service at their university. Instruction style can vary as well with seminars, workshopsand stand-alone courses being used to teach RDM skills. Who teaches RDM can vary just asmuch as the audience: librarians teaching alone or in teams, librarian and faculty combinations,librarian and IT professionals, and any combination of the above including guest speakers. Often,there is preparatory work that may include interviews, laboratory reviews, surveys or other toolsthat aid in getting informative information to facilitate the work toward RDM instruction. Inorder to illustrate the benefits of the team approach to RDM instruction and the trend towardcredit classes, Table 1 compares the course type, date, instructor method, preparatory work andthe

recording of protocols and progress has been done via paper labnotebooks. With the popularity of the internet, many have been turning to electronicmeans to record their study data, though this does not imply that paper lab notebookshave been completely abandoned. In the beginning, many were making use of tools notnecessarily created for the sole use in laboratories, such as Microsoft Word, Evernote,Google Docs, or other means of recording notes online and/or via a computer.However, there proved to be a market for products used especially by those doingresearch on scientific fields and thus the electronic lab notebook was born. New YorkUniversity Abu Dhabi has a growing faculty specializing in STEM fields. As with anyother university, the STEM
