五、讲座内容简介

    Reflective practice generally means that language teachers subject their practices to a critical analysis so that they can so that they can become more aware of their practice. Gaining teaching experience as a language teacher is not enough to provide automatic professional development, for we do not learn much from experience as much as we learn from reflecting on that experience; thus experience combined with systematic reflection can lead to professional growth so that we can become more effective language teachers. In this interactive talk I first discuss what reflective practice is and then bring participants through a Framework for Reflecting on Practice that has 5 stages: philosophy, principles, theory, practice and beyond practice. Thus, by engaging in reflective practice, language teachers can develop the resourcefulness and resilience necessary to face any future challenges and changes in their careers.
