Suhomlinski said: "I suggest that every teacher keep an educational diary. Educational diary is not an official document requiring a certain format, but a personal essay record that can be recorded in daily work. These records are the source of thinking and creation. The teacher's diary that has been kept for 10, 20 years or even 30 years is a great wealth. Every teacher who is diligent in thinking has his own system and his own educational literacy. " 2. Educational narrative research is an important way to reflect on education and teaching.
Reflection generally refers to the actor's ability to critically examine his behavior and its situation based on himself.
Dewey pointed out: "Reflection is the reconstruction or reorganization of experience, which increases the significance of experience and enhances the ability to guide the direction of subsequent experience."
Teaching experience will not naturally become a learning resource, only the reflected experience is a teacher's self-wealth. Posner, an American psychologist, put forward the formula of teacher growth: growth = experience+reflection. On the contrary, if a teacher is only satisfied with gaining experience without thinking deeply, then even if he has "20 years of teaching experience, he may only repeat his work 20 times a year; Unless ... you are good at learning from experience and reflection, there can be no progress. "
Reflection is the most important advanced thinking ability to promote teachers' professional development and the core of teachers' development.
