Course objectives
The aim of this COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) course is to increase the knowledge about current research in Kinesiology and teach the students how to write a comprehensive systematic review in this field. At the end of this course, students will be able to define their research topic and design the methods of a systematic review.
Learning outcomes
Students are expected to work in international team step-by-step on one chosen review’ topic to gain experience with all the aspects of systematic review writing. COIL courses provide an international learning experience without the need of mobility and this course will interconnect students from FSpS MU and UNI Zagreb. The completion of the systematic review manuscript and its submission to a scientific journal would be encouraged but will require students’ effort on regular home works.
