Evaluation of best practices in the design of online evidence-based practice instructional modules

New article: Foster, M., Shurtz, S. and Pepper, C. (2014) Evaluation of best practices in the design of online evidence-based practice instructional modules. Journal of the Medical Library Association, 102 (1), 31-40. The focus is on evaluating tutorials about critical thinking and evidence based practice. "By systematically collecting and evaluating instructional modules, the authors found many potentially useful elements for module creation. Also, by reviewing the limitations of the evaluated modules, the authors were able to anticipate and plan ways to overcome potential issues in module design." I think that some of the criticisms at the end apply to quite a lot of online tutorials related to information literacy ....
