The workshop was developed and first presented by Megan N. O'Donnell on October 17 at the 2016 Midwest Data Librarians Symposium, Ann Arbor Michigan.

Activity Description

Small groups will work together to create a data persona - a fictional archetype of a researcher, their research data, and research practices as they relate to data management.

Learning Outcomes

• Illustrate true-to-life research situations to promote critical thinking and problem solving.

• Recognize how data and project management intersect throughout the research process.

• Appraise problems that hinder successful data management.

• Identify potential strategies and talking points for helping different personas.

You can find editable versions of the PDFs, as well all the other files on Google Drive (see References) which is where they were originally developed.
