in #3).
  5. Bob - Find out what might be the best way to engage the ESIP Education committee in collaborative efforts related to K-12, community college or possibly vocational college scenarios.
  6. All who can - Join the session at ESIP Winter on Sophie’s findings and discussion of next steps for the DMT work (http://commons.esipfed.org/node/8763)


Announcement:

Next meeting on January 7th will fall during ESIP Winter, so the meeting will probably not happen then; a special meeting may be held for the group to review / discuss the full USGS CDI Proposal as it will be due before the next regularly scheduled meeting on February 4th, 2016.


Agenda and Notes:

  • DMT Clearinghouse
1. Nancy provided an review of the proposal that was submitted.
2. Overall, the project was proposed for a period of six months between March 2016 to September 2016.
3. Matt mentioned an effort from NCEAS that had a very similar scope as this project.
i. Nancy had communicated and shared the clearinghouse project with Matt Jones of NCEAS and Erin. Further discussions would be needed to plan out how the two projects could collaborate and consolidated, if needed.
ii. Amber indicated that NCEAS’ project might be more focused on finding a suitable online educational training environment.
- Who / How to help
- Take advantage of opportunities to discuss at ESIP Winter Meeting?
- Timeline
1. Tamar - The full proposal can be based on the statement of interest with more details added, especially in terms of the timeline and budget.
2. Amber and Bob - Will be more available in January to assist with the full proposal.
3. Sophie - The session that was proposed by Sophie/Matt/Nancy had been scheduled on the preliminary Winter Meeting Schedule (http://commons.esipfed.org/node/8763); we could use this session as an opportunity to meet in person to discuss the full proposal further.


  • Other areas of activity that people have expressed interest in:
1. Sophie was funded to do a comparison/analysis of ESIP’s data management short course with similar modules from other organizations. Results will be summarized at Winter ESIP. She has identified some topics not covered by the ESIP modules.
2. Ruth - Covering gaps would be a higher priority for the next phase of the Short Course.
3. Shannon would be interested in creating modules when we are ready to do that based on documentation that she has already created for her scientists at BCO-DMO.
  • Finding other collaborators (e.g., ESIP Education committee or AGU Education group?)
  • Assessment of current process of creation / editing / peer review for new ESIP Short course modules
  • Evaluation of current modules: needed / how to do?
