Regrets: Alina Danciu
From last meeting:
Two slide decks were sent by Kathryn for everyone to review before this meeting as we will focus on finishing them this year - Understanding metadata and Data Quality.
Any volunteers to finish them?
Current deck statuses:
Unit-Unit_Type-Universe-Population deck (new version from today) - Published as of Feb 14, 2024!
How_to_use_the_DDI_Training_Materials_v5 deck - Kathryn has finalized, Hayley has sent to SB review
DDITL_12_1_0_Data_Quality_Webinar - no updates - revisit in 2024; Kaia will re-review but may take time; Hayley will help
This deck was already used a couple years ago for a webinar. It is in Zenodo
The videos are available on the codata site. Kaia worked on this originally
needs edits from TG feedback - consider emphasizing audience and theme, as needed
“Data Quality” is a tool and specific aspect of DDI-L; not sure what is available in DDI-C and DDI -CDI for this.
DDITL_11_1_0_Understanding_Metadata_Feb2023 deck - TG feedback already applied; Dan and Kathryn will work together to finalize
We need to decide on a consistent message about structured/unstructured metadata; slide 29/providing an example of schema vs textual (feedback from TG)
How many decks does this replace? The initial content is overlapping with the Basics of Metadata deck in Zenodo. Dan was the one who worked on this, this is slightly more advanced than the one on zenodo. Keep the basic one and having this as an extra one? Add disclaimer / description to say that it’s overlapped with the Basics of Metadata.
Alina has reported that a Korean colleague has been working on the translation of three slide decks - the ones that were also translated to French. She will finish them very quickly, probably this week. Their main concern now is to find people able to revise them. Jieun has found social sciences archives in Korea and a sort of Asian CESSDA and they were planning on contacting them for this revision. Is everyone okay with this as these slide decks will be published under this sub group’s authority. We will need to inform the technical and scientific board once the revision has started. - how do we check the translation is accurate?
Group thinks that at least 2 people should be involved in the translation; the person who did it and someone else
We may need to create a protocol for translations
We may also need to offer the unofficial publishing option, when translations cannot be verified
Can people from Asian CESSDA and Alina’s colleague join the TG?
Dan may have a colleague who can verify the Korean translation.
How to Publish Slide Decks - Map out protocols - Group can review/this is done
Zenodo steps - in progress - pretty much ready to be used, please review ad leave feedback as needed
Who to notify/where to promote after publishing to Zenodo
Notify Jared so it can be published to DDI TG site page; Jared is also the person for Twitter/socials
Who does the notifying/promoting - need to determine for the long run
marketing
Plan to discuss in March or April - For 2024 - review DDI Slide review WG - slide status
Not sure what this is, wait for Alina - Update on the work on the self-training DDI support (this is an example of their work) : it is a work in progress, the person in charge attended the French training we gave last Friday with Hilde and asked a lot of questions about exercises or games on DDI. We already have some of those; Alina plans to find them and translate them into French.
Outstanding slide decks and actions:
Programmer’s Intro to DDI - on hold for now
Dan tried to reach out to Arofan about this - nothing gained
Older technical slide deck examples: Gesis box https://gesisbox.gesis.org/index.php/s/78pzrRYYxCgFSfw?path=%2F DDI_OldTechSlides.zip.
Ensure that these are used when more technical/detailed slide decks are produced.
Idea to use hackathon content - KL emailed Ingo about intro content but the hackathon wasn’t planning for beginners
Maybe a new approach to this deck would be - how to introduce developers to DDI - what do you need to know to get started with DDI as a developer?
Something like this was done at Dagstuhl, train the trainers but that was some time ago
This might be too advanced/out of scope?
Potential webinar planned that may help address this (Adrian, R topic)
Hayley will ask programmer colleague about this/for their ideas about this
Questions and questionnaires slide deck - part of Training Fair for EDDI - low priority at this time
Hayley has a newer version from when she presented; will share when we finish the other slides

Sanda shared content to help us form a slide deck(s) on controlled vocabularies: Controlled Vocabularies Slides (Google folder)
Sanda will meet with us to discuss once we have had a chance to review the materials
Oct 2022 Webinar for use in future slide decks
Next meeting is Mar 26, 2024
