……what is important to me
■ Share your individual knowledge and experiences with others; build your own
study groups, learn and practice together to discuss evidence-based arguments
■ Ask questions especially the dumb ones – you wont be the only one that doesn't
know the answer
■ Use resources material as a starting point for your own research– explore the
open literature but don’t get distracted (develop your individual strategy on how
to search the web for relevant informatio
