The Gibbs' reflective cycle is a structured approach that we use in our setting to self reflect and self evaluate. Writing down or talking about an event and what happened, the feelings of the person involved, evaluating the quality of the practice in the event, analysing why and then using the conclusions drawn to form an action plan is a very useful practice and has lead to professional development across the setting. This links in to Kolb's learning cycle as the reflective observation part of the cycle. How do you self reflect in your setting?
