The goal of this workshop is to raise the awareness of process management and assessment for RDM and to learn how to apply the Capability Maturity Model (CMM) for RDM for the purpose of process assessment.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>As a tool to increase the reliability of RDM, since 2011 we have been developing a CMM for RDM by gathering evidence from literature and empirical observations and identifying and clustering key RDM practices. The current draft CMM for RDM includes five specific RDM practice areas: 1) Data management in general; 2) Data acquisition, processing and quality assurance; 3) Data description and representation; 4) Data dissemination; and 5) Repository services and preservation. The CMM for RDM framework will provide guidelines that are much needed in data policy making, personnel training, and performance assessment.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Learning to Teach, Teach for Learning: Instructional Practices for Data Services<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Friday, March 28, 1:00pm-5:00pm<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Lisa Hinchliffe<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>University Library, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Data services specialists are increasingly called upon to provide instructional sessions for users and colleagues.
