Successful journal clubs have a long-term overarching
goal [Deenadayalan et al., 2008].
The goal of this teaching literature club is, by reading and discussing the literature on teaching, to become a better teachers
The schedule above shows when the meetings are :-)
Papers will be scheduled ahead of time, ideally at least one month in advance.
Because no need for it is felt yet. You are encouraged to volunteer to maintain one :-)
When you show up at a meeting, someone has prepared to discuss a paper or book chapter. This paper or book chapter is announced on this website, ideally at least one month in advance.
The person having picked the reading material determines freely:
- whether there is a presentation about the reading material
- how to lead a discussion on the reading material
Yes.
Yes.
There is a chance the literature club has been cancelled, if, for example, there are zero attendees at the starting time.
Yes.
Yes.
Great!
First, we need to know, so we can put you in the schedule and share the reading materials one meeting in advance with the rest.
To let us know: create an Issue here or send an email to [email protected].
Second, on the day you discuss a paper or book chapter, you may determine freely:
- whether there is a presentation about the reading material
- how to lead a discussion on the reading material
The meeting will end sharply on time!
Create an Issue here or send an email to [email protected].
Elin and Richel will always have a paper to be discussed ready.
NBIS is a national organisation throughout Sweden, hence online is the norm.
We felt it was reasonable to start online-only first. Hybrid meetings are more complex, but we can imagine we go hybrid one day, when groups in different cities start gathering.
NBIS is a national organisation throughout Sweden, so meeting in real life (in any one place) would exclude most of NBIS.
A successful journal club meets at
regular and predictable intervals [Deenadayalan et al., 2008].
For this club, we felt that monthly is a reasonable starting frequency. If the schedule starts overflowing, we will consider doing this every two weeks.
Within an effective journal club it is clear who
(singular or plural) leads it [Deenadayalan et al., 2008].
Currently, Richel is chairman and Elin is vice chairman.
Because this is the current plan.
There are points we feel we can deviate from the literature:
- In this club, attendance is not expected and not recorded and not mandatory
(instead of the advice to have attendance expected and/or recorded
and/or mandatory
[Deenadayalan et al., 2008]). We feel this does not fit the NBIS life of flexible schedule
You can share your feedback at this repository by:
- creating an Issue: this results in a public discussion and require a GitHub account
- sending an email to
[email protected] - share your feedback in the next round: a round of collection of feedback is planned in November, i.e. after the third meeting. These results will probably be shared in December, i.e. during the fourth meeting.
