In addition to presenting the philosophical root of the reflective approach to teaching and the structure for engaging student teachers in reflective processes, I present the outcome of my own and my colleagues’ attempts to unlock the reflective potentials of student teachers ata poor teacher education faculty in Ethiopia and a theoretical/methodological framework to deal with the reflective data. I hope that teacher educators who work with student teachers in the practicum can benefit from the experience presented in the paper. The implication of the paper for teacher educators is that before they complain that student teaches are unreflective, they should set clear objectives and expectations for themselves as well as their student teachers and supply their student teachers with methods of structuring and evaluating their reflections. They also need to be careful and flexible when they employ theoretical frameworks proposed by some teacher educators to identify, structure and determine the reflective levels of what their student teachers write.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nAt the heart of critical pedagogy are the humanistic conception of people as learners and active participants in their world and the view of education as a practice of freedom. Critical pedagogues argue that: 'The educator is not the found of wisdom' trying to fill the empty buckets: education is not a process of banking received knowledge. Rather education is an active process in which the teacher controls neither the knowledge nor  \nthe learning outcomes' (Jarvis, 1995 , p. 151) . This view urges us to redefine or to carefully examine what we mean by:  \nteachers are at the centre of educational enterprise or, in the words of Beyer (1987), the‘linchpin of educational improvements’(p. 26, emphasis added) . If the main reason why we offer education is to help people liberate themselves we have to shift teacher education from a place where student teachers collect a grab-bag of techniques and tricks to a place where they start to think critically about issues surrounding the social and individual purposes of schooling. Any democratic teacher education program transgresses beyond the process of essentialising purportedly justified moral views that in fact merely serve individual or factional interests and strives to inculcate open-mindedness and free expression.  \nWe have to see classroom not only as an arena of indoctrination and enforcing submission into the dominant beliefs and ideologies, but also as ' a cultural terrain that promotes learner empowerment and self-transformation’(McLaren, 1989, p. 167) .
