The AHPA Research, Evaluation and Evidence Translation (REET) Committee is in its third year of running the Online Journal Club for AHPA members following its successful trial in 2020.
What is the AHPA Online Journal Club?
Internationally, online journal clubs are bringing health practitioners and researchers together for professional development without the limitations of geography.
What to expect whilst participanting in the Online Journal Club?
Participating in an online journal club is a great way to keep up to date with new practice and research in an area of interest, brush up on your critical appraisal skills, improve your public speaking and communication skills and collaborate with others.
The Online Journal Club meeting will be hosted online and facilitated by a member of the Online Journal Club working group. Before the meeting, a recent article from the Health Promotion Journal of Australia will be circulated for participants to read. During the meeting, participants will respond to questions posed by the facilitator, inquire about different aspects of the research design, critique the methods, and bring an enquiring mind (scepticism or praise) as to how this might inform your work in health promotion practice, policy or research.
