Analysis of Dutch RDM courses (December 2017)

All working group members, as well as members of the associated National Coordination Point of Research Data Management (LCRDM), were asked to provide information on their RDM courses. The Data Information Literacy Competences Matrix by Purdue University (Nelson, S., & Megan, R., 2016) was used as a framework to collect this data.

In an online spreadsheet, members filled in how their course mapped onto the framework, in terms of the content of their courses (if it addressed e.g. quality assurance, data visualisation, and data analysis), and at which level this content was offered (undergraduate, graduate, or senior). Other details such as schedules, trainers, and re-use licences were also registered. In addition to filling in the spreadsheet, members were asked to share their course materials in an online environment.
