This course provided much more in terms of information and support than I expected. The theoretical background on self-reflection gave me a new viewpoint that will expand my thinking about the topic. In addition, the course provided many resources to support both planning and reflection. I was particularly happy to see the checklists and rubrics from Jim Knight. These materials will help me become more effective in my use of video for self-reflection and in my support of teachers as they begin to take part in the process.
