Research Proposal / Assessment of Student Learning

Abstract

We often think of reflective practice as “practicing what we teach”. In other words, we learn by doing or by experience. The use of reflective practice in the preparation of educators is a vital component of preservice training. However, the use of reflective practice not only enhances teaching and learning but also informs program design and implementation. Therefore, this session will focus both on the implications of research designed to address (1) What is the impact of the reflective practice as pedagogy in training preservice teachers; and (2) Is the research design easy to use and replicate?
