SUMMARY:🏆Blueprint for Evidence: Protocol Writing for Systematic & Scoping Reviews
DESCRIPTION:\nWant to start a systematic or scoping review\, but not sure 
 how to begin? This 60-minute session will help you build a strong 
 foundation by focusing on the most important first step: your protocol. 
 Protocols are essential for ensuring transparency\, consistency\, and 
 credibility in evidence synthesis projects—and they're increasingly 
 required by journals and registries like PROSPERO. In this workshop\, 
 we’ll walk through the key components of a protocol\, highlight freely 
 available templates and tools (such as PRISMA-P)\, and discuss when\, why\, 
 and how to register your protocol with platforms like PROSPERO and OSF. 
 Whether you’re working independently or with a team\, this session will 
 help you move from idea to an actionable plan with clarity and confidence. 
 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBy the end of this class\, participants will be able to: 
 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n	\n	Describe the purpose and value of a protocol in 
 evidence synthesis\, including how it contributes to transparency and 
 reduces bias. \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	Differentiate between protocols for 
 systematic reviews and scoping reviews\, including key structural 
 similarities and differences. \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	Identify the key elements 
 of a protocol\, using tools such as the PRISMA-P checklist and JBI 
 guidance. \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	Locate\, evaluate\, and understand the 
 requirements of protocol registries\, including PROSPERO\, Open Science 
 Framework (OSF)\, and relevant journals. \n	\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n	Draft or refine 
 a preliminary protocol outline\, including a clear research question\, 
 inclusion/exclusion criteria\, and planned search strategy—ready for 
 potential registration with PROSPERO or other platforms. \n	\n\n\n\n\n 
 \n\n\n\nThis class is ideal for anyone new to evidence synthesis\, 
 including researchers\, students\, and clinicians who are looking to 
 strengthen their ability to conduct systematic reviews or other types of 
 evidence synthesis. Whether you're beginning a review or refining your 
 skills\, this session will provide the necessary tools to help you get 
 started with evidence-based research. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFormat: 
 \nLecture-style presentation with opportunities for discussion and Q&A.
