The aim of the book is to explain a range of options for implementing the reflective practice cycle in educational settings in various international contexts.

Increasing attention is given by teachers and teacher educators to the construct and implementation of reflective practice as a form of bottom-up, autonomous professional development. The aim of the book is to explain a range of options for implementing the reflective practice cycle in educational settings in various international contexts. Written by international academics, these studies show how reflection can be interpreted in different cultural contexts.

It is hoped that the book will enable practitioners, and their mentors, to consider how best to implement reflective procedures in the specific contexts in which they work. Chapters in the book include:* Lesson planning: The fundamental platform for reflecting for action* Reflecting on action: Lesson transcripts* Pair discussions for reflecting on action: Stimulated recall* Observation leading to reflection This book will be key reading for researchers in the fields of teacher education.
