Cartermichelle@theusajournals.com<p>The contemporary educational landscape demands educators who are not only proficient in their subject matter but also highly adaptable, self-aware, and capable of continuous professional growth. Reflective ability stands as a cornerstone of these qualities, enabling teachers to critically analyze their practice, learn from experience, and navigate the complexities of the classroom environment. This article proposes a comprehensive methodological framework for fostering reflective competencies among future teachers, integrating theoretical insights from pedagogy and psychology with practical pedagogical approaches. The framework emphasizes a multi-faceted development process, encompassing theoretical understanding of reflection, practical application through diverse activities, and systematic self-assessment and peer feedback. By delineating the principles, components, and necessary pedagogical conditions for its implementation, this methodology aims to equip aspiring educators with the essential meta-competence of reflection, thereby enhancing their professional pedagogical development and preparing them for the dynamic challenges of modern education, aligning with national educational reform initiatives.</p>2025-08-01T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c)
