This book has been recommended to the learners embarking on the BA in relation to their first module, which explores professional development.

The resource has allowed students to reflect upon their work placements and ideas for future development. Excellent resource for work based learning modules

This text supports the trainee teachers in considering the importance oif reflection both before and during periods of professional practice.

I have recommended and will be recommending this book to our trainee teachers..

A very practical and clear text to engage students with reflection on practice and professional development. The practical task and points of reflection are a useful tool to use in the classroom context.

This text helps students link reflective practice to their own professional development. Good exercises to encourage students to engage with reflective practice.

An excellent book for helping students understand how reflection in practice is a legitimate source of knowledge and evidence in contemporary practice.

This book encourages reflection on practice and professional development. It was very applicable to my early years students who recognised themes in common with their own professional practice. The particular focus on skills development and critical exercises were useful and easy to apply in a classroom context. The material in the appendices would be useful for students to adapt to their reflection and the development of follow-up action plans.

This is a really well written and easy to read book.

This is a great book that approaches reflection from an education perspective and links it to professional practice. It underpins that value of reflection and pulls together good examples from an educational (school) context. The section about reflective practice for children and young people suggests ways of introducing it to groups and discusses research carried out. As a teacher educator the fact that the book looks at ITE and the value of reflection is particularly useful to me as some of my students struggle with reflective concepts.

An easy to read book which assists students with critical reflective practice.

Provides an overview of the field. Very much recommended

This is an essential text for all students engaging in critical reflective practice.

excellent book to assist in ADP programme

Does not really fit with the course for the students at the college. An excellent book though for aspiring teachers.

some helpful ideas for students

This is an excellent introduction to the area of reflective practice. The chapter overviews and summaries are well lay out and presented. Of importance also to students are the example case studies cited which prompt focussed student discussion.

I will use this text myself, to support my changing role as a mentor and coach, as well as a teacher. I will recommend it to learners who show interest in reflective practice as a way to support their future learners - particularly relevant for those learners who are considering teaching in schools, with useful examples of reflective practice studies.

This author takes a broad approach to reflection across a number of professions including teaching. I think is could have been better linking values to professional practice via reflection.
