The third year clerkship is an exciting yet challenging time for medical students (Cooke, Irby, & O'Brien, 2010). For the first time, students spend significant time in clinical settings (e.g., hospitals) assisting in the daily care of patients. Obtaining just-in-time and at point-of-care information and resources (Author, 2009) is one…

The importance of school counselor site supervisor training has gained considerable attention in the past couple of years; however, despite these efforts, little progress seems to have been made. This study explores school counselor site supervisors' perceptions of preparedness, training needs, and preferred methods of future training. Results of…

This edited volume offers a range of insights about, practices of and findings associated with enrichening health and social care students' learning by their engagement in educational processes during and after the completion of their practicum experiences in health and social care settings.

The purpose of this study was to explore reasoning tasks in clinical practice during patient admission review. The authors used a constant comparative approach--an iterative and inductive process of…

Clinical workplaces offer postgraduate trainees a wealth of opportunities to learn from experience. To promote deliberate and meaningful learning self-regulated learning skills are foundational. We explored trainees' learning activities related to patient encounters to better understand what aspects of self-regulated learning contribute to…
