Guest Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Hi I wondered if anyone knew where i can find articles or something against self reflection, i can find lots of evidence supporting it but want to put an opposite view across for my dissentation. I have searched the internet and soooo many books but cant find anything. Does anyone have any ideas....... been at it all day and feel as if i'm getting nowhere!!!!!!! I have discussed schon, greenway and dewey and ECM, EYFS, EYPS.......... now struggling.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Hm, I can't help with any articles, but there's a point of view that you can self-reflect too much to the extent that nothing is happening NOW - there's no forward motion. Sunnyday's quote of last week about how weighing a pig every day doesn't make it heavier, springs to mind. It could be argued, and I take your point, that there seems to be a lot of emphasis on self-reflection at the moment, and sometimes we should just 'move on' without necessarily reflecting first - a leap into the dark if you like. I'm sure I'll get shot down in flames for suggesting it, but I'm just trying to provide a point of view for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankyou.... maybe i'm reflecting a little too much!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upsy Daisy Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Could you find conflicting ideas about the best process for reflection or about how it affects the learning outcomes for the children? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
