This course focuses on learning how to conduct a meta-analysis via experiential learning, via ‘doing’ – the major activity of this course being for students to produce a draft of a publishable meta-analysis paper in their research area by the end of the semester. It represents a great opportunity for students to turn their literature reviews into publishable papers, allowing new insight from existing bodies of literature and for your students to refine their skills in applied statistics.  The course outline draft can be found here: http://animalbiosciences.uoguelph.ca/sites/default/files/ansc_6550_animal_science_meta_analysis_course_outline_final_draft.pdf [1]
