Activity
WorkshopDescription
In the health professions education literature, we have observed a growing interest in scoping reviews as a key approach for knowledge synthesis. We have a particular interest in simulation-based education in healthcare and have designed the workshop drawing on examples from this context.In the workshop, participants will gain an in-depth understanding of key components of scoping reviews, including rationale, theoretical and practical considerations.
By the end of this workshop, attendees will be able to: Describe the rationale for undertaking a scoping review, Outline steps to undertake a scoping review including the what, why, how and with whom, Review theoretical and practical
considerations in each step of a scoping review
