Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Reflective teachers think about what they do, what their goals are, whether those goals are worthy, and whether their means for achieving those goals are appropriate. They are constantly evaluating their approaches and are aware of the extent to which scientific evidence supports their choices. Reflective teachers are aware of their students' needs and of whether their chosen approaches to learning are appropriate for all students. They are constantly trying to determine whether their job can be done better and are constantly evaluating their own work.
For example, a teacher wishing to teach a lesson in biology may discover that the approach to
teaching a certain lesson appears too difficult or boring to the class. A reflective teacher will realize this right away and try to do something about it, possibly by formulating a hypothesis about why the students are bored or uncomprehending, and will choose a different approach with this hypothesis in mind. If the change in strategy works for most of the class, but a few students remain bored or restless, the teacher may try a different approach with these particular students. Being a reflective teacher requires the teacher to be both scientist and artist, as described in the previous answer.
