Data Mindfulness: Making the most of your dissertation.
7 (of 8). Dealing with Versions.
This video focuses on the importance of versioning and suggests approaches to version the data and files you create while carrying out your dissertation project.

This 8-part introductory course was created especially for undergraduate students by the Research Data Service at the University of Edinburgh. Candela Sanchez, a PhD student at the University of Edinburgh, provides a guide to dissertations along with guidance and tips to help you make the most of your final dissertation project.

The course is structured following the journey you will go through, from thinking of a research question, to conducting a literature search, to managing data (whichever form this takes), to writing up, and dealing with your dissertation data after submission.

These videos are designed to work well alongside the 'Data Mindfulness: Making the most of your dissertation' handbook, which you can access here:
