# The importance of RDM {#importance}
*Estimated time: 70 minutes*
During this module we will share different perspectives and let you discuss with each other about the importance of RDM in ensuring research reproducibility. At the end of this module you should be able to:
- Recognise the importance of research data management
- Explain why RDM is relevant for reproducibility and re-use of data
::: callout-important
## Activities before class 1!
- Watch the Presentation on 'Why is RDM important'?
- Read [@markowetz2015]: Five selfish reasons to work reproducibly OR [Watch the presentation](https://youtu.be/1Y_oIjlH-yg?t=355) (50 min)
- Set up a GitHub account and create an issue (see [Assignment 1](https://estherplomp.github.io/TNW-RDM-101/03-Assignment-GitHub-1.html))

## Why care about RDM?
Why should you be aware of your Research Data Management?

Reflect about what you heard on the video and bring your thoughts and your horror stories to **session 1**.
You can also listen to the [Data Horror Song](https://twitter.com/rafamoral/status/1571622591219236864) or the [Zheng Lab - Bad Project video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fl4L4M8m4d0) for some inspiration!

## Selfish reasons to work reproducibly
Read [@markowetz2015]: Five selfish reasons to work reproducibly OR [Watch the presentation](https://youtu.be/1Y_oIjlH-yg?t=355) (50 min) **before class 1**
## Optional activities
