SUMMARY:Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Deep Dive
DESCRIPTION:Join us on January 12-15\, 10am - 3pm ET for the activity-based 
 Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Deep Dive!\n\nDuring this 4-day 
 workshop participants will become familiar with the major required steps of 
 this research method\, practice relevant skills\, and consider the many 
 decisions that must be made when conducting a successful comprehensive 
 review and synthesis.\n\nYou are welcome to bring a systematic review 
 and/or meta-analysis that your team is pursuing (or plans to pursue) to 
 work on throughout the week. However\, if you don’t already have a 
 project in mind\, we’ll provide examples for you to practice 
 with.\n\nAudience: Participants are expected to have a basic understanding 
 of the systematic review process as outlined by the sections of our library 
 guide (guides.lib.vt.edu/SRMA/). Affiliation with Virginia Tech is not 
 required.\n\nAccess: The event will be held online\; a Zoom link will be 
 shared the week before the workshop via email. Participants will receive 
 full recordings of only days during which they participate. 
 Instruction-only recordings will be posted on our library guide 
 (guides.lib.vt.edu/SRMA/help) later in the year. Recordings from past years 
 are available now. This workshop has a waitlist every year so please only 
 sign up if you plan to participate.\n\nTime: ​​​​​​​This 
 hands-on workshop will take place on January 12-15\, 10am - 3pm ET with a 
 1-hour lunch break from 12 - 1pm ET. You must be able to attend the first 
 three days (January 12\, 13\, and 14) to participate. The fourth day 
 (January 15) is optional for those interested in learning about 
 meta-analyses.\n\nPre-workshop assignment: The week before the workshop\, 
 you will be asked to view a brief (~20 minute) video introduction to the 
 Systematic Review process\, the PRISMA (prisma-statement.org) checklist\, 
 and 1 - 2 systematic review article(s). We provide this preliminary 
 information so you can familiarize yourself with this type of research and 
 are able to get the most out of the activities and discussions.\n\nCredit: 
 Upon completion of the workshop\, Virginia Tech affiliates will have the 
 option to apply these 12-16 hours toward PDN credit. \n\nIf this event is 
 of interest to you but you are not familiar with the basics of systematic 
 reviews or evidence synthesis\, we encourage you to check out recordings 
 from our Evidence Synthesis Basics Series on our Library Guide 
 (guides.lib.vt.edu/SRMA/Help). If you are interested in other kinds of 
 support\, such as classroom instruction or group/individual consultation\, 
 please reach out to us directly at srconsultation-g@vt.edu\n\nIf you are an 
 individual with a disability and desire an accommodation\, welcome! Please 
 email library-event-accessibility@groups.office365.vt.edu at least 10 days 
 prior to the event.
