Reviewing research papers to develop research literacy
In the module Statistical Methods in Medical Research and Epidemiology, students are asked to review a paper from a medical statistics journal, summarise it and evaluate it for design of the study, statistical analysis and inference. This helps students to learn how to critically evaluate a case in medical statistics and to propose alternative approaches.
