Feedback in clinical practice: Enhancing the students’ experience through action research
  Feedback to student nurses and midwives within clinical practice is known to be central to their learning and development. A study that focused on student experience of assessment identified that a high proportion of students reported that they had received insufficient feedback whilst on clinical placement. In response to this academics and members of the clinical education team set out to explore this with a view to improving the student experience using action research. Key findings indicated that responsibility for feedback on clinical placement lies with both students and mentors, distinct factors can enable effective feedback and that positive outcomes for mentors and students resulted through engaging with the project. The process, outcomes and actions taken to improve practice are the focus of this paper
