Johns Model of reflection
Johns model is based on five cue questions which enable you to break down your
experience and reflect on the process and outcomes. John (1995) used seminal
work by Carper (1978) as the basis for his model exploring aesthetics, personal
knowing, ethics and empirics and then encouraging the reflective practitioner to
explore how this has changed and improved their practice.
