Abstract:

Radiographers who act as clinical supervisors are responsible for giving constructive feedback to radiography students on clinical performance. Unfortunately, there is a scarcity of educational material to support radiographers in developing and maintaining competence in this role. This article reviews: relevant literature on the principles of giving constructive feedback, models of delivering effective feedback, and barriers associated with giving effective feedback to students on clinical performance. Clinical supervisors applying the principles of giving feedback and models would improve the delivery of feedback to radiography students in the clinical learning environment (CLE).
