Presented by:
  • Sarah J. Wright, Cornell University
 

Description:
Graduate students working with research data need data management skills. This poster will discuss the development of a one-credit disciplinary course to teach these skills, which are often learned by trial and error or passed on by peers. Top educational priorities identified and the teaching approaches, materials, and assessment strategies used will be shared. By sharing our experiences, both successes and failures, we hope to grow the community around this type of instruction.

  • Erin McCall, ARTstor
 

Description:
This poster will demonstrate how one institution visualizes their growing digital image database. By managing the data locally, they successfully collaborated with their database provider to implement an application programming interface (API) that reveals connections between exhibitors’ locations and trends in artists’ materials in their data. The result is a dynamic visual platform that is accessible to the institution’s staff and faculty, and can be leveraged by other institutions that are interested in the API.
