Summary:
"Use reflective practice to renew your life, enhance your teaching practice and promote success for your students!
"As you reflect on your day, what can be learned about your teaching and leadership practice? When you create space during the week to reflect with your colleagues, in what ways can you share your experiences, successes, challenges, and questions to foster collaborative learning and growth? Reflective practice - individually and with others - counteracts the effects of professional isolation and instills a sense of meaning, renewal and empowerment in the hectic lives of educators. Insights gained through reflective practice improve teaching and leadership practices that result in enhanced learning and development for students. Offered in this book is a roadmap for reflective practice that presents research-based information and ideas and strategies for engaging in reflective practice alone, with partners, in small groups, and even schoolwide."-- Publisher description.
