title: Reflections on reflective practice.
abstract: In recent years, a wide range of professions have adopted 'reflective practice' as an approach to professional development, and many professions have made it a mandatory dimension of their membership credentialling process. Despite the fact that it has been widely taken up in the professional world, there are many different conceptualizations and ideas about what it is. In this paper, six theoretical underpinnings of reflective practice are considered, and suggestions are made about how we can begin to incorporate reflection into our own practices.
