Background

Emerging synthesis methods such as scoping reviews, mapping reviews and evidence and gap maps have been proposed as alternative synthesis approaches and are now a popular fixture within the research ecosystem. These ‘big picture’ reviews complement systematic reviews by responding to open-framed research questions and map the available evidence that decision-makers and researchers value. Big picture reviews can examine how research is conducted on a certain topic or field, clarify concepts/definitions, identify research gaps, or links between concepts and characteristics in relation to a field thus improving clarity for those conducting research. This serves the research and policy-making community well as it allows for the identification of research gaps in an evidence-informed manner, allows for an assessment of the available literature, and often provides an interactive online table which can be publicly available. However, like the continually evolving methods for systematic reviews, big picture reviews are experiencing growing pains and there is a need for more education on differentiating between these review types and how to conduct and report them.

Aim

The aim of this workshop is for participants to have an appreciation of the value and role of big picture reviews within the evidence ecosystem.

Objectives

The objective of this workshop is to enable participants to understand the role, value and differences and challenges between big picture reviews and apply these to request for evidence synthesis services.

The scoping review master class will enable participants to gain a deeper understanding on scoping reviews most challenges areas.

Learning outcomes

In this course participants will be enabled to:

  • Understand the role and value big picture reviews have within the evidence ecosystem.
  • Understand the differences between each big picture reviews.
  • The challenges of conducting big picture reviews.
  • An in-depth understanding of how to conduct scoping reviews

Teaching strategies

The workshop will consist of a mixture of short teacher-led presentations which describe the concepts for each learning outcome, and then followed up with an interactive activity such as a discussion or group work. The number of participants for the course is limited to 30 to allow for small group work.

Facilitator 

Dr Danielle Pollock, Research Fellow, Health Evidence Synthesis, Recommendations and Impact, School of Public Health, The University of Adelaide

Dr Danielle Pollock loves big picture reviews and wants more people to know how to do them (when they are needed). Danielle enjoys breaking down the purpose, and how to conduct and report big reviews through infographics, YouTube videos, and the occasional Instagram reel. Danielle has led numerous guidance in scoping reviews, such as how to extract, analyse and present findings and how to include knowledge users in scoping reviews. She has developed the JBI Scoping Review Network is actively involved in the JBI Scoping Review methodology group and GIN ANZ working group.
