“…Only one other study (Currie et al 2012) explored student engagement with action learning but that study was into online action learning sets so comparison with these findings is difficult. Lamont et al (2010) did not deliberate set out to evaluate student engagement with action learning but one of their findings did indicate that participants engaged well with their action learning sets. Thematic analysis that was undertaken on the different open-ended questions showed that although comments were invited specifically about impact, value and knowledge and skills development through action learning sets, there were some overarching themes that were common across all questions.…”

This article examines the use of action learning sets in a leadership module delivered by a university in south east England. An evaluation research study was undertaking using survey method to evaluate student engagement with action learning sets, and their value, impact and sustainability. Data were collected through a questionnaire with a mix of Likert-style and open-ended questions and qualitative and quantitative data analysis was undertaken. Findings show that engagement in the action learning sets was very high. Action learning sets also had a positive impact on the development of leadership knowledge and skills and are highly valued by participants. It is likely that they would be sustainable as the majority would recommend action learning to colleagues and would consider taking another module that used action learning sets. When compared to existing literature on action learning, this study offers new insights as there is little empirical literature on student engagement with action learning sets and even less on value and sustainability.

“…Group supervision was chosen over individual as it was the most pragmatic of options given the size and volume of nurses within clinical areas. The collaborative exchange of ideas, which group CS would effect was perceived as an important conduit for the critical thinking, which CS would facilitate (31).…”

Clinical supervision (CS) has been identified within nursing as a process for improving clinical practice and reducing the emotional burden of nursing practice. Little is known about its implementation across large tertiary referral hospitals. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the implementation of clinical supervision across several different nursing specialities at a teaching hospital in Sydney, Australia. Using a model of nursing implementation science, a process was developed at the study site that facilitated the development, implementation and evaluation of the project. After a 6-month study period, the CS groups were postevaluated using a survey tool developed for the project. A total of nine CS groups were in operation over the 6-month study period. A predominant focus within the sessions was one of the collegial support and developing standards of practice. The process was able to achieve wide hospital-based support for the role of CS from the senior nurse executives to junior nurses. Whilst there was overall positive support for the CS groups, logistical and resource challenges remain, in the effective roll out of CS to large numbers of nurses.
