Im Jahr 2021 lädt die Initiative "Forschungsdatenmanagement" alle Mitarbeitenden der BBAW zu einer Veranstaltungsreihe mit dem Titel "Forschungsdatenmanagement kompakt" ein. Die Präsentationsfolien der ersten Online-Veranstaltung am 11.02.2021 führen in die Grundlagen und Grundbegriffe des Forschungsdatenmanagements ein und stellen die Ziele der Initiative vor.

Durch die zunehmende Digitalisierung nimmt die Bedeutung von Forschungsdaten in den Geisteswissenschaften, insbesondere in den Digital Humanities, zu. Dabei rücken in den letzten Jahren verstärkt Open Science-Paradigmen, wie der möglichst offene Zugang zu den Daten und die FAIR Data Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reuseable) in den Fokus. Diese bedeuten einen Paradigmenwechsel für Wissenschaftler*innen und Wissenschafts- und Gedächtnisinstitutionen und erfordern die Kooperation im Rahmen nationaler und internationaler Infrastrukturen. Zur Förderung guter Datenmanagementpraktiken verlangen verschiedene nationale und internationale Förderorganisationen bei Projektanträgen Auskunft über den Umgang mit nachgenutzten oder erstellten Forschungsdaten, z. B. in der Form von Datenmanagementplänen (DMPs). Inzwischen setzt sich die Erkenntnis durch, dass es nicht mit einem einmaligen Datenmanagementplan getan ist, sondern dass DMPs während des Projektverlaufs angepasst werden müssen, um das Forschungsdatenmanagement aktiv und unter Einbeziehung aller relevanten Stakeholder zu unterstützen und seine Potenziale auszuschöpfen (aktives Forschungsdatenmanagement). Hierfür wird im Rahmen eines DFG-Projekts das Werkzeug Research Data Management Organizer (RDMO) entwickelt. Der Vortrag gibt eine Einführung in die wichtigsten Begrifflichkeiten und Konzepte des geisteswissenschaftlichen Forschungsdatenmanagements und seine Bedeutung für die Sicherung der guten wissenschaftlichen Praxis, die Qualitätssicherung der Forschungsdaten und die Erhöhung des Impacts der Resultate digitaler geisteswissenschaftlicher Forschung und führt diesbezüglich in Funktionalitäten und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten des Werkzeugs RDMO ein. Präsentationsfolien für einen Vortrag im Rahmen des DH-Kolloquiums an der Berlin-Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (BBAW) am 02.08.2019.

Eine Präsentation der erreichten und anvisierten Ziele der Initiative „Forschungsdatenmanagement“ der Berlin-Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften von Reinhold Kliegl, Katja Marciniak und Alexander Czmiel (Stand: 24.02.2022).

This workshop will present the capabilities of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) to perform in-situ assessment of the protective properties of patinas, coatings or other protection systems on metallic cultural heritage. The workshop content is introductory to the technique, so no previous knowledge of electrochemical techniques is required. Students will be learn the fundamentals of the technique, its history and latest developments of in-situ measurements. The hands-on session will perform an EIS measurement on a real sculpture and interpret the results, and will focus on the practical implications and utility for conservation practice.

The Chair for the History of Technology at ETH Zurich has been using the search engine Opensenamticsearch as a shared search engine for historical sources, research literature and excerpts since 2018. In our presentation we will review the process that took several years and led to this implementation. We point out various surprises lurking in research projects that make digital research data and historical research interact in order to obtain meaningful data. We suggest that historians aim for research workflows and environments that are free for experiments, errors and exchange between researchers. Henrike Hoffmann, Moritz Mähr and Daniela Zetti are working with historical sources from various archives (Federal Archives Berne, University Archives Geneva, ETH Archive Zurich, PTT Archive Berne, CSCS Lugano). They deal with the issue on how the sources can be collected, analyzed, processed and made reusable. The sources are in German, French, Italian and English. They comprise documents that were written between 1960 and 2000. Most of the documents stem from public archives, some are publicly available, but a small number are within the protection period, i.e. accessibility is restricted. The research team is cooperating with technical, archival, legal and academic partners in Switzerland.

Phoebe Apperson Hearst měla velmi úspěšného vlastního syna Williama, který byl ale více jako jeho otec: tvrdý obchodník. Našla však jemnou, uměleckou duši v malíři Orrinu Peckovi (1860–1921), který byl údajně gay a který ji, ještě za života své vlastní matky, začal oslovovat „má druhá mámo.“ Na základě podrobného výzkumu jejich vzájemné korespondence v Peckově pozůstalosti se můžeme ptát, jak moc si byla progresivní, bohatá žena 19. století, jakou byla Phoebe Hearst, vědoma Peckovy sexuality a pokud ano, jestli s tím neměla problém, nebo šlo o nevyřčené tajemství mezi nimi? Jejich příběh představí historik umění Ladislav Zikmund-Lender. Phoebe Apperson Hearst had a very successful son of William, but he was more like his father: a tough businessman. However, she found a delicate, artistic soul in the painter Orrin Peck (1860–1921), who was allegedly gay and who, while still his own mother's life, began to address her as “my second mother.” Based on a detailed study of their correspondence in Peck's estate, we may ask how much a progressive, rich 19th-century woman like Phoebe Hearst was aware of Peck's sexuality, and if so, if she had no problem with it, or was it an unspoken secret between them? Their story will be presented by art historian Ladislav Zikmund-Lender.

Agencification phenomenon in the EU has led to concerns about controls over EU agencies’ actions. As the quantity and ‘quality’, i.e., strength of de jure powers, of EU agencies have grown in the last decades, so does the system of control over agencies show its development. The controls over all EU agencies with the de jure decision-making powers as well as the European Central Bank within the Single Supervisory Mechanism have been supported with the establishment of Boards of Appeal, which count 9 entities. Like with the agencification phenomenon however, the establishment and characteristics of the Boards vary greatly from agency to agency without clear indications as to why the differences (should) exist and what exact role and how much discretion (should) be given to the Boards. As this unclarities put the legitimacy of the system of controls of EU agencies under pressure, an attempt to build a common system of review of agency action by the Boards seems desirable. To contribute to this ultimate goal of our study, this chapter offers a historical overview of agencification and review of agency action in the EU, rationales behind the creation of agencies’ appeal bodies and an attempt of classification of different boards to enhance comprehension and development of a common system of review of agency action. For learning purposes, we look at the system of administrative review in the US. We base our analysis on relevant secondary legislation, such as agencies’ founding acts, rules of procedure, case-law in the EU and in the US and relevant academic literature.

Im Rahmen der Akademievorträge an brandenburgischen Schulen 2021/22 bot die Initiative "Forschungsdatenmanagement" den Schülerinnen und Schülern einen Einblick in die Themen Datenorganisation und -sicherung. Denn die Menge an digitalen Daten auf dieser Erde wächst täglich. Umso wichtiger ist das Management der eigenen Daten, um den Überblick zu behalten – privat, aber auch im Studium oder Berufsleben. In der Wissenschaftswelt geben die „Leitlinien zur Sicherung guter wissenschaftlicher Praxis“ den sorgsamen Umgang mit den sogenannten „Forschungsdaten“ sogar vor. In den Geistes- und Kulturwissenschaften versteht man unter dem Begriff alle Quellen/Materialien und Ergebnisse, die im Zusammenhang einer Forschungsfrage gesammelt, erzeugt, beschrieben und/oder ausgewertet werden. Wie geht man mit diesen Daten am besten um und welche Tipps und Tricks kann man sich hier für seine private Datenorganisation abschauen? Der Vortrag sensibilisiert für die Relevanz von Datenmanagement und gibt einen datenzentrierten Einblick in (geistes-)wissenschaftliche Forschungsprozesse.
