Reflective practice has moved from the margins to the mainstream
of professional education. However, in this process, its radical
potential has been subsumed by individualistic, rather than
situated, understandings of practice. Presenting critical
perspectives that challenge the current paradigm, this book aims to
move beyond reflective practice. It proposes new conceptualisations
and offers fresh approaches relevant across professions.
Contributors include both academics and practitioners concerned
with the training and development of professionals.
Definitions of reflection (which are often implicit) often focus
on the individual's internal thought processes and responsibility
for their actions. The individual - what they did/thought/felt ? is
emphasised with little recognition of context, power dynamics or
ideological challenge. This book presents the work of
practitioners, educators, academics and researchers who see this as
problematic and are moving towards a more critical approach to
reflective practice.
With an overview from the editors and fourteen chapters
considering new conceptualisations, professional perspectives and
new practices, Beyond Reflective Practice examines what new forms
of professional reflective practice are emerging. It examines in
particular the relationships between reflective practitioners and
those upon whom they practise. It looks at the ways in which the
world of professional work has changed and the ways in which
professional practice needs to change to meet the needs of this new
world. It will be relevant for those concerned with initial and
ongoing professional learning, both in work and in educational
contexts.
