The complex nature of student learning in clinical practice calls for a comprehensive pedagogical framework on how to create optimal learning affordances. The purpose of this study was to describe characteristics of conducted research regarding investigated research questions, distribution of different health care student groups, and employed methodological approaches. A scoping review was chosen to capture the multifaceted characteristics in the field of learning in clinical practice. Funded local projects were analysed to provide significant core concepts for the literature search. A systematic search and review of articles published 2000–2019 in the Nordic countries was conducted according to PRISMA- ScR (23). The search was made in Medline (OVID), SveMed+ and CINAHL and resulted in 3126 articles. After screening of the titles and abstracts 988 articles were included for further review. The abstracts of all these articles were reviewed against established inclusion and exclusion criteria and 391 articles were included. Characteristics of purposes and research questions were analysed with a qualitative content approach resulting in identified subject areas including significant categories. Health care student groups and methodological approaches were also identified. Subjects predominating the research were  organisation of clinical practice, supervision , and  students’ experience  followed by  interprofessional learning  and  learning environment .  Co-operation, university-clinical setting , and  patients’ role  were investigated to a small extent. Sparsely occurring subjects were also  specific learning outcomes  and  evidence-based knowledge . Nursing students were involved in 74% of the studies, medical students in 20%, and other professions around 8%. Qualitative approaches were most common. Health care students’ learning in clinical practice has been researched to a large extent within the Nordic countries and important subject areas are well represented. The research displays a great potential to extract and describe factors to create a pedagogical framework with significant meaning to support students’ learning.
