Download or read book Promoting Teacher Reflection in Second Language Education written by Thomas S. C. Farrell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking the concept and the practice of reflective teaching forward, this book introduces a well-structured, flexible framework for use by teachers at all levels of development, from pre-service to novice to the most experienced. The framework outlines five levels of reflective practice—Philosophy; Principles; Theory-of-Practice; Practice; Beyond Practice—and provides specific techniques for teachers to implement each level of reflection in their work. Designed to allow readers to take either a deductive approach, moving from theory-into-practice, or an inductive approach where they start from a practice-into-theory position, the framework can be used by teachers alone, in pairs, or in a group.
