Wie organisiert man Forschungsdaten? In dieser Einführung zeigen wir Ihnen, wie Sie Ihre Forschungsdaten organisieren und sichern. Dabei gehen wir sowohl auf Namenskonventionen als auch auf unterschiedliche Speicherorte sowie deren Vor- und Nachteile ein. So ist eines sicher: Datenverlust war gestern.
In der Einheit “Daten erheben” wird ein Überblick darüber gegeben, auf welche vielfältige Weise Daten gewonnen werden können. Dabei wird beispielhaft gezeigt, wodurch sich verschiedene Datenquellen unterscheiden und welche theoretischen sowie praktischen Aspekte zu beachten sind, um die für das Forschungsvorhaben passenden Daten zu gewinnen.
In this respect it is about more than just the application of statistical methods. Rather, the focus must be on the questions that a society wants to have answered with solid statistics for its current, pressing and conflict-laden issues. Other aspects then play a role here, namely whether politics values and finances this infrastructure, whether corresponding data literacy is available in the population at large, and so on.
Wie identifiziert man eigentlich die Qualität und Verwerndbarkeit von Forschungsdaten? Wir geben eine kurze Einführung. Hierbei zeigen wir, wie Sie “gute” Daten erkennen können und welche Kriterien hierfür wichtig sind.
New data sources and data science methods open up substantial opportunities for research and for improving statistics. However, the integration of traditional and newer methods requires more than the merging of methodology and technology. Rather, it is also a matter of further developing the other dimensions of good information quality, namely those of infrastructure, language and values, simultaneously in an integrative manner in this sense.
This workshop will provide a discussion of the five safes framework in helping conceptualize and implement the joint determination of risk and utility. It will describe the Coleridge Initiative’s use of the US FedRAMP framework, as well as the FedRAMP approach in more detail, in terms of minimizing risk. It will then work through the role of training classes in creating value.
Wie findet man Forschungsdaten? Und wie erhält man Zugang zu den wichtigen Datenbanken für das eigene Fachgebiet? Wir geben Ihnen eine kurze Einführung. Hierbei zeigen wir Ihnen außerdem, wie Sie nutzbare Daten identifizieren und richtig zitieren können.

You will get to know the conditions for evidence-based policy to contribute to shaping the transformation processes that arise in times of crisis and to reducing social conflicts to their minimum. In addition to its function as a common language for public (national and international) discourse, public statistics also serve as a data source and partner for research on individual and social behavior.
In this workshop we will not just present the results, but have hands-on tutorials to work with the resulting API, dashboard, Jupyter Notebooks and visualization tools. The goal is to inspire BERD researchers to collaborate – or to develop new approaches to building an Amazon.com for European scientific and public data.
