There are 2 sections to this the first part to describe the content in a Project Scenario-Document Perth! is a grant-funded local history project that collects born-digital home movies. You have been hired as the metadata professional on this project. Your role is to create the database and records describing the video assets the project has collected. In order to proceed with your part of the project, you need to set up some samples and get them approved by the project coordinator. The following decisions have already been made: DB/Textworks will be used as your software program (Data Technical Standard) Dublin Core will be used as your metadata standard (Data Structure and Content Standard) Gettys Art & Architecture Thesaurus will be used for subject access (Data Value Standard) A few preliminary acquisitions can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuraUpTEHkLIRmmmkddtbmw/playlists You do not have to work out the logistics associated with acquisition, selection, copyright, front-end display, and marketing. Other team members are in change or those areas. What to turn in: A single Word Document uploaded into Blackboard containing the following: 300 to 500 word executive summary aimed at the project coordinator DBText Data structure (textbase) 3 Dublin Core metadata records in XML Part 2-1. Use DB/TextWorks to create a data structure (textbase) (worth 15 points) Create a data structure that contains the information you wish to capture. The textbase should be based on Dublin Core Metadata. You will need to determine which metadata elements are necessary for describing a digital home videos. Marking will be based on: Choices make in designing the textbase Dublin Core (DC) elements used How DC-based fields are named **The textbase you print to turn in for this assessment MUST come from DBText. Using other sources will result in point deductions.** To relearn the basics of how to use DB/TextWorks, see the DBText 2018 How to Guide loaded in the Assessment 2 Folder in Assessment Info. The software is available in a zip file also in that folder to download and install on your own computers. 2. Create records for home video content (worth 15 points) Create metadata records describing the designated YouTube content using Dublin Core metadata principles, elements, and recommended vocabularies. . Describe home movies from the collection found on YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuraUpTEHkLIRmmmkddtbmw/playlists How well you use Dublin Core is a major component of this Assessment! Subject terms must come from the Gettys Art & Architecture Thesaurus. As you know from practicing Dublin Core, other fields have recommended vocabulariesyou will need to use those well as explained by Dublin Core. You can create as many records as you want, but only 3 records should be turned in for marking. If more than 3 records are turned in, only the first 3 will be reviewed and marked. Marks will also be deducted for not following directions. The records turned in should be in XML format. Records turned in without XML format will receive mark deductions. **The records you print/export to turn in for this assessment MUST come from DBText. Using other sources (like the automatic generator we play with in class activities) will result in point deductions.** 3. Executive summary (worth 10 points) The executive summary will appear first in the Word Document that is submitted to Blackboard. It should be between 300 to 500 words written in a professional tone. Marks for this section will be assessed on the presence and quality of the following items: Overview of the project to date related to what is being submitted Clear discussion of textbase design decisions Professional reflection on successes and challenges related to the content being described For an example of an executive summary, see page 112-113 of Grellier, J. & Goerke, V. (2014) Communications Toolkit. 3rd ed. Cengage Learning.
