Teacher Learning in the Context of Teacher Collaboration: Connecting Teacher Dialogue to Teacher Learning
De Jong, Loes; Meirink, Jacobiene; Admiraal, Wilfried
Research Papers in Education, v37 n6 p1165-1188 2022
A multiple case study has been carried out of four teacher groups who engaged in collective lesson design, observation, and reflection to support their professional learning. The teacher groups were examined on what and how they learned from their collaboration over time. For each meeting, teachers' learning logs and transcripts were analysed. The results show that the groups differed in the amount, consistency, and stability of self-reported learning outcomes throughout the meetings. Differences between groups also relate to the number and type of dialogic moves between the teachers within each group. A main conclusion includes that challenging each other in their dialogues supported teachers' learning. Additional explanations of learning outcomes relate to teachers' collective participation and facilitation in the group.Keywords: teacher professional learning; teacher collaboration; collaborative learning activities; teacher dialogue; secondary education
