Abstract
Information literacy teaching and learning for Master of Chiropractic students undertaking systematic reviews was re-envisioned from hybrid to fully online mode due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Collaboration with the academic unit convener informed design and development of appropriate online learning activities and assessment for student achievement of required learning outcomes. Using flipped classroom methodology, a pre-recorded lecture demonstrated research question formulation and advanced database search strategies. Tutorial activities were redesigned for Zoom delivery using breakout rooms to replicate the collaborative aspect of face-to-face tutorials. Learning was supported by a refreshed online research guide, research consultations, and emails. Consultations were delivered via Zoom upon request for more specific advice including question formulation, search terms, choosing appropriate research databases, and advanced database search techniques. Feedback and assessments were positive and review will inform future offerings.
