Building professional community and supporting teachers as learners: the potential of case methods

Lawrence Ingvarson
M Marett

Abstract

This paper is directed to teachers looking for something more satisfying that the usual short course mode of in service education where teachers play the role of passive audience to someone else's agenda for change. The authors share some of their recent experiences in the kind of professional communities and networks that many now identify as essential to effective professional development.
