Course audit-Stats350

Audit for openness of course or resource = Course Audit of Stats 350 =

Course Content

 * lots of powerpoints and other documents
 * a few videos to demonstrate software

Copyright Concerns

 * Where are the datasets from?
 * There is some clip art in the pdf files.
 * Spectronics manual in general resources?
 * There are many clip art type images in the lecture .pdfs

Privacy Concerns

 * Nothing.

Technical Concerns

 * They use SPSS, which is proprietary. See if they can use PSPP (http://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/)
 * They also use R, which is Free/Open Source Software: http://www.r-project.org/

Level of Editing Needed

 * Not terribly much.

Level of Publishing Needed

 * With all of the datasets and such, probably the same level as SI 508 (https://open.umich.edu/education/si/si508-fall2008)

dScribe Method Recommendation

 * Student dScribe who is in the course, taking notes on the provenance of images while the prof is giving the lecture.
 * Probably some staff time to make sure the videos, datasets, etc are handled correctly.

Training Requirements

 * Train dScribe on very very basic copyright and mostly just on what is the important provenance information

Next Steps

 * Nothing right now.
