An innovative approach to developing the reflective skills of medical students

Metadata Updated: September 7, 2025

Background Development of the reflective skills of medical students is an acknowledged objective of medical education.

      Description
      Description of an educational exercise which uses an email-based process for developing the reflective skills of undergraduate medical students. Student quotations illustrate learning outcomes qualitatively.


      Discussion
      The process described is immediate, direct, linked to learning objectives, enables rapid responses to be given to the students individually, and is followed by group sharing of learning. It provides a rigorous and robust feedback loop for students. It is relatively economic for teachers and incidentally benefits curriculum design and evolution. The approach supports development of a reflective approach to learning.
