Reflektii: Further Development of a Teacher Reflection Tool

The use of reflection is a key tool in further developing teacher practice for pre-service teachers. Current technology supports pre-service teacher reflection through the use of web-based video reflection. One of the advantages of such tools is the ability to capture a real teaching event that can be analyzed and reflected upon pre-services teacher. The Reflektii environment allows pre-service teachers to record a video of their reflection and to solicit support or feedback from peers. Additional pieces to improve Reflektii’s environment are also discussed

Convergent Validity of the Early Childhood Behavior Problem Screening Scale

This study examined the convergent validity of the parent and teacher versions of the Early Childhood Behavior Problem Screening Scale (ECBPSS) with the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and the Caregiver-Teacher Report Form (C-TRF), respectively. Data were collected on a sample of preschool and kindergarten students (n = 149) from two medium-sized cities in the Midwest. Analyses of both the parent and teacher versions of the ECBPSS were corre¬lated with the corresponding Internalizing, Externalizing, and Total Problem scale scores of the CBCL and the C-TRF. The present findings and future research directions and limitations are discussed

Reflektii: A Teacher Reflection Tool

The use of teacher reflection is a key tool in further developing teacher practice for beginning or experienced teachers. Current technology supports student reflection through the use of video annotation. One of the advantages of such tools is the ability to capture a real teaching event that can be analyzed and reflected upon at a later date repeatedly by the teacher, peers, and supervisors. Only a number of mature video annotation products exists as either stand-alone applications or web based systems. The Reflektii environment allows students to view their teaching and record a video of their reflection or to simply reflect about their teaching and solicit support or feedback from peers
