This week we're launching six new media literacy activities for Be Internet Awesome, designed to help kids analyze and evaluate media as they navigate the internet.
It sets out:
common expectations for reflective practitioners
how reflection can be more effective, and less of a tick box exercise
how to develop multi professional teams of reflective practitioners.
The technology will help patients, especially the elderly, blind and those who cannot access the internet through traditional means, to get professional, NHS-verified health information in seconds, through simple voice commands.
Letter. Dr Launer provides significant insight into the challenges faced by doctors in his article ‘Managing the threat to reflective writing’.1 In particular, attention has been focused on the approaches to sustain reflective practice in postgraduate education.
As a junior doctor, I volunteered to become a reflective writing tutor for medical students in first year clinical training. Students were given constructive guidance for these assignments, including examples of the different models used in reflective practice; the Gibbs’ cycle (description, feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusions and actions) was highlighted as an exemplar framework.2 My task was then to provide feedback to students on reflective writing pieces through the year and award an overall score. But can we—or should we—grade reflective writing? . To read the full article, log in using your NHS OpenAthens details.

PubMed recently announced that they are retiring LinkOut and urged libraries to sign up for their Outside Tool instead. LinkOut made it fairly easy for NHS libraries to get their resources into PubMed but Outside Tool is a bit trickier.
We’ve had a really interesting problem, one I’m at a loss to answer…
The user was looking for articles on ‘lead’ (the metal) and was clearly getting lots of noise from articles that use the not metal version of the term, such as:
