Promoting Teacher Reflection in Second Language Education

<p>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. </p>
