"In this hands-on workshop you will learn how to efficiently search for, identify and evaluate Complementary & Alternative Medicine (CAM) information on the Web. We will begin by defining "alternative" and "complementary." How do we know what is "good" information about alternative medical traditions or complementary medicine practices? How will you avoid and teach others to be critical about fraudulent or exploitative information? You will learn about and use information resources that clarify and explain different CAM traditions. Web sites that provide warnings of dangerous practices, side effect, or complications are emphasized. We will concentrate on identifying CAM information published on the Web by credible sources - that is research supported or otherwise critically reviewed by knowledgeable conventional or CAM medicine researchers or practitioners." - OHIONET Course Description
