Researching an eLearning Environment for Developing Reflection in Pre-service Teachers: Details of Cycle 4

Roberts, P. (2012) Researching an eLearning Environment for Developing Reflection in Pre-service Teachers: Details of Cycle 4. In: Proceedings of Global Learn pp. 98-103.

Abstract

This paper outlines the implementation and review of an eLearning environment within the PebblePad ePortfolio platform aimed at the development of reflective abilities of pre-service teachers. This review is of Cycle 4 of a larger research project that utilizes the eLearning Lifecycle (Phillips, McNaught & Kennedy, 2011). This stage involved the trial and review of prompts within the platform aimed at developing an enculturation teaching environment (Tishman, Jay, & Perkins, 1993). At this stage of the implementation, the students appear to engage with prompts; particularly those that they see have a direct link with assessable pieces of work although the interaction hoped for in the environment is not occurring. The planned changes to the environment for Cycle 5 are also introduced here.
