Abstract

Reflective writing (RW) is a popular tool in medical education, but it is being used in ways that fail to maximize its potential. Literature in the field focuses on why RW is used - that is to develop, assess, and remediate learner competencies - but less so on how to use it effectively. The emerging literature on how to integrate RW in medical education is haphazard, scattered and, at times, reductionist. We need a synthesis to translate this literature into cohesive strategies for medical educators using RW in a variety of contexts. These 12 tips offer guidelines for the principles and practices of using RW in medical education. This synthesis aims to support more strategic and meaningful integration of RW in medical education.

在医学教育中最大限度发挥反思性写作潜力的十二条建议。

反思性写作（RW）是医学教育中的一种常用工具，但其使用方式却未能最大限度地发挥其潜力。该领域的文献主要关注为什么使用反思性写作--即培养、评估和补救学习者的能力--但较少关注如何有效地使用反思性写作。关于如何在医学教育中整合 RW 的新兴文献杂乱、分散，有时甚至是还原论的。我们需要一份综述，将这些文献转化为有凝聚力的策略，供医学教育工作者在各种情况下使用RW。这12条建议为在医学教育中使用RW的原则和实践提供了指导。本综述旨在支持在医学教育中更有策略、更有意义地整合 RW。

期刊介绍： Medical Teacher provides accounts of new teaching methods, guidance on structuring courses and assessing achievement, and serves as a forum for communication between medical teachers and those involved in general education. In particular, the journal recognizes the problems teachers have in keeping up-to-date with the developments in educational methods that lead to more effective teaching and learning at a time when the content of the curriculum—from medical procedures to policy changes in health care provision—is also changing. The journal features reports of innovation and research in medical education, case studies, survey articles, practical guidelines, reviews of current literature and book reviews. All articles are peer reviewed.
