The skill to read research literature critically belongs in every university
graduate’s toolbox. I have attempted to teach this skill in
a master’s degree level course in programming languages over
15 years using, at various times, simulated conferences, voluntary
reading exercises, evidence-based practice training, and a flipped
classroom with mandatory reading assignments. I discuss my experience
and analyze preliminary qualitative data on the use of
evidence-based practice and a flipped classroom for this purpose. I
present no firm conclusions, but expect that future work (by me or
others) will be able to use my experience as a baseline for better
teaching of research literature reading.
