Many have recognized the importance of reflective writing, particularly metacognition, in undergraduate medical education. However, there are few concrete examples and explanations for fully integrating reflective writing exercises across multiple situations, experiences, and levels of growth. The authors provide conceptual frameworks, concrete curricular structures, and reflective tools used at two medical schools. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0g51271v Thu, 22 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +0000 Linsenmeyer, Machelle Long, Goldberry
