DESCRIPTION:In general\, metadata is the descriptive information about your
  data. However\, what exactly is metadata and how much of it should be inc
 luded with your data? Good metadata can make up for human fallibilities. P
 eople forget and misplace things\, and leave research projects taking thei
 r knowledge of the research methodology and the data with them. Metadata e
 nsures that we will be able to find the data\, use it\, preserve and reuse
  it in the future.\n\nFinding Data. Metadata makes it much easier to find 
 relevant data. Most searches are done using text (like a Google search)\, 
 so formats like audio\, images\, and video are limited unless text metadat
 a is available. Metadata also makes text documents easier to find because 
 it explains exactly what the document is about.\nUsing Data. To use a data
 set\, researchers need to understand how the data is structured\, definiti
 ons of terms used\, how it was collected\, and how it should be read.\nReu
 sing Data. Researchers often want to reuse data collected for another proj
 ect for their own project. The data still needs to be found and used\, but
  often at a higher level of trust and understanding. Reusing data often re
 quires careful preservation and documentation of the metadata.\nThis means
  that the metadata provides additional information that helps data consume
 rs to better understand the meaning of the dataset\, its structure and to 
 clarify other issues\, such as rights and license terms\, the organization
  that generated the data\, data quality\, data access methods and the upda
 te schedule of datasets. Additionally\, metadata also gives information ab
 out the data in general. What an actual metadata file includes\, varies be
 tween disciplines and types of data you are working with. However\, the do
 cumentation for your data should contain the minimum information required 
 to be able to reuse (or understand) the data described. \n\nIn this lectur
 e\, we will be going over what metadata about your dataset should be inclu
 ded when you are sharing it. Additionally\, we will also go over some exam
 ples on how to write a good README file.
