Title of the session: Characterisation components
Topic/Aim(s) of the session:
Learning Outcomes (by the end of the session the attendees will be able to):
- Distinguish between different file types and identify the requirements for characterizing each.
- Carry out a number of identification and characterisation experiments on a number of example files.
- Critically evaluate a number of characterisation tools and advantages and disadvantages in different scenarios.
- Compare and contrast the differences in running a number of characterisation tools both stand-alone and within taverna workflows.
- Conduct in-depth analysis over large volumes of identification & characterisation data and find representative sample records for planning experiments
 | The intended learning outcomes should outline: • Knowledge and understanding • Intellectual skills • Practical skills • Transferable skills (Refer to Appendix A, Bloom's Taxonomy, in the training plan for the verbs to support the learning outcomes) |
