The book is divided into four sections, each addressing a key aspect of the learner and educator experience.

Section 2 delves into the influence of workplace contexts and how they can be utilized to enhance learning. Section 3 focuses on the role of workplace assessments as embedded processes to positively influence learning. Lastly, Section 4 provides an overview of the changing roles of the clinical educator and offers processes and models of professional development to build educational expertise.

One of the standout features of this book is its integrated approach, demonstrating the interconnectedness of theory, method, and context within the field of clinical education. The authors draw upon cognitive, psychological, sociocultural, experiential, and ethical frameworks to inform teaching decisions. Through the use of case studies throughout the book, readers are provided with real-life examples and contexts to better understand the concepts presented.
