Teacher Learning
Since the l980's when "teacher learning" emerged as a new focus of research, we have made some progress in understanding how people learn to teach and develop their identity and practice over time. In this session we will consider different "theories" of teacher learning and consider their implications for teacher education policy and practice.
Please RSVP by December 28th 2007
