"Teachers' daily experiences with students provide them with tremendous opportunities to understand and assess their own practices. Whereas teachers can learn some of the knowledge, skills, and dispositions embedded in teaching in pre--service and in-service educational programs, they can become effective teachers only if they fully understand learning from within. Such knowledge comes from a capacity to reflect upon and appreciate their own learning process and that of others." Giselle O. Martin-Kniep, Capturing the Wisdom of Practice: Professional Portfolios for Educators, 1999 |
