Date: Wednesday, July 14th, 2021
Time: 1:00- 3:00 (+ pre-class work)
Location: Online (Quercus + Blackboard Collaborate)
This workshop follows a flipped-classroom model, which means there is pre-class work (30-40min) that is required to be completed before joining us online for class. This pre-class work will be available in Quercus one week prior to class.
Learning Objectives (pre-class work and online class). Building on the structured approach we practiced in Part 1, in this hands-on workshop students will:
- Review Medline strategy from Part 1 and prepare it for translation
- Delve deeper into the advanced features of interfaces and databases which allow for editing and refining a search strategy
- Translate and execute structured search strategies using different databases, including OVID Embase, and Ebsco CINAHL
- Prepare database search strategies and compose search methods, such that they can be repeated and to ensure proper reporting
Expectations of Participants:
- Join the Quercus site (you will be added to site after registration)
- Complete the pre-class survey (in Quercus)
- Complete the pre-class work (in Quercus)
- Attend the live class ready to participate in discussions and activities (BB Collaborate)
- Complete the post-class evaluation (in Quercus)
