Entrance Slip September 14th - On being a Reflective Teacher

This article speaks to me as a new teacher candidate in Vancouver in 2023 because of ensuring that I am going into this process with an open mind. I want to ensure that I am committing fully to this process and am open to all of the new experiences that will come. I also want to ensure that I am open to adapting things that may be my current norm. This article also made me think about the type of school and classroom structure I want to work in so that my teaching is supported. I believe that it seems dated that teachers are forced into standardized patterns of behaviour. I believe that teachers now are able to act at a wider range of their own opinions and are allowed to run their classes in what way they please, as long as they are still talking about all of the curriculum.

This article helped me develop my ideas about teacher inquiry as I believe that it is important to reflect and act on those reflections made. I disagree that teachers are not able to act on the results of their own inquiries. I believe that teachers should be able to act accordingly on what they think is the best after reflecting on their actions. This is important for the bettering of students and ensuring that you as the teacher are able to help your students flourish to the best of your abilities.
