Problem

The benefits of reflective writing include enabling you to learn from your experiences, develop understanding as to how your experiences relate to the wider academic context, allow you to demonstrate the inclusion of evidence-based practice and scholarly resources, and to assist you to present your ideas clearly and structure your writing logically. Before writing your reflective journals, please ensure you read Tanguay, E., Hanratty, P., Martin, B., 2020. Chapter 2: What is reflection and why is it important? In Reflective writing for nursing, health and social work. Macmillan Education Limited, London.
