REFLECTIVE PRACTICES BASED STRIP MODEL

“We do not learn from experience……We learn from reflecting on experience.” - John Dewey
NCERT Journal of Education Bhogayata (2000) asserts that “Reflective practice is required because
the teachers of the future should be reflective decision makers in terms of thoughtful persons
intrinsically motivated to analyze a situation, set goals, plan and monitor action, evaluate results and
reflect on their own professional thinking” (p.117).
Reflective Practice is a method of assessing our own thoughts and actions, for the purpose of personal
learning and development. It is highly relevant and helpful towards Continuous Professional
Development (CPD). It's also very helpful in teaching and developing young people and children.
3. Gosh, 2015, asserts it is not only desirable but almost essential to create reflective prospective
teachers who can deal with the complexities of the field of education.
