Abstract
The documents contained in this collection are assignments, templates, and rubrics used for teaching the skills of evidence-based veterinary medicine in a 4-year veterinary professional program. They are grouped by unit within a semester, starting with the first semester of the first year of the program and ending with assignments used in the last clinical year on two different clinical rotations. The skills we focus on are writing PICO-style clinical questions, searching the biomedical literature for evidence, critically appraising evidence, and applying evidence to the clinical question.
