Standardized data management plan for educational research
Published:
The collaborative project Domain-Data-Protocols for Empirical Educational Research in Germany (DDP-Bildung) and the German Network for Ecucational Research Data (VerbundFDB) have developed a standardized data management plan for educational research (Stamp) (German)External link together with researchers, research data management experts and representatives of research data infrastructure institutions, discipline associations and funding agencies. It provides specific guidelines for planning, implementing, and documenting data management measures and replaces the previous VerbundFDB checklist for creating a data management plan.
From the VerbundFDB website (translated):
The Stamp consists of a basic module and eight content modules. The basic module captures general information about the research project, the data, and the files to be managed. The basic module structures the data management and provides essential information, e.g. for proposals, reports or reviews. The eight content modules provide specific guidelines for data management in the areas of research ethics, data protection, copyright, reproducibility, availability, long-term preservation, responsibilities and ressources.
The Stamp is currently available as beta version (version 0.9) in pdf form. An online version for the Research Data Management Organizer (RDMO) is currently under development.
