Info

Many of the people who attended the workshop also filled out an online questionnaire to enable feedback for the structure of the database and the fields. The questionnaire highlighted that the user community felt that the database functioned well, and that it was relatively easy to use. The level of presentation scored highly. Most people felt they would recommend the database to their colleagues and that it was very useful. 7.5 2009- IWAA workshop Following on from the International workshop, a further workshop was held for the IWAA members on the 17 th of November. This was to allow the Irish people to use the newest amended database version to provide feedback from the work they had completed with their user profiles. The structure of the database was outlined again (including recommended changes from the International workshop). The queries envisaged were discussed in more detail than was possible at the International workshop, aiming to see that we are covering as many questions as possible with the queries that we are developing. The two workshops allowed the WODAN database to be demonstrated by the creators and database designers to the intended user community. This allowed the database to be fully explained and provided a forum for people to ask various questions on its use and structure. The workshops also received essential feedback from the intended user community. This resulted in a considerable amount of adjustments to the database in order to make it more intuitive to the intended user community. As well as the workshops, some of the wood and charcoal specialists who would have a large personal archive dedicated time in the Discovery Programme offices populating the database with their own projects, to build up their MyWODAN archive (Susan Lyons, Ellen O’Carroll, Mary Dillon). 7.6 2010 Dissemination • February – poster presentation at Wetland Archaeology in Ireland and Beyond conference in UCD, Dublin. • September – flyer presentation at the EAA conference 2010 1-5 th September (The Hague, Netherlands). • September – poster presentation Meso 2010 (Santander, Spain) • October – presentation of a case study at Kilkenny Archaeological landscapes conference 40

During the morning, progress on the database was presented. A round table discussion meeting was then held. Items on the agenda of this meeting included requirements from the database, access policy, backlog of information, future collaboration and a publication plan. This meeting was very fruitful, offering some insights into dealing with the backlog of information possibly through PhD or masters students. Ownership of the data was also discussed in detail, along with possibilities for future funding for input of data. After the meeting, the participants were broken into groups and the database was demonstrated, with a particular emphasis on the queries now available. 7.8 Future dissemination • Publication plan (Section 6) • Presentation at the Vth International meeting of Anthracology in Spain, 2010. • Forthcoming lecture at Clontibret National School. • Forthcoming lecture for the Kilkenny beekeepers society. 41
