The case study in Sociology focuses on quantitative longitudinal research and data archiving. Professor Bren Neale talks about her research project Following Young Fathers, the various forms of qualitative data that are generated by the project, and the complications regarding the management and sharing of those data. She also talks about The Timescapes Archive for qualitative longitudinal datasets, in particular about ethics, data quality, the complications of data reuse, and the importance of metadata standards.

The case study in Psychology involves quantitative longitudinal research. Dr Richard Rowe talks about his research project into driving attitudes, for which he uses longitudinal data from a long-term project that follows 3,500 twins, Genesis 12-19. He also talks about the importance of metadata and the complications of data sharing.

The case study in Electronic and Electrical Engineering focuses on computational modelling in the field of antenna design and optimisation in relation to mobile phone technologies. Dr Jonathan Rigelsford talks about the data he produces in his research project on user identification in cellular networks. He also discuss data management issues relating to storing, backing up, preserving and sharing, as well as good student practice.

The case study in Civil and Structural Engineering involves a large international project, SoilTrEC, that brings together 30 research field sites around the world in order to study the production and degradation of soil. The project leader, Professor Steven Banwart, talks about the data that is produced in this project, and the challenges that geographically dispersed project poses to Research Data Management. He also discusses the importance of metadata and the openness of the project’s data.

Managing Research Data is a growing concern for universities. But we don’t know enough about how data is created, used and shared in different disciplines. This collection contains four case studies of research projects showing some of the ways researchers think about data and manage it. They are part of the RDMRose teaching materials, a Jisc-funded project that ran between 2012 and 2013. You can find a link to related learning materials on the videos.
