New Way to Think About Teacher Professional Learning: - Tina Doe - Bog

In 2005 Tina Doe set out to change the way teachers learn. She has pioneered what is today known as the Teacher Professional Learning Initiative: an exciting and meaningful way through which teachers collaborate to learn.
In this book Tina Doe tells the story of how schools and teachers are coming under increasing pressure to meet the new expectations that a fast changing technologically based and global world is demanding. She argues teachers have to now meet the learning needs of all students, not just those who can "do schooling". But, as Doe outlines, the teacher education literature and anecdotes from teachers and education systems across Australia (and elsewhere) about teacher professional learning suggests there must be a better way. This book is a case study of one such approach to teacher professional learning that works.
