Coordinating Reviews of Scientific Research

Greetings from the MLSIG of ASCILITE. The group is considering  undertaking a review of mobile learning research. Members with a medical background suggested registering this with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews, better known as (PROSPERO), or the Campbell Collaboration. The idea is to prevent duplication of effort and foster collaboration. It will be interesting to see how this works. 

The review process in medicine it appears to be a far more systematic process, using tools to search for articles, recording which were considered relevant, but also which were not.
