Change management

2. Change management & evidence-based practice - how can we improve "bedside" usage of EBHC? (Martin, Franz, & Jackie)

Tools for Teaching

THEME: Best tools for teaching evidence based practice - paper or electronic tools for EBHC
Facilitators: Fatma & Paul
Group members: Fatma, Paul, Carl Heneghan, ...
Purpose: to gather useful tools for teaching EBHC
Scope: The following are a possible but not complete set of tools.
A. CAT logbooks - both paper and electronic
B. CATbank tools (Martin's and Utrecht both have nice tools)
C. Critical appraisal sheets - from the User Guide, the GATE tool, and the RAMMbo sheets
D. Searching tutorials (online)
E. Slides of talks
etc

Related Themes: BestTeaching
Plans: As a baseline, we would like to compile a list of tools currently being used and any evaluations done of the tools.
For further development we would like to make "open source" any good tools and gather groups to work to improve these tools (perhaps setting up a Wiki for this purpose).
We would also like to identify any gaps and innovations as areas of future work.

EBHC Meeting Themes

We should try to select and develop the theme groups now so that leads and small working parties are developing this prior to the Sicily meeting. The face-to-face meeting in Sicily would then consolidate this work. Suggest themes so far are:

1. Best tools for teaching evidence based practice - paper or electronic tools for EBHC (Fatma & Paul)
2. Change management & evidence-based practice - how can we improve "bedside" usage of EBHC? (Martin, Franz, & Jackie)
3. EBP Curriculum (extending the Sicily statement) - how should the curriculum build over time? (Nino)
4. Evidence-Based Diagnosis (a missed link in EBP process?)
5. Methods of teaching & education - how do we find and share the best methods? (Madelon)
6. Improving and sharing assessment tools (for assessment of student learning) (Monica)
7. e-learning for EBHC - is it helpful and how can we develop? (James, plus Julie Hadley)
