About the Symposium

Welcome to our Symposium on "Reflective Practice for Enhancing Professional Development in Higher Education". We will explore the transformative power of reflective practice as it relates to higher education. Engaging in introspection and analysis, educators continually refine their approaches, leading to positive influences on teaching, learning, and institutional growth. Throughout this symposium, we will share experiences and examine the impact of reflective practice on individual professional development and the broader educational landscape. Join us as we explore the role of reflective practice in enhancing higher education.
