Participants will gain a clearer understanding of qualitative data sharing norms and practices across the social, health, and other human focused sciences.<\/p>\n<p>The session will highlight practical steps researchers can take to keep qualitative materials organized throughout any project, which also can support future archiving and re use of the materials they collect. QDR\u2019s Associate Director will further showcase examples of nuanced data sharing approaches from current published data projects, including sensitive data secured under different levels of access control, will demonstrate how the deposit process at the repository works, and highlight data available for pedagogical purposes as well.<\/p>\n<p>This webinar is intended for faculty, students, and staff who are using qualitative or multi method techniques. It is especially useful for those preparing data management or data sharing plans (DMPs or DMSPs) for federal or private foundation funding applications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Speaker: <\/strong>Dessislava Kirilova, Associate Director, Qualitative Data Repository<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Caption the Chart Challenge<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Dates:<\/strong> Feb. 9 to 13<br \/><strong>Location:<\/strong> HSHSL<\/p>\n<p>Find one of our chart displays around the HSHSL and try your hand at writing a creative and funny caption.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Questions?
