Shulman (1989) argued how 'outrageously complex' teaching is and how reform imperatives driving standards should not lead to standardisation and the subsequent loss of soul. We assert that framing a model of teachers' Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is similarly 'outrageously complex', a multifaceted construct that has professional,…

Promoting teacher professional learning by empowering established master teachers as leaders is a priority in many societies, including America, Australia, and Canada.

Vermunt – Higher Education Research and Development, 2024
Higher education (HE) is engaged in a variety of educational innovations, as well as professional development initiatives (PDIs) to support teachers in attaining the required expertise. To improve teacher professional learning and development (PLD) and innovation processes, it is important to understand whether, how and why different PLD practices…

Steven B. Davis; John Hinck – Journal of Faculty Development, 2024
Scholarship on life cycles of teacher development posits that teachers progress through specific stages with specific developmental needs. However, this scholarship rests on studies over traditional ten-month, semester, or quarterly education cycles and does not accommodate alternative teaching frequencies or durations. This study applies this…

Etan Cohen; Adam Lefstein; Gideon Dishon – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Scholars and educators have puzzled for decades about how to provide K-12 teachers with the resources necessary to support and improve teaching. New information and communication technologies have opened up infinitely more possibilities, setting the stage for a renewed discussion about what teaching entails and how best to support it. In this…

Sull, Errol Craig – Distance Learning, 2023
In the online classroom environment, interactions with colleagues are far more limited than if in an a face-to-face teaching environment. Yet, there are still opportunities to correspond, share, and collaborate with them, and these colleagues come in a variety of personalities, subject expertise, and teaching abilities. Just believing that every…

Kim Marshall – Phi Delta Kappan, 2024
Traditional teacher evaluations -- full-lesson observations, write-ups, and debriefs -- are time-consuming and largely ineffective. As a principal, Kim Marshall found that mini-observations -- short, frequent, unannounced classroom visits, each followed by a face-to-face coaching conversation and brief narrative summary -- actually improved…

Allison R. Firestone; Rebecca A. Cruz; Darcie Massey – Journal of Mixed Methods Research, 2024
Theory-focused joint displays represent an innovative approach to data and results integration with potential to build understanding of complex constructs, including factors that influence change over time. However, the extant literature offers few examples for doing so, particularly in convergent research designs. Therefore, the purpose of this…

A Correlation between Evaluator Feedback on Teacher Evaluations Using T-TESS and Student Test Scores
Ashley Barker – ProQuest LLC, 2024
One of the greatest challenges for schools is to identify effective and ineffective teachers in a classroom. Teacher evaluation is an expensive process in both time and resources. It is important that evaluations provide data to improve teaching and learning. Therefore, each evaluation needs to communicate opportunities for growth. This…

Kevin Butler – Online Submission, 2024
The actions of a teacher are one of the strongest factors influencing students' academic achievement and future life success. However, some of the most common frameworks that are used to evaluate teachers and guide their development or improvement are not based on or informed by research about effective teaching methods. Other frameworks are…

Purpose: This paper focuses on prospective teachers' (PTs) participation in a lesson study (LS) that prompted them to research their own practice. We seek to describe the dimensions of PTs' knowledge of student learning developed during the process and the LS features fostering it. Design/methodology/approach: The participants were two PTs, a…

This qualitative case study investigates how faculty members in a Title I middle school engage in collaborative practices to enhance professional growth without formal professional learning. Framed within a descriptive lens (Merriam, 1998) and informed by Brown and Duguid's Community of Practice (CoP) framework (1991), the study addresses two…
