The art and science of reflective practice
Author(s): Gagandeep Bajaj
Abstract: Reflective thinking should be a way of life. Reflecting on our daily activities enables us to process what happened and develop a fresh perspective. Reflection is equally important in our personal and professional lives. The present article investigates the importance of reflection in the lives of interns who are pursuing professional teacher education courses. It tries to understand the role that reflection plays in their journey towards becoming a reflective teacher. The methodology involved a perusal of reflective journals and interviews geared towards deciphering the dynamics of the process. A document analysis enabled the emergence of meaningful themes delineating reflective practice. The study underscores the significance of reflection in bridging the gap between theory and practice, as well as, nurturing reflective practitioners.
