Use the Materials

To directly access the Data Nuggets activities, visit the  Resources page from the main menu.


Ask a Question

There are forums where threaded discussions are going on.  They are moderated.  Check out the discussion and join in!


Work with Collections of Related Materials

Collections are a quick, easy, and visual way to archive and share materials with users (think Pinterest).  On QUBES Hub, you can follow existing collection of materials related to the Data Nuggets project, add to an existing collection, or create your own collection.

Related materials can include links to the original research paper, books on technology and education, and software of relevant topics and processes.

To be notified when new posts are made to a collection you can "follow" it by clicking on the "Follow" button in the upper right hand corner of the collection.  New posts will show up in your Dashboard's live Collections feed.

For more information on adding to existing collections or starting your own collection, go to the QUBES Hub wiki 


Create a Collaborative Workspace

Projects are collaborative workspaces that facilitate file sharing and group work.  Projects feature  a variety of functions that support group work, including a to-do list management that allows users to assign tasks to group members.  Start a project in the Data Nuggets group  here


Create a Nugget Based on Your Own Scientific Data

 Create your nugget through the data nugget's website and then share it as a resource in the group! 


Share Your Customized Modules with Other Interested Faculty

Resources are a formal way to share and archive finished products with users.  Resources keep track of a lot of analytics that could be useful, such as # of downloads, ratings and reviews, people can ask questions, etc.  use the "Start a Contribution" link inside  Resources to submit your found resources.
