Just to make things more complicated, I'd like to introduce one more EBM web
site, developed by faculty from the Department of Emergency Medicine at
Emory University. I think the site offers several unique features. We have
attempted to closely integrate users guides and search/analysis tools into a
single format, permitting simultaneous search and analysis. In the future
we will be adding case scenarios demonstrating the relevance of EBM to our
target audience (Emergency and acute care physicians).
The site (EMAC) is located at: http://www.emory.edu/WHSC/MED/EMAC/home.html
Any and all feedback will be appreciated.

As someone who has been surfing sites for inclusion in our web site
(www.ebmny.org) as well as for use in training residents and students at my
own institution(SUNY HSC at Brooklyn), I have a similar response. Some
wonderful tutorial sites have appeared recently but the sheer volume can be
overwhelming to those venturing into this area. I like your idea of
beginning to try to organize these materials in a more definable and
accessible fashion and would be happy to try and participate in such an
activity.
Our New York based Evidence-based Medicine Committee, representing most
of the academic medical centers in New York City, has just established a
subcommittee on EBM curriculum for medical students whose goal is not very
different. We are meeting soon and I will introduce the idea of beginning
to define what we can do to bring web resources for teaching into a more
useful format. We are struggling with development of an assessment tool to
accompany a curriculum.
The issue of assessing what we accomplish in EBM workshops and on-site
teaching i challenging and difficult. A preliminary report of our
activities and experience with three New York EBM workshops since 1996
directed at faculty who teach and train internal medicine residents will be
appearing in Academic Medicine and a longer report is in preparation. We
can describe how many faculty we have trained, in how many institutions and
even describe the programs that have been put in place in the internal
medicine residency programs in New York as a result of these efforts. We
know how many people access our EBM webpage. However, we cannot describe
an impact on a medically relevant outcome and would be pleased to have a
venue to continue discussion of how such outcomes can be measured.
