| **[https://www.idigbio.org/sites/default/files/workshop-presentations/tdwg-2015/data-training-programmes-TDWG2015.mp4 Data training programmes in large natural history museums to tackle their digital challenges] Dimitris Koureas & Clare Valentine, NHM
| |
| * How to make our training sustainable
| |
| ** Converting our training materials for posterity/sustainability
| |
| *** Perhaps partner with Coursera (or a firm like them)
| |
| ** Funding for participant support will be declining after 2017
| |
| * Tools Knowledge in the Community
| |
| ** Developing a strategy for sharing what tools are out there
| |
| *** Example: [http://www.biovel.eu/ Biovel]
| |
| ** Sharing information about skills needed to use particular tools
| |
| *** Could get lots of info from iPlant and Data Carpentry about the skills problems people run into when trying to use any of the community tools for research.
| |
| *** Use this to strategically point people to where they can transform their data, or learn the skill.
| |
| * Website update and sustainability
| |
| ** Increase role of community in maintaining content -> larger role for Wiki; lesser role for Drupal
| |
| ** Content organization/re-organization
| |
| ** Facelift?
| |
| * Sustainability issues for iDigBio + TCNs
| |
| ** Historical Knowledge and Documents
| |
| *** Do TCNs have robust plans for sharing developed workflows / protocols / policies (on digitization, imaging, archiving, communication strategies,...)
| |
| *** Do they archive plans for these documents?
| |
| **** Can we provide this?
| |
| *** TCN Staff (at high, middle, and in-the-trenches) are amassing a wealth of knowledge about digitization. When their funding ends, a great deal of this may be lost.
| |
| **** How do we include these TCNs in future summits?
| |
| **** Is there a role for some Video Exit Interviews (oral interviews), to capture this knowledge? Perhaps Shari and Betty could set something up?
| |
