Critical reflection is a collaborative, ongoing process that informs decisions about children’s learning and teacher professional practice. It involves teachers, educators, children, parents/carers, family and community members.
Teachers and educators consider:
- evaluation of program and practice to identify ways of improving teaching, learning and relationships
- multiple perspectives and theories to build insight
- personal and world views and their potential influence on teaching and learning
- evidence-informed approaches to connect theory to practice, and maintain accountability and integrity in professional decision-making.
