ABSTRACT
The five phases of the reflective cycle have been recognized through student-teachers’ journals and interview dialogue. In each case the individual phases have been tallied to give an overall picture of the way the reflective cycle has been used by participants as they learn about teaching. This chapter is designed to explore when these studentteachers employ reflection in their teaching. In so doing it outlines some of the difficulties associated with reflection and how these are related to confidence, experience and learning from doing.
