Reflection

I found the above model for reflective practice in educationand the following information from the website:
www.herdsa.org.au/confs/1996/bell.html.
"Reflection is a rational and focused process of testing assumptions. It was posited in 1938 by John Dewey who described reflective thought within teaching and learning as the
active, persistent and careful consideration of any belief or supposed form of knowledge in the light of the grounds that support it and the further conclusion to which it tends.
In addition to the cognitive effect, the emotional response of the practitioner is integral to the process (Osterman & Kottkamp, 1993; Boud, Keogh and Walker, 1985). Brookfield (1988) notes that 'Critical Reflection' includes not only challenging our assumptions but exploring alternative actions. The inclusion of action turns 'Reflection' into 'Critical Reflection'. "
