Week 14 – Research

Date: 12/15/17                         Rotation: Research                   Location: CUNY Urban Food Policy Institute

Activities / Assignments:

  • Met with preceptor and graduate student
  • Continued using data abstraction form for potential studies

Comments / Thoughts / What You Learned / Challenges: I continued to perform data abstractions and I gradually became more comfortable using the tool. Prior to meeting with my preceptor and the graduate student, I developed a list of questions about the tool to ensure I was using it properly, and also so that I could become more efficient and timely using it. Some of the categories were unclear to me, such as “Resource Utilization”, and I also felt that for some studies, the answers to the questions did not fit into any of the existing categories. We addressed these issues, and I continued to progress through the articles.
