It was a very<br> well-organized event, and I learned a number of things.<br><br> First of all, I believe the twelve DIL Competencies were well-founded<br> and articulated:<br><br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* conversion & interoperability<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* cultures of practice<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* curation & re-use<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* databases & formats<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* discovery & acquisition<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* ethics & attribution<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* management & organization<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* metadata & description<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* preservation<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* processing & analytics<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* quality & documentation<br><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>* visualization & representation<br><br> For more detail of what these competencies mean and how they were<br> originally articulated, see: Carlson, Jake R.; Fosmire, Michael; Miller,<br> Chris; and Sapp Nelson, Megan, "Determining Data Information Literacy<br> Needs: A Study of Students and Research Faculty" (2011).

Paper 23.<br> <a href="http://docs.lib.purdue.edu/lib_fsdocs/23">http://docs.lib.purdue.edu/lib_fsdocs/23</a><br><br> I also learned about Bloom's Taxonomy, a classification of learning<br> objectives. At the bottom of this hierarchy/classification is<br> remembering. The next level up is understanding. The third level is<br> application. At the top of the hierarchy/classification is analysis,<br> evaluation, and creation. According to the model, a person needs to move<br> from remembering through to analysis, evaluation, and creation in order<br> to really say they have learned something.<br><br> Some of my additional take-aways included: spend time teaching graduate<br> students about data information literacy, and it is almost necessary to<br> be imbedded or directly involved in the data collection process in order<br> to have a real effect — get into the lab.<br> <br> About 100 people attended the event. It was two days long. Time was not<br> wasted. There were plenty of opportunities for discussion & interaction.<br> Hat's off to Purdue. From my point of view, y'all did a good job.
