RP is an educational app that helps teachers to critically reflect and evaluate their lessons with the view to improving student progress and attainment. As teachers we have a professional responsibility to be reflective and evaluative about our practice. As a result of this reflection we will be able to identify how to improve our professional activity in order to improve the quality of our pupils' learning. Reflection causes us to evaluate what happened and why; it encourages us to try out new ideas and promote changes in pupils' learning behaviour.  There is a big focus these days on teachers reflecting on their lessons, it’s what we’ve been taught whilst completing our teacher training, however there’s one thing us teachers don’t really have in abundance of supply – time. Using the RP app you can reflect instantly in under 10 minutes! The pressure to cover content/syllabus and, at times teach to the exam can prevent us from reflecting and evaluating our lessons. Prof. John Hattie’s book on Visible Learning for Teachers: Maximising Impact on Learning (Routledge, 2012) states that expert teachers are not committed to specific teaching strategies – rather, they regularly focus on evaluating the effects they have on students and adjust teaching methods accordingly. The RP app aims to simplify the way in which you reflect on your lessons and present the data in the most simple and easy-to-understand way, leaving you more time to do what you do best – teach! Not only is this a useful app to help teachers to reflect better in the short-run in order to raise progress and attainment in the long-run, it is also a very useful tool for managers in that it can help create pedagogical discussions and focus for learning observations and interventions.
