  • 1.  Announcing a new Campbell Collaboration Systematic Review online course

    Posted Apr 04, 2023 09:21 AM
    Hi everyone,

    I'd like to share that a new online course is now available on systematic reviews and meta-analysis. This is a self-paced, asynchronous course covering the entire process of systematic reviews from problem formulation to meta-analysis, designed with Campbell Collaboration researchers in mind, but appropriate for anyone interested in learning rigorous review methods for the social sciences. Unit 3, on information retrieval and searching, was co-authored by our very own Zahra Premi, myself and Mark Engelbert of 3ie.

    The course is currently being offered for free and learners may be solicited for feedback, as we are trying to continually update and improve the course.

    Please check it out and feel free to refer your review teams to this new resource!


    Best,

    Sarah
