The term 'feedback' was coined by engineers in the 1940s to describe the procedure where engineers check to see if a space rocket is following its flight path and if not, to guide it back. Since then, the term has become widely used in education.
After graduating from Leicester Medical School in 2006, Jenny undertook Foundation Training and subsequently decided to specialize in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, completing an academic Acute Care Common Stem (ACCS) programme and post as an Honorary Education Fellow.
She is involved in both undergraduate and postgraduate education, with particular interests in feedback and supporting trainees in difficulty. She is also interested in mentoring in medical education and is trained as an Egan mentor.
Jenny is an author for the e-Lead and e-ICM programmes.
