This is a practical guide to reflective practice for teachers and
trainee teachers in the FE and skills sector. Reflective practice is a
key element of teaching and this comprehensive and accessible guide
introduces and explains this area of practice for trainee and new
teachers. It asks ′what is reflective practice?′ and includes an
exclamation of the processes of reflection and tips on reflective
writing.
Many trainees and new teachers need support in reflective practice.
Written for all those working towards QTLS, this text gives practical
guidance on how to become a reflective practitioner and examines how
this relates directly to teaching in the FE and skills sector, and how
reflection can benefit teaching. This second edition includes new
chapters on ′reflective teaching and learning′ and
′reflection-re-action′, a new Theory Focus feature.
