“The Researching Health Short Cuts DVDs have been a great boost to my research sessions, upgrading basic research information and supporting higher level students with their research projects. The DVDs place research in a context that ‘keeps it real’, encouraging discussion and reaching students with a variety of learning styles. The review of the main points is particularly useful for applying new concepts to previous work and preparing students for future session.”
