Abstract
Objectives:
The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for CRG MEs and AMEs to informally discuss editorial processes and other related operational issues.
Description:
The first part will follow the format of a ‘Trivial pursuits’ game and will have participants competing individually to answer questions on the systems and processes to produce Cochrane reviews in a light-hearted and fun atmosphere. Contestants will earn pieces of ‘pie’ for each category of question answered, on such as topics on Archie, RevMan, Summary of Findings and DTA processes. We will include several controversial questions where more than one answer may be correct, but where there is only one officially correct answer. These will be discussed in more detail for better understanding of the reasons for the discrepancies. Prizes will be awarded. The second part will have no pre-set agenda – the agenda will be set by the MEs themselves on the day. This will enable discussion and participation across the group and also allow for any issues relating to theME/AME roles and to any aspect of the editorial process to be discussed. There will be an opportunity for participants to ‘post’ questions in advance of the workshop.
