23 (research data) things are here for you!

  • Use as a self paced learning activity or as a refresher
  • Adopt it as suggested training for all staff
  • Contextualise it for your discipline or situation
  • Adapt it to meet your specific research data knowledge needs

The 23 (research data) things program was rolled out by ANDS during 2016. More than 1500 people participated from across Australia, New Zealand and beyond. The program formally ended in October 2016, the materials developed for 23 (research data) things will remain available on this ARDC github repository.

Every effort is made to ensure things and activities remain current, so please submit a GitHub Pull Request to our ARDC-23-things repository if you discover a broken link or have suggestions for a more recent example.

You can also submit an issue with a clear description of your updates. Alternatively, contact the ARDC directly

Ideas for reusing these materials

The possibilities are endless! The materials developed for the 23 (research data) things program can be used however you wish. Some ideas and suggestions are below:

Self-directed learning activity

Individuals or small groups can work through the program at their own pace.

  • Step through the 23 ‘things’
  • Have a choice of three learning activities for each thing: Getting started, Learn more or Challenge me
  • Do all 23 or 'cherry pick’ the things you most need to know or have an interest in

Customise things for different audiences

  • Change the activity links to showcase your data services
  • Select a few things to offer as a 1 hour workshop
  • Adapt several things for specific audiences and discipline

Run your own short courses

The materials and resources you need are in the training materials section. Run some short courses for your work group, new inductees or other groups at your institution.

  • Crash course covers the first 12 things: can be run in three hours
  • Sprint to the finish covers things 13 - 23: can be run in three hours

Shorter sessions:

  • Things 1-8: excellent introduction to the basic concepts
  • Things 9-16: valuable for those who need more in-depth information
  • Things 17-22: more technically focused for those wanting to understand how tools, apps and APIs support data

If you have questions or comments about any of the things you can share them by tweeting to @ardc_au or in the Data Librarians Slack Workspace.

Examples of reuse

Topic specific workshops

  • E.g. sensitive data using [Thing 9]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-09 "Thing 9") and [Thing 10]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-10 "Thing 10") or data citation with [Thing 7]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-07 "Thing 7") and [Thing 8]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-09 "Thing 8").

Adapt and contextualise for specific groups of people

  • Information professionals  eg [Thing 4 (Discovery)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-04), [Thing 5 (Sharing)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-05), [Thing 7 (Citation)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-07), [Thing 8 (Metrics)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-08), [Thing 17 (Data literacy)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-17)
  • Research impact professionals eg [Thing 8 (metrics)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-08) and [Thing 16 (Funders and Publishers)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-16)
  • Institutional data managers eg [Thing 11 (Schemas)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-11), [Thing 12 (Vocabularies)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-12), [Thing 13 (Crosswalks)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-13), [Thing 14 (Identifiers)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-14)
  • Ethics committee members eg [Thing 9 (Licensing)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-09), [Thing 10 (sharing sensitive data)]({{ site.baseurl }}/researchdata/thing-10)
