The purpose of this paper was to assess college teachers’ attitudes towards reflective practice and
knowing their beliefs about promoting reflective practice to improve institutional and professional
growth. The study was mixed-method in nature. The population was comprised of 203 college
teachers and a sample of 132 teachers was randomly selected by using a sample selection table.
An adapted Reflective Attitude Questionnaire (RAQ) constructed by Young (1989) consisting of
15 Likert items was used to assess the attitude of the college teachers. Semi structure interviews
were also taken from the 10 college teachers to know their beliefs about how reflective practice
could be promoted for teachers’ professional growth and institutional development. The RAQ had
an alpha reliability of .90 which meant the instrument was reliable. Content validity was observed
to verify the interview statements suggested by experts. Findings disclosed that teachers
considered reflective practice useful for their teaching performance and professional growth.
However, college principals did not facilitate reflection among teachers that impeded teachers'
professional development as well as institutional growth.
