Managing the Educational Dataset Lifecycle with DataShop

  • Conference paper
Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED 2011)

Abstract

An ideal scenario for educational research is to perform an experiment, report and publish results, make the results and data available for verification, and finally allow the data to be used in follow up experiments or for secondary analyses. Unfortunately, this scenario often fails after the results are published. Researchers move on to new data and the old data may linger on a legacy server for a short while before disappearing or becoming impossible to comprehend. Managing the dataset lifecycle is a way to address this problem. DataShop (http://pslcdatashop.org) is a central hub for data management of educational data, and in this paper we show how DataShop fits into the dataset lifecycle.
