OverviewLearning Critical Reflection documents the actual learning experiences of social work students and practitioners. It explores how a more in-depth understanding of the process of learning, combined with an analysis of how to critically reflect, will help improve the learning process. The contributors are all professionals who have learnt, in a formalised way, how to critically reflect on their practice. They speak in depth, and with feeling, about their experiences, how downsides and upsides worked together to transform the way they understood themselves, their professional identity, and their practice. Existing literature about critical reflection is reviewed, identifying the details of learning, and pulling no punches in recognising the difficulty and complexity of becoming transformed through this learning process. The editors of this book also contribute their own reflections on learning how to teach critical reflection and include the findings of a research study conducted on students’ learning. Edited by two experienced educators, this book showcases the process of learning, from the perspective of the learners, in order that educators and students, managers, supervisors, and frontline practitioners alike, may make the most of opportunities to critically reflect in both educational and workplace settings. It should be considered essential reading for social work students, practitioners, and educators.

The book is exceptional for its international scope including narratives from the UK, Canada and Australia, and for the inclusion of both educators and students of critical reflective practice. In a field that has been well developed academically it is refreshing to be offered concrete advice and frameworks for practice to help teach critical reflection.' - Ken Moffat, Professor, School of Social Work and Jack Layton Chair, Faculty of Community Services and Faculty of Arts `In this fascinating and timely book, Laura Beres and Jan Fook gather a group of colleagues to propose and then explore a newly developed model of critical reflection that integrates different theoretical traditions.
