The education of students is one of the core elements leading to a persistent and sustainable culture change in research data management. T he keystone concept of data literacy needs to be taught systematically: the ability ability to read, understand, create, and communicate data.
The curricula of students of physics and adjacent topics have been a bone of contention for as long as the information revolution has shaken the way scientific discoveries are made. The chronically overburdened curricula have little space for additional material, and more likely than not, compromises on other subjects will have to be made and creative solutions will have to be found.
How can we, as a community, approach this challenge in a way that keeps intact our image of what it means to be a physicist, while at the same time equipping students to partake in the data revolution unimpeded?
