Description
SODa strengthens the data literacy and data science skills of all staff involved in university collections. The focus is on OERs for collection-related research data management, providing foundational knowledge, discipline-specific content, current standards, and best practices.
The development of these OERs follows a didactic, methodological, and technical framework. Coherent personas serve as the foundation for targeted learning design, making learners' prior knowledge, needs, motivation, and experience transparent. Research-based learning fosters independence and personal responsibility.
In this context, the learning objectives matrix for RDM is applied and expanded as needed to incorporate additional discipline-specific aspects. The learning objectives set the direction, structure the learning process, and balance knowledge transfer with self-directed learning. They define the use of didactic methods and formats, ensure learning success, and support the practical application of knowledge. Accordingly, problem-based learning approaches are integrated into both synchronous and asynchronous formats and made available as FAIR OERs to the collection and RDM community.
Currently, planned modules include collection development, cataloging, working with data in conservation and restoration documentation, semantic data modeling, data visualization, and image classification.
