The authors explain reflective practice in a clear and concise manner and illustrate how reflective practice can enhance student learning. Readers will come away with an understanding of the potential of reflective practice to improve teaching and learning in schools.After introducing the concept of reflective practice as a set of skills and behaviours, the authors take the readers through steps and activities to establish an individual practice, reflection partners, small group reflection, and school wide reflective practice. Reflective practice is not only for individuals who want to take personal responsibility for learning and improvement but also for educators who gain greater communication between staff and community.
