This research reports on the NICE Evidence search (ES) student champion scheme (SCS) first five years of activity (2011-2016) in terms of its impact on health care undergraduate students' information search skills and search confidence.
A review of students' evaluation of the scheme was carried out to chart the changes in attitude towards NICE Evidence search as an online health care information source and to monitor students' approach to information seeking.
This study is based on the results of questionnaires distributed to students before and after attending a training session on NICE Evidence search delivered by their own peers. The exercise was implemented in health related universities in England over a period of five consecutive academic years.
(i) Students' search confidence improved considerably after the training; (ii) ES was perceived as being an increasingly useful resource of evidence based information for their studies; (iii) the training helped students develop discerning search skills and use evidence based information sources more consistently and critically.
The NICE SCS improves confidence in approaching information tasks amongst health care undergraduate students. Future developments could involve offering the training at the onset of a course of study and adopting online delivery formats to expand its geographical reach.
本研究报告介绍了 NICE 证据检索（ES）学生冠军计划（SCS）在过去五年（2011-2016 年）中的活动情况，主要涉及该计划对医科本科生信息检索技能和检索信心的影响。
对该计划的学生评估进行了回顾，以了解学生对 NICE 证据检索作为在线医疗信息资源的态度变化，并监测学生的信息检索方法。
本研究基于在英格兰的几所与健康相关的大学中实施的一项问卷调查结果，该调查在五年的连续五个学年中对学生进行了 NICE 证据检索培训前和培训后的问卷调查。
（i）学生在培训后搜索信心有了显著提高；（ii）ES 被认为是他们学习中越来越有用的循证信息资源；（iii）培训帮助学生培养了有辨别力的搜索技能，并更一致和批判性地使用循证信息资源。
NICE SCS 提高了医科本科生处理信息任务的信心。未来的发展可能包括在学习课程开始时提供培训，并采用在线交付格式来扩大其地理覆盖范围。
