  6. Reflecting Questions Reflecting is about looking beyond the surface and asking questions such as: Why did I do that? What was I thinking and feeling at the time? Where did these thoughts and feelings come from? What assumptions was I making at the time? What values and beliefs underline my decisions to act in this particular way? How did relationships with other people influence what happened?

  7. Reflecting questions can become more complex over time … • Is this way of acting or speaking part of a pattern? • Whose interests does my acting or speaking in this way serve? • What competing views or value systems are apparent? • Are there personal or contextual factors which constrain/limit my view of what is possible in my professional practice? • Can or should these factors be changed? • Who would benefit or suffer if they were?

  8. Who or what can help???

  9. 1 One aspect that you can reflect upon from your practicuum.

  10. Ideas for Getting Started • Use an Agenda: • What is the current problem or issue? Describe the context. • What additional information would be useful? • How is it related to other issues? • Who or what could help? • What are my assumptions? How can I test them? • What can I do to create a change? • What are the possible outcomes of these? • What action will I take? Why? • List the outcomes you hope to achieve. • Reflection on the actual outcome. What worked well? • What could I do differently next time?

  11. A Pen-Portrait of Me • 1. What kind of teacher am I? • What are my core beliefs about: a) teaching? b) learning? • 3. How would I describe my teaching style? • 4. What ideas do I have about teaching? • How can these ideas contribute to developing a knowledge base about teaching? • 6. Where do my ideas about teaching come from? • 7. Who/What helped formulate my ideas about teaching? • Do these ideas align/conflict with my current views about teaching? • Why or Why not? • 9. What do I feel strongly about in education?

  12. Conduct an Interview of a Teacher 1. What do you think are his/her core beliefs about teaching? 2. What else would you like to know about his/her beliefs/attitudes? 3. What needs to be clarified? 4. What is missing? Write down responses. Provide an analysis of responses.

  13. A call to action: Teachers who are critically reflective focus their attention both inwardly at their own practice and outwardly at the social conditions in which both these practices are situated. (Larrivee 2008, p. 343)
