"Why not use comics as a way to spur student learning? In fact, I challenge you to set up an occasional 20-minute comic strip segment during which your students create a comix about something they learned or read or experienced that day ..."

The beginning of a new year typically presents individuals with a designated time and opportunity to reflect upon the events of the past 365 days, to cherish the unforgettable moments, to learn from mistakes or disappointments, and most importantly, to set goals for the next chapter in this adventure we call life. In education, we call these types of behaviors “reflective practice”, or the manner in which teachers step back and evaluate the learning environment.

 

As in any other profession, we assess what was successful, what didn’t work as planned and/or what needs to be adjusted the next time—all in an effort to improve our craft.

GwynethJones's insight:

It's important to take the time to REFLECT on your teaching practice. It's a good practice! And it's from @JoyceValenza. So it's gotta be good, right?

With teachers ever increasing to-do list, it's not unheard of to put our reflections on the back burner. This is one of the most important parts of our profession, and we need to make time for it. Here are some ideas on how to reflect!

7 Ways #Reflection Gives #Students #Ownership of their Learning

It wasn’t until I actively started to reflect, both by myself in writing each and every day, and also with my wife at the end of the day, that I could open up my world to new possibilities. Reflecting helped me recognize where I was currently at (in my job, in blogging, in being a dad and husband) versus where I wanted to be.

If we don’t reflect, we tend to go through the motions, not conscious of what steps we can take to get better or move forward.

The same goes for students. When students are allowed, given time, supported, and praised for their reflection, something changes. They begin to own their experience, instead of being forced into a series of choices they aren’t sure about.

GwynethJones's insight:

I'm reflecting on reflecting. Note taking, goal tasking, and introspection I think is a great skill to teach our kiddos!
