*Revealing the logics of practice through reflecting: A knowledge-building
approach*

Lee Rusznyak

Students are increasingly being asked to reflect on their practice.
Reflecting is widely valued as a way of making students more aware of their
feelings and thoughts in the workplace. I argue that reflecting plays
another valuable (yet seldom considered) role in preparing students for
practice. It potentially sets up conditions for them to see relations
between disparate parts of their preparation programme. However, this does
not happen by chance.

Using examples from teacher education, I show how tools from Legitimation
Code Theory (LCT) are being used to prepare students to use reflecting as a
mechanism for cumulative learning. A study using semantic waves, for
example, revealed why reflection prompts were constraining
knowledge-building and how the prompts needed to change. In another
intervention, students analysed the specialization codes and semantic
profiles of their own reflections. Through doing so, students became more
aware of the complex knowledge work that reflecting demands, and they
discovered tools to help them navigate this complexity. Their subsequent
reflections showed far more sophisticated pathways across the semantic
plane. I conclude by arguing that a knowledge-building approach to
reflecting creates opportunities for students to uncover the logics that
give their developing practices internal coherence.
