ABSTRACT

A key aim of this chapter is to support the reflective approach to teaching and learning which

is discussed more fully in Chapter 7. In this we are encouraging teachers to move away from

a competency-based or technician model of teaching towards a model which stresses the need

for practitioners to monitor their own teaching behaviour and the ways in which that

behaviour affects the pupils in their classrooms. Such reflection, we would argue, is best

supported by the collection of evidence from the classroom.
