WHAT’S THIS SESSION ABOUT?
Using real research data in teaching can help students develop data literacy skills and better understand academic research processes. In this Data Snack, we offer a first glimpse into an upcoming collaboration between the DSC and the University of Bremen’s Office for Higher Education Didactics (Hochschuldidaktik) that will focus on reflecting data literacy aspects of your teaching and teaching with data.
In this session, we will talk about how research data can enrich university teaching, provide some examples, highlight the benefits this holds not only for students, but also for teachers and researchers (e.g. showcasing own research, research-based learning), and from a research ethics perspective (e.g. transparency, sustainable data use). We will also address key challenges (e.g. data protection) and hint at possible strategies to deal with them.
We are also eager to hear from you: What types of data – qualitative, quantitative, your own, or from repositories – would you like to use more in your teaching? What experience do you have with (re)using research data in the classroom? Are the students in your degree program trained in data literacy? What would your students need regarding data literacy? And what support would you need from a future workshop? Join us for a short input and open discussion on opportunities and needs in teaching and learning with real research data.
WHERE AND WHEN?
The session will take place from 1:00 to 1:30pm via Zoom. There will be a 15-20 minute presentation followed by an open forum for questions and discussion. The slides will be shared afterwards. We look forward to exciting discussions!
