Description

Nursing students learn reflective practice, the habit of thinking back over their work to grow as professionals. Far less is known about the teachers who guide that learning. Lisa Speedie and co-authors review the literature on that question in a 2026 scoping review, gathering studies of nurse academics who teach reflection to undergraduate nursing students.

Searching six databases for studies from 2010 onward, the team found eleven primary studies and grouped them into four themes. The themes cover the teacher's role, the challenges of teaching reflection, the approaches used, and the personal exposure teachers feel when sharing their own reflections. Most past work lists barriers rather than exploring teachers' lived experience. The authors call for research that listens to the teachers themselves.
