Reflecting through Peshkin's I's
Savage, Jonathan
International Journal of Music Education, v25 n3 p193-203 2007
Reflection is an appropriate way of accounting for professional practice and is a standard way in which one can "become better acquainted with one's own story". Defining "subjectivity" as "the quality of an investigator that affects the results of observational investigation", Peshkin highlights the requirement for any observer of, or participant in, educational events to be "meaningfully attentive" to their own subjectivity as they conduct and reflect on their teaching and research activities. Using Peshkin's work as a model, this article considers the process by which the author identified a number of his own "subjective I's". From this process, key points are made for other teachers or researchers wanting to adapt this reflective method to their own work. (Contains 2 tables.)
