A new study examines how teacher training in India could shift from passive reflection to active reflexivity, encouraging educators to critically analyze their own practices and adapt them in real time. The research suggests that traditional professional development often relies on retrospective discussions, while a more dynamic approach could better address classroom challenges as they arise. By integrating reflexive strategies, teachers may develop stronger problem-solving skills and a deeper understanding of student needs. The findings highlight potential benefits for both individual educators and broader educational outcomes.
