The use of expert practice to explore reflection
Nora O’Callaghan Nurse tutor, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, Dublin
This article describes an experience, drawn from clinical practice, which has been used to expand personal knowledge and enable self-reflection. Johns’ (1995) model of structured reflection provides an analysis of the practice experience. Carper’s (1978) four ways of knowing is used to discuss personal learning and development.
