Data Management Training/meeting notes 20160204

Agenda:

• Report on Proposal submitted to USGS Community for Data Integration (CDI) Program for a DMT Clearinghouse (See https://docs.google.com/document/d/1w3hXUJSDNJ5YBIay1uiH2_fPNFq9kjGmlCD51ove7Ug/edit?usp=sharing )

• Anything we can do in the meantime?

• Other ideas for activities (from July mtg notes last year):

• Inventory of topics compared to ESIP’s original outline (Sophie’s Funding Friday work).
• Evaluation of topics informed by Sophie’s comparison.
• Evaluation of existing modules including:

• Running some analytics (including Google Analytics) against the ESIP Commons website and possibly the Vimeo website for the modules to see how much they have been used, and other information that we could ascertain; would need to figure out how what could be discovered from Google Analytics and add to Drupal listings, probably. Talk to ESIP Drupal content manager about this?

• Market / offer existing DM Short Course modules.
• Call for authors for new modules and for updates to selected existing modules.
• Evaluate current DM Short Course template and peer review process
• Connect with ESIP Education Committee

• Reports from other organizations / working groups: (DataONE, RDA, etc.)
• Anything else?
