Subject: [Rdap] New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum is
live!

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that today the New England Collaborative Data
Management Curriculum site is live at http://library.umassmed.edu/necdmc.

The New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum offers openly
available materials that librarians can use to teach research data
management best practices to students in the sciences, health sciences and
engineering fields, at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The materials
in the curriculum are openly available, with lecture notes and slide
presentations that librarians teaching RDM can customize for their
particular audiences. The curriculum also has a database of real life
research cases that can be integrated into the curriculum to address
discipline specific data management topics.

The New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum (NECDMC) project
has been led by the Lamar Soutter Library at the University of
Massachusetts Medical School with funding from the National Network of
Libraries of Medicine New England Region.

The Lamar Soutter Library developed the Frameworks for a Data Management
Curriculum (See http://library.umassmed.edu/data_management_frameworks.pdf)
with Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 2011. Over the past year the
Soutter Library has partnered with librarians from Tufts University,
University of Massachusetts Amherst, Northeastern, and the Marine
Biological Laboratory and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute to fully
develop the curriculum's lecture content, readings, activities, and slide
presentations.

Some libraries will be piloting the curriculum at their institutions and
conducting evaluations with students of the learning modules. If you are
teaching or plan to teach RDM, we invite you to pilot the NECDMC. If you
are interested in being a pilot partner, please contact Donna Kafel at
donna.kafel at umassmed.edu

Best regards,
Elaine Martin, DA, PI, Editor-in-Chief
