The Promise of Reflective Practice.
Wellington, Bud
Educational Leadership, v48 n6 p4-5 Mar 1991
Like wildflowers blooming in the cracks of city sidewalks, reflective practice celebrates the organic over the artificial. Inquiry-oriented teaching, rejecting logical-positivist methods, engages teachers in a cycle of thought and action based on professional experience. Teachers subjected to quality control pressures reduce their teaching to the lowest common denominator. Includes 12 references. (MLH)
