Correct Answer - Option 3 : Cyclic process of thinking about teaching

Reflective teaching is a process where a teacher reflects on what is being taught by him/her in the classroom.

• The teacher examines the effectiveness of the approach adopted by him, does a detailed evaluation and analysis of the teaching practice, and thinks of the ways to improve it.
• Reflective teaching is a cyclical process of thinking and teaching because the teacher continuously thinks about his/her teaching and ways to improve it.
• Reflective teaching is a great method used by seasoned and new teachers to improve their methods of teaching.

• It involves examining the belief about learning and teaching and one’s position with the actual classroom before and after the course is being taught.
