Research and Theory Book, Chapter 1
• Five generalizations that characterize the research and theory base for reflective practice: – RP is not a new idea – RP is widely recognized as important – RP is greatly influenced by Schön – RP is critical to expertise – K-12 education has not fully embraced RP

Reflective Practice is Not a New Idea
• Common theme throughout the literature on reflective thinking is seeing reflection as:
• “…an active thought process aimed at understanding and subsequent improvement.”

Reflective Practice is Widely Recognized as Important
• Widely used in many professions – On-the-spot decisions and adaptations
• Attorneys • Nurses • Teachers • Doctors • Engineers

Schön • Reflection-in-
action separates skilled practitioners from unskilled ones.
• Reflection-in-action increases tacit knowledge.
• Experimentation is important to reflective practice.

Reflection-on-Action vs. Reflection-in-Action
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
What is Tacit Knowledge?
• “…competent practitioners usually know more than they can say.”
• tacit knowledge = knowing-in-action

Reflective Practice is Critical to Expertise
• For centuries, people believed that expertise, or talent, was bestowed on select individuals, and that it was impossible to develop high levels of skill within a given domain unless one had innate talent for that domain.
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
“The differences between expert performers and normal
adults reflect a life-long period of deliberate effort to
improve performance in a specific domain.”
• Ericsson and colleagues (1993)

• Please one you may have known about. • Please one you found particularly
interesting. • Please share with your table family.
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com 17
Metacognition
• Developing expertise through deliberate practice requires a level of metacognition or ‘knowledge about one’s own knowledge and knowledge about one’s own performance.’
• A coach can be very helpful in providing feedback and direction to someone working to develop expertise.

Five Categories for Reflective Practice
1. Having a model of instruction, 2. Setting growth goals, 3. Engaging in focused practice, 4. Engaging in focused feedback, and 5. Observing and discussing effective
teaching

Action Step: Examining Similarities & Differences
• Comparing • Classifying • Creating metaphors • Creating analogies
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
• The basic thought processes found in identifying similarities and differences is found to be basic to human thought.
• Learning is dependent on prior learning; therefore it is basic to ask, “How is this different from what I already know?”

Integrating Several Strategies to Create a Macrostrategy
• At this stage of development, a teacher is competent with most, if not all, of the strategies for a particular element but wishes to combine some of those strategies
• Usually at the Innovating Level (4)
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com 53
Let’s Try It! • Choose an area of ‘expertise’"• Plan a 2-3 minute lesson (introducing new
knowledge) • Integrate several strategies (Use the
Compendium, pgs. 103-119; you can also use pgs. 57-58)
• Select a timekeeper • Present to group members • Reflect using Teacher Scales (pgs. 191-198)

Chapter Six: Observing and Discussing Teaching
Book, pg. 75
HO, pg. 27
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
Observing & Discussing Teaching
• Requires interaction with other teachers – Videos of other teachers – Coaching colleagues – Instructional rounds
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
Videos of Other Teachers (Pg. 75)
• View video clips of other teachers • After viewing the video clip, both teachers
would discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the lesson they observed.
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
Coaching Colleagues (pg.77)
• Pairs or trios of teachers who agree to provide each other with honest feedback regarding their use of instructional strategies.
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
Training with Coaching vs. Training Alone
• 42%ile gain with regard to transfer of training strategies.
• Coached teachers: – practice new strategies more frequently – develop greater skill with strategies – use strategies more appropriately – exhibit greater long-term retention of strategies – better able to explain new strategies to their students
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
Coaching Colleagues
• Must have a deliberate focus that matters to the individuals involved.
MARZANO Research Laboratory888.849.0851 marzanoresearch.com
Instructional Rounds
• Teams of teachers led by lead teacher • Can be short or long in duration • Primary focus is for observers to compare
and contrast their practice with observed practice
• May or may not be used to provide feedback to observed
