    Study Notes

    Reflective Practice

    • Reflective practice is the ability to think about and analyze your actions.
    • The goal of reflective practice is to continually learn and improve.
    • Reflection requires conscious analysis of emotions, actions, and responses to gain insights from experiences.

      • What happened?
      • So what?
      • Now what?
    • Kolb and Fry’s Model (1975) focuses on experiential learning and transforming information into knowledge.
    • Argyris and Schön’s Model (1978) introduces single-loop and double-loop learning:
      • Single-loop learning corrects errors using existing strategies.
      • Double-loop learning modifies objectives and strategies for future situations.
    • Schön’s Model (1983) defines two types of reflection:
      • Reflection-on-action: Reviewing past experiences and analyzing potential improvements.
      • Reflection-in-action: Reflecting on actions during the process.
    • Gibbs’ Model (1988) provides a structured debriefing process for reflection:
      • Description of the experience
      • Feelings about the experience
      • Evaluation of the experience
      • Analysis of the situation
      • General conclusions
      • Specific conclusions
      • Action plan
    • Johns’ Model (1995) incorporates five patterns of knowing:
      • The aesthetic
      • The personal
      • The ethical
      • The empirical
      • The reflexive
    • Brookfield’s Model (1998) suggests looking through four lenses:
      • Lens 1: Our autobiography as a learner

      • Lens 3: The experience of our colleagues
      • Lens 4: Theoretical literature

    • Argyris and Schön (1978): Introduced single-loop learning and double-loop learning.
      • Single-loop learning: Correcting errors without altering strategies or policies.
      • Double-loop learning: Modifying objectives, strategies, or policies to address similar situations differently.
    • Schön (1983): Advocate of reflection-on-action and reflection-in-action.
      • Reflection-in-action: Reflecting during actions, considering best practices.

      • Emphasized the importance of critically questioning actions to identify and resolve "problems."
    • Gibbs (1988): Structured debriefing to facilitate reflection in Kolb's experiential learning cycle.
      • Stages: Initial experience, Description, Feelings, Evaluation, Analysis, Conclusions (general and specific), Personal action plans.
      • Frequently cited as "Gibbs' reflective cycle" or "Gibbs' model of reflection."
    • Johns (1995): Structured reflection model for practitioners.
      • Designed for sharing experiences with colleagues or mentors to accelerate learning.
      • Emphasis on experiential knowledge, "looking in" on thoughts and emotions, and "looking out" at the situation.
      • Incorporates five patterns of knowing: aesthetic, personal, ethical, empirical, and reflexive.
    • Brookfield (1998): Four lenses for critically reflective practitioners.
      • Lens 1: Autobiography as a learner: Reflecting on personal learning experiences.
      • Lens 2: Learners' eyes: Considering learners' perspectives and interpretations of actions.
