TERMINOLOGY 3

[ELIXIR] Nodes Training materials [Training] packages [Training] workflows [Training] events Content providers Current Terminology in TeSS 4

What Users Want? Current termMeaningWhat users want? Content providerOrganizations that provide training material, e.g. nodes' institutions, portals (such as GOBLET), foundation organisations (such as Software and Data Carpentry), etc. Content providers Training materialA link to an actual training resource existing on the Web, such as a Web page, text, presentation, video, document, dataset, course, etc. together with a description and other meta information. Material PackageA collection of training materials that share a common purpose, for example course material. Package WorkflowA step-by-step breakdown of typical stages of some kind of analysis (e.g., a protein sequence analysis, structure analysis, …). Each node in the workflow represents an analysis step and links to the relevant training resources Workflow EventA link to an event relevant to training, a meeting, workshop or a course (event not material!). Event What is missing? ?? 5

METADATA 6

Metadata in TeSS All extra (meta) information we collect about entities in TeSS Some metadata are free-text; for others we need to agree on vocabularies/ontologies We will now cover metadata for: Content providers Training materials Packages Workflows Metadata for events: To be covered in the last session 7

SUMMARY 16

What the TeSS Team Want? Agreement on terminology Agreement on metadata and vocabularies People to be proactive about inclusion of their materials in TeSS: Contact us with your training pages Even better, provide us with your API People to test/play with TeSS and come back with feedback, bug reports and ideas 17
