Reflectiveness

In my opinion, most teachers and students find it hard to reflect because reflectiveness demands changes in bahavior. If teachers and students reflect upon what they are doing- or not doing- they are more likely to develop a sense of self-criticism, which is necessary as we humans develop. Therefore, it is important for both teachers and students feel as the others do. For example, a teacher, who persists in teaching dull classes, is avoiding reflectveness because it demands deeper understanding of what his purpose is and how his actions are affecting those around him. Dull classes can affect negatively student's motivation, which might have a lifelong outcome. Likewise, students, who claim that education is not that important, are not only doing harm to their own development, but they are also dragging the whole country development down. For this reason, students must be held accountable for the improvement of a country, community, city, and so on. Students must be reminded of how their actions inflict large mass of people. That's when reflectiveness plays and important role. Everyone must realize that we need to be constantly changing according to diverse needs. Reflectiveness demands a change of behavior and cognition.
