Task 2 Concept map

Reflective teaching emphasizes the importance of teachers critically analyzing their classroom practices to improve educational outcomes. This ongoing process involves teachers considering what occurs during lessons and contemplating different methods to achieve their objectives more effectively.

Teachers’ reflective thinking

Teresa: I’m concerned about my students. I usually worry about my teaching but I’m also concerned about being a good person as well. Here you have to work a lot on respect and tolerance.
Maria: I’m a good teacher. I’m the type of teacher that worries about doing my things well, I would like to know more to improve but... we don’t have many opportunities to do so; therefore, I have to do it on my own.

What is reflective teaching?

According Cruickshank (1981) defines RT as the teacher’s thinking about what happens in classroom lessons, and thinking about alternative means of achieving goals or aims. According to this definition, reflective teaching is “an opportunity to consider the teaching event thoughtfully, analytically and objectively. The purpose of RT is to engender good thought habits”.
According Schön (1987) reflection involves the relationship between an individual’s thought and action, and the relationship between an individual teacher and his or membership in a society. The first relationship involves the subjective perceptions in teachers’ heads, whereas the second explores consciously the relationship between individual teaching actions and purposes of education in society.
