To help researchers manage and share their data more effectively, the authors of the article “Support Your Data: A Research Data Management Guide for Researchers” are developing a suite of tools which we are currently referring to as “Support Your Data”.
At present, the Support Your Data materials consist of a rubric designed to allow researchers to self assess their own RDM practices and a complementary series of one page guides intended to provide researchers access to RDM-related expertise and advance practices as necessary or desired. All of these materials are intended to be customizable in order to meet the needs of researchers in different institutional or disciplinary contexts.
The guide:
- Planning your project ;
- Organizing your data ;
- Saving and backing up your data ;
- Getting your data ready for analysis ;
- Analyzing your data and handling the outputs ;
- Sharing and publishing your data.
