The central role of metadata in a science data literacy course
Jian Qin,John D'Ignazio +1 more
TL;DR: An NSF-funded project at the Syracuse University School of Information Studies examined this changing environment and directed specific attention to digital data management practices and metadata proved to have a central role in how scientists operate in the e-science information environment.
Lessons learned from a two-year experience in science data literacy education
Jian Qin,John D'Ignazio +1 more
Abstract: In spring 2008 and 2009, we offered a course “Scientific Data Management” to undergraduate and graduate students from science and technology majors with support from an NSF CCLI (award #0633447) grant. We actively advertised the course on campus and conducted outreach efforts to individual classes and faculty representing a wide range of science and technology disciplines. Each time the course was offered, we conducted preand post-course surveys to assess the instructional effectiveness and learning outcomes. This paper will describe our experience as well as lessons learned in three areas: science faculty perceptions on data management, effect of science curriculum structures on data literacy education, and changes of students’ perceptions and aptitudes, and discuss how the lessons learned will help shape our escience Librarianship curriculum development, which is being funded by IMLS.

Variables As Currency: Linking Meta-Analysis Research and Data Paths in Sciences
TL;DR: A conceptual framework linking meta-analyses with data paths represented in published articles selected for the analysis is developed, focusing on key variables that represent primary/secondary datasets or derived socio-ecological data, contexts of use, and the data transformations that are applied.
