Tun Ili Ayuni Bt Ahmad Hariri (GB130076) Assalamualaikum..i would like to share this article entitled Where are the children? Personal integrity and reflective teaching portfolios. Written by Deborah P. Berrill, Catherine Whalen. This article is about 2 year school wide portfolio initiative in a British elementary school, where teachers are resistance to the initiative, and factors that contributed to acceptance of the portfolio initiative. Critical components to teacher engagement in this context included teacher ownership of the process and product, a child-centered focus to the portfolio, and opportunity to include belief statements and entries of felt importance. This study show that reflective teaching portfolio is discussed as a cultural tool of mediation and a vehicle for providing programmatic reflection while teacher integrity can be showed through alignment of beliefs and teaching practice over time. More detail about this research can be read in this journal. Thank You :)
