Abstract

Nowadays, the reflective approach can be considered the predominant paradigm in the education of English language teachers. This is revealed in the literature and in recent research. However, there are several understandings of what reflection means, and this has already been pointed out by researchers. Many points of convergence and divergence coexist in the great quantity of activities labeled “reflective”. This paper aims at mapping out the meanings of reflection in the literature of teacher education, as part of a project entitled “Reflective teaching in the education of English language teachers”.
