This conference will focus on teaching approaches that encourage and support veterinary students’ reflection on their learning experiences, and the development of lifelong learning skills through self-regulated learning. These will be examined in the context of both classroom settings and the clinical learning environment, and the implications for students’ academic achievement, the development of clinical skills, and wellbeing will be considered. Keynote speakers will address topics such as narrative medicine, principles of self-regulated learning, metacognition, feedback, and evaluation.
