Reflection is a key process for successful growth as a professional educator.
Reflection is a process that allows individuals to become more aware of the implicit tenets and assumptions, which are derived from their experiences, and are often influential in behavior and responses to others. While reflections are based upon remembering, contemplation, and analysis of past behaviors, these assumptions and beliefs are best understood when connected to pedagogy. Reflections will be graded using the reflective journal rubric attached at the end of this syllabus. H. Students will keep a weekly journal. Only e-mail submissions will be accepted.
