Flexible instrument for
➢
students
➢
planning, reflecting, showcasing:
learning process, development of competences
➢
teachers
➢
coaching and assessing
➢
the development of competences
➢
course and year transcending
17. Conclusions
➢ Reflection is described more from
a teacher perspective than from
a pupils perspective
➢ Reflection is more described for
“what did I / pupils do and think?” than for
“what did I / pupils want and feel?”
20. Conclusions
➢ More reflection on
outer layers than on
inner layers (identity and mission)
This could cause frictions!
21. Division in 2 groups
➢ Group A (N=24)
➢ Reflection blocks with a description of any of the
following reflections:
➢ What did I want?
➢ What did I feel?
➢ What did pupils want?
➢ What did pupils feel?
➢ Group B (N=23)
➢ Reflection blocks without any of the above reflections
described.
25. Conclusions
➢ Reflection quality is higher when it includes
reflection upon “what do I/pupils want and feel?”
➢ Statistically significant:
➢ Awareness
➢ Create alternatives
➢ Trial
➢ Describe + reflect competencies
➢ Describe + reflect beliefs
26. General conclusions
➢ Competence oriented nature of this portfolio →
focus on demonstrating efforts for the
improvement of competencies
and less on the whole of personal development
➢ Not much core reflection
27. Recommendations
➢ Careful with too much emphasis on
competencies!
➢ Enough emphasis on own teaching experiences
➢ Stimulate full reflection cycles
➢ Stimulate reflection on what teachers and pupils
want and feel.
➢ Stimulate reflection on all onion levels
