What is OceanTeacher?“OceanTeacher is an online system which provides training tools
for data and information exchange for ocean science.”
These tools are used during
IODE Training Courses but can
also be used for self training
and continuous professional
development.

Why Marine Biodiversity Data Management?
Monitoring of biodiversity has been considered necessary for assessing the health of ecosystems.

Why Marine Biodiversity Data Management?
There is poor knowledge on marine biodiversity, considering the size of oceans.

Why Marine Biodiversity Data Management?
Marine scientists are generally poorly informed about data centres and information management procedures.

Why Marine Biodiversity Data Management?
Marine biologists are willing to share their knowledge with others over the internet.

1. Structuring the field of Marine Biodiversity Data Management
Structure = Table of Contents = Curriculum of a courseWhy structuring?
Topic of Marine Biodiversity Data Management is not covered yet
in OceanTeacher, thus no curriculum exists
Structure gives user/student an overview of all contents
To facilitate browsing and editing
Consistency with other, already structured, courses of
OceanTeacher
Without structure, training material cannot be used

2. Are the available Marine Biodiversity Data Management training material useful?
• There is a need for training material for Marine Biodiversity Data Management.
• Material from previous courses are available but need to be evaluated whether they can be used in future courses.
• Existing material can serve as a starting point, a basis for future creation of more.
