Had it not been for the pandemic, I would have never thought to explore a course called ‘Reflective Writing for Teachers’. Thank you for recommending it, and insisting that I take up this journey, even though I had my apprehensions. Cut to now after my ninth session, I feel it has got me thinking at various levels-and thinking through various perspectives.  \nEach week’s assignment got me reflecting on my own journey  \nTo me, Reflective Writing has been that silent space between the words.  \nA space of deep listening and being open to other voices-the process of thinking and owning it has been transformational.  \nJayshree Murali  \nas an educator – where I have faltered, stumbled and got back up – as a student or as an educator. Whether it was a helping hand lent by a teacher/colleague/ friend, or doing the course corrections myself, I pondered over them all through these assignments.  \nLike they say, words and images matter-the topics chosen for assignments by Neeraja Didi, or the additional reading resources to broaden one’s perspectives, the peer group sharing of assignmentsand interaction every week – all these helped me discover ways in which one can make a difference.  \nThe course is helping me interpret the more perplexing aspects of education and how, as educators, we are key factors in them. I must admit that the assignments did get a little tough, as I constantly looked for valid points to make, and engaged in a deeper understanding of the intricacies of the topics discussed.  \nWe live in a partisan time and, many a time, we find ourselves squaring off others’ thoughts and beliefs. This course is making me look at the same issue through varied lenses and, what is interesting is, a whole lot of perspectives are emerging from the sharing of assignments and discussions that come onto the platter, from educators of diverse backgrounds.  \nI particularly liked working on a few assignments that were more like holding a mirror to my past teaching experience in school. The first assignment on interpreting a student’s report took me back tomy very first experience of writing naïve student reports, using standard phrases, without even knowing the child. It was a reflection of myself as a clueless teacher, trying to fit into the roles of a teacher and then, years later, reflecting on the report as a parent.
