CERIC Accelerates Core Academic Skills Development

Engage with Research Papers Quickly and Effectively

Improve your critical reading skills for research articles and those of your students using the evidence-based CERIC approach (Claim, Evidence, Reasoning, Implications, and Context) that focuses on identifying and evaluating the main arguments in a research paper. The CERIC method helps readers efficiently and effectively read primary research and improves writing, critique, and peer review.

Professional Development Solutions

Instructors And Early Career Researchers

Many instructors learned critical reading skills for research articles through trial and error. It works but is not the most effective way to teach these essential skills. We love working with instructors one-on-one and developing custom professional development series for groups of instructors who want to level up for their students and their own research.
