Installing, updating and fixing data management tools can require specialized technical knowledge, at the sametime Finally, even if you hire an IT consultant, your team still needs to generally understand how the technology works. If there is no one on your team who is able to talk about how the technology works or what it should do, it will be very difficult to make sure that your IT consultants are doing what you hope they will do.

This is why, in addition to hiring consultants or services, you should train your staff to use, modify and fix your data management tools.

Data managment technology is important for any organizations

The presentation is very clear, concise, precise and easy to understand. Thank you very much

the program or system will be used is depend on the organization budget. size, used, requirements, kind of projects.

its important to have hard and soft copy of your data.

Data management Technology could be considered as the brain which will organize, store and assess the data collection , so as a result the technology has its role in the process of presenting these data in a professional way.
the final layout ( tables, graphics.. ) would be changeable according to the study updates , however, the access is another key to modify certain info or adjusting the contents.
Nowadays, the old tools are not anymore applicable, unless it is a high confidential info, nevertheless, these info has to be stored through technology into external hard drive, in order to be accessible easily.

In the Data Management Technology part of module 3 is a part, which particularly details about the data and its storage into the database. This is where the actual elements of data storage and personnel with technical know-how in handling the data are discussed. This is a part where I have learned that IT skills are needed in the order to manage the technology so as to upload and download the data.

In any circumstances, there is a need to have an IT expert to support technology supports. There is a critical need to provide back up files and put cyber security in place.

In any circumstances, there is a need to have an IT expert to support technology supports. There is a critical need to provide back up files and put cyber security in place.

With the growing technology, an organisation must have IT experts and staff that know the general operations of the IT systems so that when risks associated with data management systems occur, they can be effective tackled or many potential risks can be brainstormed in risk identification and assessment with effectiveness

technology in the world of data management is very important from the point of view of reduced processing time and its efficiency in data analysis. an organization must have a computerized data system if it wants to save time

I agree that staff should be onboarded on the technological tools to be used for data management, and they should have at least basic tech skills.

How do you prevent the digital base from being attacked by virus?

Microsoft excel is mostly used

Organizations should minimize relying on external it people and train more of their staff to manage and maintain their data base

data management involves a variety of interrelated functions. The primary technology used to deploy and administer databases is a database management system (DBMS), which is software that acts as an interface between the databases it controls and the database administrators, end users and applications that access them.

M&E officers must have good knowledge of data management system

important point taken home, to ensure that staff are as well trained on how they can handle the information system technologically.

In data management Installations are needful, updating the programs and drives and even fixing data management tools that require special technical knowledge of which incase of a gap it slows the whole process of reporting on time. though there is a need to train the workers that are within office as the external experts may not be reliable in times of a breakdown/technical failure in data management.
Even data security is maintained if an internal person is the the one to handle this data management technologies because the external person may not be reliable to an organization data.

The IT support part is the crucial components best data management and it's make more effective by maintenance, updating of the tools.

Data Management Technology is really very vital for the functioning of the organization and corporations. Therefore it allow organization to make essential sense of vast quantities of the data.

Data can be collected either using the analog or digital way, when using the analog it means that data is collected using papers and files and stored on physical cabinet, it is cheaper but also it restrict other users from different locations to access it and use it,on the other hand digital data can be accessed by all authorized persons even in different locations, data can be easily accessed and modified. It also allows alot of data to be collected without having alot of paper work, the disadvantages of using digital are it can be expensive to maintain and update software, it has be used by trained personnel and information can be leaked if the security is not tight

Hello I am Bakoyogo Francis from South Sudan, Africa. I'm 37 years, married. Working at the world Vision Intternationa. I have a great interest in knowing more about project management, especially M&E.
I hope the best for all.

Thank you am so interested

Data management is very important as the data collected should be organised, stored and be used

Hello, my name's Gildas

Hello, my name's Gildas

The terminologies help to get clear picture of data management

Everything is fine! The course is positive

Data management technology involves the digital means of storing, processing and analysing data. This can involve the use of a spreadsheet or other softwares depending on the experience of the data collection team.

One advantage of this is the ability to access data from anywhere, however it requires good security and expertise.

In my opinion, using digital methods for data management is the easiest and best way, because access is more flexible, fast, and easy. And for technical support, hiring internal staff or consultants is also the best way, because it will make the job easier.

As mentioned already, organizations will have to hire IT consultant in case there is a breakdown in the system which is off course expensive but if among their staff is one IT consultant then it manages the situation. Aside from introducing "inhouse", organizations should equally embrace what is known as periodic teaching/learning. it could be done quarterly. where staff are given a particular task which will enable them improve their skills on related aspect of work.

data that are been collected are supposed to be kept safe and confidential

data that are been collected are supposed to be kept safe and confidencial

it is really necessary for an team members in an organisation which is carrying out data collection to understand and know some data management technologies

Digital data managment is a vital component of efficient M & E system. While a strong data managment to easily store, organize and share data is important, it also requires critical technical skills in IT.

It is advisable to train your internal staff to level in which you want your work to done. Data security is key in an organisation, for it is the reason for that organsiation to move forward.

External staff or consultants should be needed when you need to buy other ideas to keep the program running smoothly. As their ideas may help. Even if you need to employ their services always, the interna staff should also work closely with them.

data management is very important to organization's success. without data management tech, it would be cumbersome for someone to analysis the data.

It is really expensive to rely on outsiders as technical experts of the organisation. There are some challenges here and these challenges include the following:

1. It will be hard to contact the expert and come on time especially when there is breakdown in the data system that needs to be fixed.
2. If the organisation is in remote area it will be difficult for the expert to reach on time at the station where his service is required.
3. In case if there is insecurity in the area in which the organization is operating the expert might not accept easily due to fear of insecurity and it will need the organisation now to provide maximum assurance to the expert.

This course is quite interesting. It has opened my eyes on many things and also broadened my knowledge, especially about data management. I believe that at the end of the program i will be able to apply data solutions to many problems.

Data management is really important and requires a wealth of computer knowledge to do. it is one of the most important parts of M&E

Technology has made things easier. Storing, organising and assessing data is very easy rather than using the paperwork and cabinet to store and assess data. Therefore an M&E team needs the technical know how to be able to use this technology.

Data Management Technology
Data management refers to the process and systems for storing, organizing and accessing data.
This ranges from having the data security where data can only be accessed and edit by staff with permission rights to the storing database. i.e. storage of data in simple spread sheets to the complex systems like the Microsoft SQL, Oracle database and MySQL.

I have a question, how can we link m&e with data science?

Depends on how well your organization is invested technology. SQL database can do, only that you need knowledge of the scripts. PBI in a data visualization application by Microsoft, it works with most databases. You will have to purchase for you enjoy it fully

Internal IT support staff is far more economical than external staff

The application of digital data management is highly essential for effective M&E.

can you imagine accomplishing a task of 4hours in 2hrs? that is so exciting and something everyone will want in order to accomplish a given task.
So also is data management technology which involves storing, organizing and accessing data using IT skills.
this technology helps an organization to easily and effectively upload and download data at anywhere provided you have the right soft and hard ware with the permission to access, this also makes it very easy to access, re-organized and prepare data for analysis.
however, the use of technology in managing data is expensive as it requires regular software updates and may be complicated to use hence requires the services of an expert and training of staff members.
despite all this, spreadsheet is a very simple tool to use

Data management should be an independent science within monitoring and evaluation and I need files on learning data management

Data management technology is very important in any organization because you would need to know something about the computer systems, how they operate and also how to fix any minor problem that you may encounter.

Data Management Technologies are almost like a requirement for most projects, especially for projects that generate lots of information from different or multiple interventions. Bringing the information together to a central location that facilitate easy access, use and updating is an essential feature for organizations.

Data is very sensitive and important to any organization, investing in a good data management system is crucial, organizations that deals with complex data can opt to use software such as Ms SQL, oracle cloud and My SQL while those that deals with less data can opt to use MS Excel.

Digital data management systems are more advantageous due to efficient data accessibility, data analysis and data reorganizing. Its important for organization to hire external consultant for managing data systems, however its also necessary that organizations invest to train their staff who can monitor management systems and track the work done by the consultants in ensuring they achieve their intended purpose.

Technology is making the work easy especially in data collection, analysis and making data driven decision.

Data Management technology in this modern world is so vital in the way that more this are now becoming digital and its becoming a must that a lot of data has to be easily accessible by most of people at one being at an organization. This reduces the risks on damaging data or losing some components on data

Installing, upgrading, and troubleshooting data management technologies may need specialist technical skills. As a result, even the most technologically advanced enterprises frequently rely on consultants or campanys to manage and upgrade some aspects of their IT systems. As a result, in addition to employing experts or services, you need teach your employees on how to use, change, and repair your data management systems.

Regarding to the fast advancing in technology, this issue of DMT is a very important thing for most organizations and data personnel's to understand. Now as we several software on the market for data management, it is best that knowledge and skills has to be acquired to maximize data management in our projects. having knowledge and skills on such platforms helps one to understand the type of platforms that will be suitable for the nature of the data that they use.

Data management technology are built on data management platforms and include a range of components and processes that work together to help you extract value from your data.

Data storage and management are associated with technology. They are a wide range of IT available for storing, organizing and accessing data.

The simplest tool for storing data in a spreadsheet. This is a digital table often created with software like Microsoft word we also have more complex databases which are web-based, meaning that data can be accessed and managed online, examples are Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle database and my SQL

Advantages, Data can be uploaded and downloaded from nearly anywhere, data can be easily accessed, and data can be reorganized. However, it has a disadvantage because it's expensive.

Data storage and management is associated with information technology (IT). Online data storage and manage is very efficient as data can be uploaded and downloaded from nearly anywhere, data can be easily accessed, data can be reorganized and data can be prepared for data analysis. However installing, updating and fixing data management tools can require specialized technical knowledge. This over-reliance on external consultants can be expensive and it also opens your organization up to some risks

I have always known data base management to be complex but I think i have understood the extent to which it is complex now

Thank you!

This module has just enriched my understanding of using technology when dealing with data, which also has its advantages and disadvantages

I have learnt a lot so far. I recommend digital data storage to most organisation because of the easy accessibility, its more safe not time consuming. Instead of hiring outside staff organisation need to train their staff on digital data storage since this will ensure maximum data security and the organisation will save money by not hiring external staff.

It is really important to have an internal personnel who is familiar wit your data management tools for a number of reasons:

1. there is a greater sense of ownership which means the data is likely to be much safer as it is well guarded.
2. it is cheap
3. in case of any problem they are easily available to assist.

Data management technology is the heart of M&E process.

in this 4th industrial revolution, data management technology is of crucial importance especially digital method because it is easy to access, re organize and prepare for analysis. it can be access from everywhere by more than one person at a time. it can also be uploaded or downloaded at any given point in time. unlike digital method, analog is mostly cheaper but old fashioned as it still uses paper and cabinets/shelfs to file. it waists more time and can be accessed only by a person who is physically by the filing cabinet

I think increasingly organisations opt for digitizing data collection/ data base, however I agree that in Bhutan till date to further improve on data technology capacitating staff in data management technology is imperative.

Installing, updating and fixing data management tools can require specialized technical knowledge. As a result, even the most technologically-savvy organizations often rely on consultants or companies to maintain and update some parts of their IT systems.

However, over-reliance on external consultants can be expensive. It also opens your organization up to some risks: if an element of your data management system breaks, will you be able to contact your IT consultant in time? Will they really understand what your organization needs to be able to do?

This module is an eye opener, giving me better understanding of what data is all about and key terms for tools and also other intensive soft ware than just Microsoft excel.

Exactly it has , moving us from analog system to the future which is coliating data electronically.

Proper data management is the future for every social impacts organization, is essential program managers make it a priority by constantly training their staffs on this software to for high level of productivity and relevance.

As evidently there are high risk of solely dependence on external technical support.

Not having a secure location to archive confidential data can have ethical implications. In some situations, if confidential information is accessed by or shared with the wrong individuals, it can compromise the safety of the individuals or groups described in the data.

The advantages of digital methods make it easier to compiles projects and can allow everyone involved to complete their task in time. As mentioned that with digital data can even be accessed simultaneously by everyone that need it, it can be arranged and organized by permitted people. But I also see a that it is very important to have a good IT system to make that all the work done is protected and real only permitted ones have access and as well as backup to retrieve loss work when ever needed.
Although ITs can be cost but it can save your work and time for bad days it they comes

for a project with small scale should consider the friendly data storage like excel spreadshee.

for a project with small scale should consider the friendly data storage like excel spreadsheet.

Managing data digitally is more efficient and effective than analog.

The importance of data management in every project can not be overemphasized. It is important that every team member should be technologically sound because analog data management is phasing out and every one should be concerned with up to date teams who can deliver and also save the cost of frequent hiring of IT consultants.

Data Management Technology involves technical know how of the technology. As a M&E it requires you to have basic IT knowledge.

Data can be uploaded and downloaded from nearly anywhere. Any person with the right software, hardware and account permissions can add new data or access existing data.
Data can be easily accessed. Unlike data on a sheet of paper, the same data can be accessed by multiple people simultaneously.
Data can be reorganized. All database solutions, whether they are a simple Excel spreadsheet or more complex software, allow you to sort and organize your data easily.
Data can be prepared for data analysis. Some data storage and management systems allow you to do data visualization and analysis directly in the software. Others make it easy to export data to data analysis software.

It is a very important tool for data collection and data management.

security and confidentiality is an important issue in tech use in data management.

Data management technology is very important for M&E however, it is adivsable to have a paper back up of important documents.

Data management technology is very important for M&E however, it is adivsable to have a paper back up of important documents. The type of data determines who has access. For example, financial data should only be available to the finance team.

Data Management Technology is very important as it make it easy to find your data when ever you need it. The way you arrange and mange data helps to save time as it easy to access data the more time saved and little time taken to complete a task. It is important to have IT that will help in protecting your data. There is a wide range of IT available for storing, organizing and accessing data. U singing a spreadsheet for storage of that is very simple, easy to understand and accessed by everyone and very clear.

After using a spreadsheet to store your data you can save it a online but use maybe a password so that only authorized people can access it. Everyone that has permission can even access it same time.

J'ai une question concerne utilisation des autres outils telle que SPSS, est ce qu'il y a autre outil plus facile

Understanding how to manage and store up data is really important. The tools for data storage is equally key, as to who access it and at what time.
I have learn how to manage and store up quality data.

Data management technology is a new component of M&E that is gradually being developed and will eventually take hold, given all the facilities it offers to insiders
