Essentials of ReflectionLearn to frame and reframe complex or
ambiguous problems.
Learning to look back upon our actions after they have taken place.
Thinking by linking recent experiences to earlier ones to promote a more complex or interrelated mental schema.
The thinking involves looking for:
1. commonalities
2. differences
3. interrelationships beyond the superficial
Ultimately reflection is all about developing higher order thinking.

FeedbackWhy is it so important?
“Feedback only leads to learning gains when it includes guidance about how to improve.
Typically, teachers are told what they need to do to improve instruction. Teachers are less likely to be shown what the improvement looks like and the steps needed to make that improvement.”
-Marilyn Duncan
