#dariahTeach

#dariahTeach is a platform for Open Educational Resources (OER) for Digital Arts and Humanities educators and students, but also beyond this aiming at Higher Education across a spectrum of disciplines, at teachers and trainers engaged in the digital transformation of programme content and learning methods. #dariaTeach has two key objectives: sharing and reuse, thus developing a place for people to publish their teaching material and for others to use it in their own teaching.

R for Reproducible Scientific Analysis

An introduction to R for non-programmers using gapminder data

The goal of this lesson is to teach novice programmers to write modular code and best practices for using R for data analysis. R is commonly used in many scientific disciplines for statistical analysis and its array of third-party packages. We find that many scientists who come to Software Carpentry workshops use R and want to learn more. The emphasis of these materials is to give attendees a strong foundation in the fundamentals of R, and to teach best practices for scientific computing: breaking down analyses into modular units, task automation, and encapsulation.

D7.4 How to be FAIR with your data. A teaching and training handbook for higher education institutions

This handbook aims to support higher education institutions with the integration of FAIR-related content in their curricula and teaching. It was written and edited by a group of about 40 collaborators in a series of six book sprint events that took place between 1 and 10 June 2021. The document provides practical material, such as competence profiles, learning outcomes and lesson plans, and supporting information. It incorporates community feedback received during the public consultation which ran from 27 July to 12 September 2021.

Introduction to Research Data Management and Open Research

Introduction to RDM primarily for researchers. Can be seen as primer to all other materials in this catalogue.

This presentation was delivered virtually for Botswana Open University Library on 17th May 2021 as part of a Foundational Data Stewardship Workshop. It is primarily aimed at data stewards but can also be useful to researchers and RDM service providers and should be viewed in conjunction with these two other presentations that were part of the same workshop:

  • DOI:10.5281/zenodo.4665390 (Open and Responsible Research: Roles and Responsibilities for Data Stewards)
  • DOI:10.5281/zenodo.4561728 (Developing and Implementing a Research Data Policy)
Research data management service delivery

This module is a part of the introductory online course “Data Steward Training”. In this course learners will develop the skills and gain knowledge on how to be a successful data steward. 

By the end of this module, learners will:

  • Understand different types of RDM services which their institution or organisation may need to provide. 

  • Be able to use the RISE model to plan and develop your RDM services.

This module is suitable for data stewards and trainers seeking introductory learning material. It will take on average one hour to complete the module. 

The materials include a video presentation, a full video transcript, a PowerPoint presentation and a learning activity to support learning.   

This learning material has been developed in collaboration with the FAIRsFAIR and EOSC Synergy projects. The majority of the material has been used in previous online data steward instructor training workshops in 2020 and 2021.

Open and responsible research

This module is a part of the introductory online course “Data Steward Training”. In this course learners will develop the skills and gain knowledge on how to be a successful data steward. 

By the end of this module, learners will:

  • Understand the range of elements of responsible research ecosystems.

  • Be able to identify different ways to sustain and support responsible research. 

This module is suitable for data stewards and trainers seeking introductory learning material. It will take on average one hour to complete the module. 

The materials include a video presentation, a full video transcript, a PowerPoint presentation and a quiz to support learning.

This learning material has been developed in collaboration with the FAIRsFAIR and EOSC Synergy projects and has been adapted from the Data Steward Instructor Training Workshops run throughout 2020 and 2021.

Design training in easy steps

This module is a part of the introductory online course “Data Steward Training”. In this course learners will develop the skills and gain knowledge on how to be a successful data steward. 

By the end of this module, learners will:

  • Understand the role of pedagogy and learning activities to teach effectively. 

  • Be able to critically assess the reasons for organising training activities.  

  • Be able to create training which meets their aims and the needs of their learners.

This module is suitable for data stewards and trainers seeking introductory learning material. It will take on average one hour to complete the module. 

The materials include a video presentation, a full video transcript, a PowerPoint presentation and various learning activities and resources to support learning.   

This learning material has been developed in collaboration with the FAIRsFAIR and EOSC Synergy projects. The majority of the material has been used in previous online data steward instructor training workshops in 2020 and 2021. 

Introduction to RDM, FAIR and Open Science

This module is a part of the introductory online course “Data Steward Training”. In this course learners will develop the skills and gain knowledge on how to be a successful data steward. 

By the end of this module, learners will:

  • Be able to explain the difference between FAIR and Open Data to researchers.

  • Be able to make data FAIR by using a set of practical guidelines and tools.

  • Understand the range of skills and knowledge associated with data stewardship.

  • Be aware of different approaches to stewardship service provision.

  • Be able to identify key elements that help make research data discoverable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.

  • Be able to practise making data FAIR. 

This module is suitable for data stewards and trainers seeking introductory learning material. It will take around 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete the module. 

The materials include video presentations, full video transcripts, PowerPoint presentations and various learning activities and resources to support learning.

Overview of needs for competence centres

The overall objective of FAIRsFAIR is to accelerate the realization of the goals of the EOSC by opening up and sharing all knowledge, expertise, guidelines, implementations, new trajectories, courses and education on FAIR matters. To support this, FAIRsFAIR is tasked to set up a single FAIR Data Stewardship Competence Centre which this report defines as a shared hub of expertise in implementing FAIR data stewardship principles, offering leadership, coordination and cataloging services to connect relevant people, guidance, learning resources and curricula in different thematic areas.

Requirements for competence centres in general and a core competence centre for FAIR data stewardship in general were identified by interviewing other members of the FAIRsFAIR project to understand their expectations for a core competence centre as well as the resources they will contribute to the knowledge base. Furthermore, we carried out a broad characterisation of current competence centres enriched with case studies of good examples for certain aspects of a competence centre. We created user stories for how stakeholders might interact with the competence centres and refined them through an open consultation answered by 106 people, interviews with EOSC clusters, and feedback gathered in workshops at the Open Science Fair 2019.
