This model of reflective practice does not actually focus on the good or bad or anything in between , but

it is more likely subjective.

The outcome of critical reflection is ideally coming to a better understanding of your own authentic
voice, aligning your practice to your morals and your values.
Inspiring selfconfidence- Because the teacher is aware that they are making decisions based on good
logic, they are confident in their teaching practice, and as a result, the students will have a better
learning experience.

Achieving educational SMART goals-

powerful effectiveness and time management tool

-Motivated, critically reflective students

Since the students observe the critical self-reflection from the teacher, they acquire the same
reflective practice on themselves. Being self-aware is the first step on being motivated.
According to Brookfield, we should look through four lenses when gathering data for our reflective
analysis

1. Autobiographical Lens- in simple words, this simply involves thinking about your own
experience. The idea is seeing what you can learn from your own lenses or perspective as both
a student and a teacher.

Example: Journals

2. The student’s eyes- due to the fact that students may provide feedback in a number of ways
such as simply by their facial expression, comments on class or engaging in academic
activities. All of these can provide you with useful information regarding on how the students
feel about your teaching practice.

3. Colleagues’ experiences- through observations, dialogue, shared values. You should consider
your colleague’s point of view when gathering data for reflective practice. This includes asking
a colleague for advice on an education problem or seeking feedback.

4. The theoretical literature- Learning from research and case studies. All teachers would ideally
take an evidence informed approach where they consult the literature before making teaching
decisions in order to decide what might work best in a given situation.
Single loop

Goal- want to beat all the artist ever known to history

Action- You use art tools and have your own art style and techniques

Result- You notice that you don’t improve

You repeat

Single loop learning- it’s problem solving but going back to the same action you took and having the
same result over again

Double loop

Goal- Be the best version of yourself as an artist and express yourself better through your art

Action- You change your art style because you feel like the other art style helps you express yourself
more than the other

Result- You feel happy about yourself and fulfilled as an artist.

Double loop learning reevaluate and reframe goals

2 TYPES OF REFLECTIVE PRACTICE – THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THESE TWO IS THAT THE FIRST ONE IS
DONE AFTER A CERTAIN SITUATION AND THE SECOND ONE CAN BE DONE DURING.
