Clinical Feedback

BackgroundFeedback is an effective pedagogical tool in clinical teaching and learning, but the actual perception by learners of clinical feedback is often described as unsatisfactory. Unlike assessment feedback or teaching sessions, which often happen within protected time and space, clinical feedback is influenced by numerous clinical factors. Little is known about clinical teachers’ motivations to provide feedback in busy clinical settings. We aimed to investigate the motivations behind feedback being given in emergency departments (EDs).MethodsA qualitative analysis of semi-structured interview data was conducted between August 2015 and June 2016. Eighteen attending physicians were purposively sampled from three teaching hospital EDs in Taiwan. Data were thematically analysed, both inductively (from the data) and deductively (using self-determination theory (SDT)). Themes were mapped to the different motivation types identified by the SDT.Results and discussionDespite working in busy clinical settings, Taiwanese ED clinical teachers reported being motivated to provide feedback when they felt responsible for their learners, when they understood the importance of feedback (patient safety and partner building), or simply because they were committed to following a tradition of passing on their clinical knowledge to their juniors. Suggestions to facilitate the internalisation of external motivations are proposed.ConclusionsIn this qualitative study, motivations for clinical feedback were identified. Although the motivations are mostly extrinsic, the elicitation of internal motivation is possible once true satisfaction is fostered during the feedback-giving process. This understanding can be used to develop interventions to enable clinical feedback to be provided in a sustained manner.

Learning Space

In any nursing program, it is a challenge to foster an awareness of, and engagement with, the complexity and reality of nursing practice.  During their studies, nursing students have to learn the relevant underpinning theoretical knowledge for practice as well as develop their understanding of the role and responsibilities of the registered nurse in clinical settings. At a regional Australian university the Bachelor of Nursing is offered externally with the student cohort predominantly off-campus. There are significant challenges in providing opportunities to enhance learning (Henderson, Twentyman, Heel, & Lloyd, 2006) and to foster early professional engagement with the nursing community of practice (Andrew, McGuiness, Reid, & Corcoran, 2009; Elliot, Efron, Wright, & Martinelli, 2003; Morales-Mann & Kaitell, 2001) in a context for learning nursing knowledge and inter-professional collaborative practice. This paper presents the results of a series of internal audits of students’ feedback of the Charles Darwin Hospital (CDU) vHospital™ undertaken from 2008 to 2010, following integration into theory and clinical nursing subjects in the Bachelor of Nursing program.  The feedback from students demonstrates the value students place on teaching and learning activities that provide realistic situated learning opportunities (Hercelinskyj & McEwan, 2011).

Abstract Background Consistent formative feedback is cornerstone to competency-by-design programs and evidence-based approaches to teaching and learning processes. There has been no published research investigating feedback from residents’ perspectives. We explored the value residents place on feedback in routine operating room settings, their experiences, and understanding of the role of feedback in their training and developing professional identity. Methods Interpretive phenomenological analysis of residents’ experiences with feedback received in clinical settings involved two focus groups with 14 anesthesia residents at two time points. Analysis was completed in the context of a teaching hospital adapting to new practices to align with nationally mandated clinical competencies. Focus group conversations were transcribed and interpreted through the lens of a social constructivist approach to learning as a dynamic inter- and intra-personal process, and evidence-based assessment standards set by the International Test Commission (ITC). Results Residents described high quality feedback as consistent, effortful, understanding of residents’ thought processes, and containing actionable advice for improvement. These qualities of effective evaluation were equally imperative for informal and formal evaluations. Residents commented that highest quality feedback was received informally, and formal evaluations often lacked what they needed for their professional development. Conclusion Residents have a deep sense of what promotes their learning. Structured feedback tools were seen positively, although the most important determinants of their impact were faculty feedback- and broader evaluation-skills and motivations for both formal and informal feedback loops.
