A Survey of Reflective Teaching Techniques Among Selected Basic School Teachers in Akuse

ABSTRACT 

 This study investigated the reflective teaching techniques practiced by basic school teachers in Akuse. The specific objectives of the study were to examine the reflective teaching techniques used by basic school teachers in Akuse, the extent to which these 

techniques were practiced and also find out the most popular and convenient reflective teaching techniques  practiced by some selected basic school teachers in Akuse. A 17-item questionnaire was developed to seek information to satisfy the objectives. Sixty-eight (68) teachers made of forty-nine (49) professional teachers and nineteen (19) non-professional teachers with teaching experiences ranging from less than a year to more-than-eight years of teaching experience. The data gathered was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). The results of the study showed that the reflective teaching techniques practiced by basic school teachers in Akuse included oral reflection, peer observation, recording in log books and the use of questionnaires. Oral reflection was found to be the most popular and convenient reflective teaching technique. It was also found from the study results that professional teachers and teachers with at least five years of teaching experience do reflect on their teaching using various techniques to a large extent compared to nonprofessional teachers and teachers with less than five years of teaching experience. It was recommended from the study that peer observation must be encouraged in schools. Workshops on reflective teaching should be organised often to educate and remind teachers of its effectiveness in teaching.
