A Web-Based Guiding Framework for Student Teachers' Self-Reflective Practice

• Self-reflection based on video analysis of one’s own teaching performance has proven to be a powerful method for developing student teachers´ professional knowledge. The aim of this study was to investigate how a web-based guiding framework involving the use of a pedagogical tool for planning and reflection in conjunction with annotated video recorded lessons, written reflections and a teacher educator’s feedback, might provide a beneficial method for student teachers’ self-reflection. The study included 56 student teachers performing their in-service training in science teaching. The student teachers completed a questionnaire where they had to respond to statements about their experiences of the framework. The results indicate that a guiding framework that includes analysis of video-recorded teaching is essential for a self-reflective process to become effective. Further development of the framework is to enable student teachers to participate in synchronous discussions with peers and teacher educators about their video-recorded lesson.
