How do we talk about evidence synthesis with undergraduates? This brief presentation summarizes a 2023 workshop delivered to undergraduate students enrolled in a summer research experience. Students were introduced to the broad topic of evidence synthesis through a mixture of step-by-step explanation and examples borrowed from existing secondary research literature. Attendees were numerous yet takeaways were mixed. What went over well, what went wrong, and what ended up somewhere in between? This presentation will cover outreach strategies, topics discussed, questions asked, student takeaways, and lessons learned.
