|Brown bag lunch discussion. Darwin Core! and other standards. Emphasis of benefits of starting off using them right away. Presented in field using a handout and conversation regarding Darwin Core and other standards. Input from outside experts important for addressing sound/image/paleontological and ecological standards. Metadata.

|Breakout Group 1: Activity (60min): Students are grouped into pairs or groups of three. Each team does two rounds of mini-collecting, 10 minutes each for total of 20 minutes. For the first 10 min: Each team has to collect and record data for a few insects they collect on blank paper (e.g. a journal page). For the second 10 minutes, each team repeats this process but now is given a generic data sheet to fill in. The collecting focus is insects on plants.

|Breakout Group 2: Activity (60min): Collecting media in the field. Audio and video recordings, as well as photographs, of animals in nature are increasingly becoming important sources of data for biodiversity studies, yet there are few standards for how these should be collected in the field, the sorts of metadata that should be included, and how to preserve and make them accessible to the research community. In this activity we will demonstrate and discuss basic techniques for collecting biodiversity media and metadata in the field, as well as techniques that are being developed to deposit those data quickly and easily in a secure archive.
