Introduction to Data Management Plans is an introductory course aiming at disseminating Data Management best practices and teaching the basics of making and using Data Management Plans (DMP) in the context of research activities.
The course is available in two modalities:
- two hour lecture with discussions
- full day hands-on course with a group exercise
In both modalities, the course features two introductory lectures on Research Data Management and DMPs.
In the hands-on modality, this is followed by a hands-on DMP exercise where participants will form groups to fill in a DMP for a mock research project on our custom canvas
In the lecture modality, the exercise is replaced by a short demonstration of preparing a DMP.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are now offering both modalities in a distance learning paradigm, as a live online courses through Zoom. The hands-on group exercise is carried out using Zoom breakout rooms where participants collaboratively fill in the DMP in a Google spreadsheet template.
