Regrets: Hayley; Kaia; Catharina

  • Discussed having a separate meeting to talk about how we all use Colectica (maybe in June?)

  • Save for next time - Discuss: how to talk to an org about using DDI and keeping costs low

    • it’s expensive but saves money in the long run

    • for ddi-L the tools are limited

  • Currently working on:

  1. Concepts deck - Dan is working on edits based on March meeting discussion

  2. Unit type slide deck version Nov 22, 2022 - Kaia updated this deck recently; group should review newest version - we starting reviewing this deck together; Dan recorded feedback in comments; got up to slide 8 - continue in June meeting

  3. DDI_for_researchers_and_data_managers - new version with slide 21 change - await slide group feedback

    1. Feedback received: might be still to abstract for some people; the term machine actionability is not well known. Maybe this can be an idea for future slides to also give an idea/example what this term means and what kind of benefit the research community can get if all research data is machine actionable, meaning also semantically interoperable. This would allow for automated data merging/linking for example which is very time consuming if it cannot be done automatically.

      This is about the future vision of (social) science which will be more and more computer and data science driven.

  4. DDITL_12_1_0_Data_Quality_Webinar - no updates

  5. Understanding metadata deck - Hayley will check for final edits

  6. How_to_use_the_DDI_Training_Materials slide deck - Cat reviewed and provided feedback: we probably don’t need page 11 about the DDI logo as it’s already covered on page 6

    1. we should consider having a (google) document or page for suggested slide decks to be used together instead of in the slide deck to avoid version issues

  7. Implementing fair with DDI - awaiting Training Group review and feedback

  • Outstanding slide decks and actions:

  1. Programmer’s Intro to DDI - Dan, Arofan - on hold for now

    1. Older technical slide deck examples: Gesis box Review WG DDI_OldTechSlides.zip.

      1. Ensure that these are used when more technical/detailed slide decks are produced.

    2. Maybe there will be hackathon content we can use - KL emailed Ingo about intro content

  2. Questions and questionnaires slide deck - part of Training Fair for EDDI - low priority at this time

    1. Hayley has a newer version from when she presented; will share when we finish the other slides
