An Introduction to Cochrane Classmate: making Cochrane Crowd work for your students

This Cochrane Learning Live webinar introduced an exciting platform called Cochrane Classmate. Classmate enables people to set up tasks and learning activities for their students. It works alongside the Cochrane Crowd platform, harnessing the microtasks and microlearning available.

The session was primarily aimed at anyone involved with teaching or training in the area of evidence synthesis. It began with a presentation introducing both the Classmate and Crowd platforms. This was followed by a demonstration where the presenter showed just how easy it is to set up a Classmate activity for students.

The session was delivered in April 2024 and below you will find the videos from the webinar, together with the accompanying slides to download [PDF].
