Networked Instruction for Research Data Curation Education: The CRADLE Project
In this paper, we describe a new initiative to develop a massive open online course (MOOC) for training library and information science students, library practitioners, and data producers in data curation. The Curating Research Assets and Data using Lifecycle Education (CRADLE) project exploits the affordances of MOOC technology to provide a networked learning environment that will encourage and foster the creation of research ecosystems in which CRADLE participants—library and information graduate students, library practitioners, and data producers—will have opportunities to collaborate with and learn from others engaged in data curation practice.
