Description
Summary:This study investigated the perception of TESL trainees toward peers' reflections, combined with the role of reflection on the use of digital language lab in order to teach effectively in a network-based environment. Nine students participated in a regular micro-teaching course on writing and presenting their lesson plans. In educational teaching class trainees were prompted to reflect on their micro-teaching process. In this study the role of reflection was investigated and teacher trainees tried to consciously evaluate their activities in the microteaching classroom. Since 'reflection' provided this opportunity for teacher trainees to be more self-oriented in the educational teaching forum, this study aimed to find the advantages and disadvantages of writing reflections from teacher trainees' perspectives.
