The purpose of this article is to describe a paradigm of reflection that explicitly synthesizes varied perspectives of reflection into a coherent model grounded on the ancient conception of virtue. Previous conceptions of reflection have considered its moral implications and connections but have stopped short of claiming that reflection is essentially of moral value. This model identifies reflection with the classical moral virtue phronesis by merging contemporary work on reflection in teaching with philosophical work on phronesis. The article concludes with an account of the value and utility of conceptualizing reflection as phronesis.
