Seminal authors contributions to the concept of reflection

This article will examine the development in thought on reflection in the west focusing on a number of key questions detailed below.

It will be written with the goal of submitting the article to the journal Reflective Practice as one of a pair. The second article being Contemporary developments to the concept of reflection.

This is the first article: 

The first article will be focused on the work of seminal authors with respect to the concept of reflection and a second will trace significant contemporary developments to the concept of reflection in the field of reflective supervision, possibly more widely, reflective practice, depending on the volume of material I find. I think the questions I presented in class will give me good points of focus for my reading. 

 

The authors I would like to consider for the first essay would include: Argyris, Argyris and Schon, Brookfield, Brookfield and Preskill, Boud, Dewey, Freire, Habermas, Kelly, Kolb, Mezirow, Polanyi, Schon and Senge. I may need to narrow this list down depending on what I find as I read. The major works of these authors nicely begin to tail off around year 2000 so I could frame the article as a reflection on reflection before the turn of the century :-) This list of authors is largely guided by our conversations and the Redmond chapters. If there are any other authors you believe may warrant inclusion please let me know. Hopefully the journal will offer feedback here too. There are 14 authors on that list, which means roughly 350 words each. There are also 14 questions so likewise 350 words each. I guess it will be tight whichever way I view it.

 

Authors I am aware warrant attention in the second article would include: J Butler, David Boud, Michael Carroll, Davys and Beddoe, Jan Fook, Gardner, F., Caroline Humphrey, Christopher Johns, Kolb, Nugent, Moss, et al., Owen (Passionate Supervision, Smythe et. al.), Scaife, Senge, Shohet. If there are any other authors you can think of that I should pay attention to then please let me know.

The italicised names appear in both lists.
