Happy TERNSday!
We at TERN Education are keen to help you all learn how to critically appraise a paper. In order to do this we will be producing monthly ‘virtual’ journal club modules on RCEM Learning. It’s basically a critical appraisal paper that you can do in your own time during the month! It gives you the opportunity to practice and learn critical appraisal in a relaxed environment and you get a certificate for the old portfolio!
When you finish click the link to the forum to discuss this month’s paper with colleagues around the country.
