Working with Alice: a reflection.
Reflective practice has become established within educational programmes and in clinical supervision. Yet what does it mean to be a reflective practitioner? This paper seeks to give some meaning to this concept by drawing on a story I wrote in my reflective journal one evening. My reflection on this event draws out key issues of practice and reflection that enable me to gain insight and apply to future practice within a reflexive learning spiral.
