description: <strong>Slides from WORKSHOP - Introduction to Humanities Research Data Management (Part 1 Theory, Ulrike Wuttke) held at Luxembourg Open Science Forum, 15.11.2018</strong> Reusable, machine-readable data are one pillar of Open Science (Open Scholarship). Serving this data<br> reuse aspect requires from researchers to carefully document their methods and to take good care of<br> their research data. Due to this paradigm shift, for Humanities and Heritage researchers, activities and<br> issues around planning, organizing, storing, and sharing data and other research results and products<br> play an increasing role. Therefore, during two workshop sessions Ulrike Wuttke and Jochen Klar will dive<br> with the participants into a number of topics, technologies, and methods that are connected with<br> Humanities Research Data Management. The participants will acquire knowledge and skills that will<br> enable them to draft their own executable research data management plan that will support the<br> production of reusable, machine-readable data, a key prerequisite for conducting effective and<br> sustainable projects. Topics that will be covered are theoretical reflections on the role of data within<br> humanities research and cultural heritage studies, opportunities and challenges of eHumanities and<br> eResearch, implementing the FAIR principles and relevant standards, and basics of Data Management<br> Planning. <br> <strong>Learning outcomes</strong>: Participants of this workshop will gain an overview about issues related to<br> Humanities Research Data Management and learn about relevant tools and information resources.<br> Through a hands-on session, the participants will be especially equipped and skilled to draft the nucleus<br> of their own Research Data Management Plan. <br> <strong>Structure of the workshop</strong>: The workshop will consist of two sessions. In the morning session, the<br> basics of Humanities Research Data Management will be discussed with the participants using examples<br> from various humanities backgrounds and projects. The afternoon session will be dedicated to handson<br> data management planning using the data management planning tool RDMO. This supervised<br> practical exercise will offer the participants the opportunity to learn by doing. Participants are<br> encouraged to discuss data management issues related to their own projects (or project ideas) ideas<br> and to contact the trainers beforehand. <strong>Audience</strong>: The workshop sessions are aimed at Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage researchers<br> and practitioners with who wish to learn how to enable good Research Data Management and the<br> sharing and reuse of data from a humanities point of view. No special previous knowledge or<br> programming skills are required. <br> TRAINERS<br> <strong>Ulrike Wuttke</strong> (Doctor of Literature, Universiteit Gent 2012, wuttke@fh-potsdam.de) is a medievalist and<br> textual scholar by training. She contributes to projects and networks in digital preservation and digital<br> arts and humanities via groups such as the Working Group Data Centres of the Verband Digital<br> Humanities im deutschsprachigen Raum (deputy convenor). Her professional activities focus on training<br> and personal counselling on data management, open science and Digital Humanities as well as public<br> relations, communication and outreach. She joined the PARTHENOS project and FH Potsdam in April<br> 2017. She leads task 7.2 (Implementation of the Training plan) of the H2020 project PARTHENOS. She<br> coordinates the further development of its online training platform, the PARTHENOS Training Suite, and<br> the PARTHENOS eHumanities and eHeritage Webinar Series. <br> <strong>Jochen Klar </strong>(PhD in numerical cosmology, University of Potsdam 2012, jklar@aip.de) works in the area of<br> data management and eScience at the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and takes part in<br> various data related projects, both in astrophysics as well as in interdisciplinary contexts. He was<br> involved in the development of several astronomical data portals (e.g. RAVE, APPLAUSE, CosmoSim,<br> GREGOR). For the DFG projects RADIESCHEN and DFG-VRE, he investigated the sustainability and the<br> organizational structure of data management and virtual research environments in Germany. He is the<br> main developer of the Daiquiri framework for the publication of astronomical databases and of the<br> RDM-planning tool RDMO (Research Data Management Organiser).
