Survey Questions and Reflective Practices Narrative

As part of our continuous improvement process, we are assessing our effectiveness in preparing ADE students to become reflective practitioners. The main way we would like to do this is to follow you as you grow as teachers. We developed this Reflective Practices Narrative and Survey to learn more about the role of reflection in your teaching practice. We are asking you to complete this upon graduation and will then ask you to complete it each year over the next five years. We will reach out to you next spring when you are completing your first year of teaching!!!!
