Abstract

Reflective practice enables educators to engage in self-examination of personal narratives and potential implicit bias that might impact their engagement with the learning communities they serve. Reflective practice informed by critical pedagogies supports educators in fostering learning spaces that affirm diversity, cultivate intellectual and personal growth, and invite community voices. Reflective practice work is grounded in deep trust, reciprocal mentorship, and a shared commitment to culturally sustaining education. As part of the Reflective Practice in Teacher Education project, the authors designed and discussed teaching for critical consciousness resources and reflective practice modules that allowed PreK-12 educators to delve into identity, implicit biases, culture, privilege, and resilience through a variety of methodologies (including dialogue, eloquent listening, journaling, mindfulness, portraiture).
