Jumping Into Born Digital: Working with the born digital materials of the Science Education
Curriculum Collection
Krystal Thomas and Timothy Kanke
Friday, May 9, 2014
![Page 2: Thomas_Kanke_SFA_2014_prez](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071816/55aaf1981a28abce188b461a/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Why?
• SAA Jump In Initiative held in 2013 was the catalyst
• Involvement of the donor through an addition to the collection
• These materials are ticking time bombs for data loss
• Interesting materials and problems – not your usual straight forward born digital files

Science Education Curriculum Collection
• Documents the creation and development of science teaching materials produced by FSU’s science education program from the 1960s until 2005.
• The Interactive Media Science (IMS) projects were specifically the focus of our survey

Questions to Start With…
• What do we actually have?
– Physically
– Digitally
• How we access these materials?
• Do we have what we need access these materials?
• How are the physical items stored?

• Apple IIGS and Macintosh G3 systems along with external hard drives are not included in TB estimate

New Questions
• What are we preserving?
–Pedagogy
–Historical computer code
–Gaming experience
• How do we access the digital items?

Next Steps
• Procure resources for data transfer
• Organize the collection for future retrieval
– Digital library modules
• Explore avenues for access
– Emulation
