One the keys to guiding learners towards reflective learning is not providing learners with answers to questions they can figure out themselves. This "forces" them to think about and work on what they have to do to figure it out. This practice by itself can do a lot towards the aim.
Unfortunately there has been far too little attention given to the implications of this practice for lesson and course design.
