MSPnet Academy: Do It Right From the Outset, or Do It Again and Again
Description
Mathematics and Science Partnership (MSP) and Research and Evaluation Technical Assistance (RETA) projects generate large amounts of data from multiple sources to enable the research and evaluation agendas to respond to questions and provide evidence. NSF proposals require a data management plan; it is very important to think through the data sources, collection, and analysis needs well in advance of collecting data, so that data management can be implemented from the outset, to minimize the number of changes that take place over time, ensuring the analyses are conducted on the correct data sets at the right times to provide solid evidence. We will share data management plan models, challenges, and solutions, to help "get it right from the outset."
