Standardisierter Datenmanagementplan für die Bildungsforschung (Stamp) – Ein projektbegleitendes Tool für das Forschungsdatenmanagement

Empirical educational research is based on the collection and analysis of data. Standardized procedures and templates are needed to deal with the constantly increasing requirements for research data management. For this purpose, the collaborative project Domain-Data-Protocols for Empirical Educational Research (DDP-Bildung) developed the Stamp (Standardized Data Management Plan for Educational Research). The Stamp is based on the “Domain Data Protocol” concept of Science Europe and aims to promote the quality and reusability of research data. The Stamp was developed based on insights from the research data infrastructure as well as the needs and requirements of the research community. A central difference to classical data management plans is that the Stamp intuitively links information sources and illustrates subject-specific procedures in the form of practical examples while considering legal requirements. The Stamp provides support for scientific projects from the early planning phase to the collection and archiving of data. This paper describes the development process of the Stamp and presents its components.
