You can see that if you are going to use evidence in the professional practice and corporate writing you need to seek out the best available information for your studies and practice. You also need to focus on the general aspect of the topic you are interested in so that you do not get sidetracked with more common information and therefore fail to identify what you really need to know. You also need to be selective about what you read, see and hear and be able to recognize good quality evidence when you come across it.
It is important to apply the same rigor to your own writing and presenting, as you do when analyzing source materials. Use a simple checklist to help you ensure you are demonstrating your skills of in your presentations. It can help you to see how you can develop your work further. You can also ask your peers to critically appraise your work, helping you to get fresh ideas about how you can enhance your work.
Bad choices about professional practice are likely to be made which can have a deep impact on patients and clients. This in turn can have a major impact on both your practice and academic work. Critical thinking in writing and practice is a vital skill that all professionals need to acquire from the very start of their practice experience and in their work.
Furthermore, your ability to be critical will be assessed and this is a substantial component in almost all marking criteria for those studying for a professional eligibility in health and social care. In fact, being critical is probably the key element of all higher education courses. It is important to note that this is crucial in relation to both your academic studies and your professional practice.
Sometimes you can access academic journal articles on the internet from a simple search using a search engine such as Google or Yahoo. Discussion between professionals about information or research that has been critically appraised is likely to be helpful. However, it is not always the case that information will be critically appraised by practitioners.
There is a need to be critical of what you read, see and hear, and you therefore need to question what you are told in practice rather than accepting what your mentor tells or shows you. If you stop to think about this, the implications are enormous. If information or advice is not critically appraised or is based on unfounded rumor, and is then passed unchallenged from one professional to another, we will not be demonstrating evidence-based practice.
However, newspapers may provide useful background information. They might lead you to a controversial quotation to start your assignment or to get people thinking in a discussion. Potential clients might refer you to a research study, giving a snippet of information but not the full reference for the study, making it harder but possible to track it down.
Link to relevant research, theory and policy, demonstrating your skills of decisive analysis and appraisal as you do so. Be prepared to invite questions from the audience, using them as an opportunity to demonstrate your skills of critical appraisal further. Link corporate writing to relevant theory and research, and link the questions back to your focus.
