Implementation of an integrated reflective practice model in higher education pedagogy within the context of a South African tertiary institution
Journal Title: Journal of Educational Research and Reviews - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
Reflection as educational tool to improve practice has gained impetus and is deemed critical within the context of culturally relevant pedagogy. This article provides an example of a practitioners’ reflection on applied educational practices within the context of a South African tertiary institution based on the Comprehensive Assessment Method in Psychology (CAMP). A qualitative, phenomenological research design was implemented. The CAMP model was found to be useful ascribed to the ability thereof to distil and integrate the key academic focus areas with student feedback. In addition, the researcher reflected on underlying beliefs and assumptions which guide internalised interest and practice in the field of education. The significance of the study underscores the value of reflection for current or prospective career academics in terms of aligning with institutional strategic intent. Moreover, it gauges the measure of potential misalignment as well as identifying developmental areas for educators.
