Self-reflection or reflective thinking is really an important skill that we should introduce to the students. I know it is not an easy skill to learn, but as you know "Practice Makes Perfect". I congratulate you on training other teachers to use strategies with their students. It is one of the 21st century skills to teach students to be self-directed who are able to choose what matches their abilities and capabilities that we might not a ware of.<br /><br />All the best!Azhar Youssefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435520937843550628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889906271234362405.post-19029195555650968492013-02-11T18:38:44.434+02:002013-02-11T18:38:44.434+02:00Yes, I agree with you that helping our students wi...Yes, I agree with you that helping our students with self-reflection, and understanding the best ways that they learn, is something valuable that we as teachers can help them with. I am working with several teachers at the moment on applying Learning Strategies theory in our classes, and a large part of that is helping students become more aware of which strategies they prefer. As Lori said, much food for thought!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15938127870571459576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889906271234362405.post-28009082079659884732013-02-11T17:33:43.622+02:002013-02-11T17:33:43.622+02:00Dear Lori,
