Chapter 1 Being a Teacher, Developing as a Professional -- chapter 2 Teachers as Inquirers -- chapter 3 Understanding Teachers' Development: Experience, Expertise and Competence -- chapter 4 Teachers' Conditions of Work: Classrooms, Cultures and Leadership -- chapter 5 Self Renewal: Appraisal, Change and Personal Development Planning -- chapter 6 School-led Professional Development: A Case Study -- chapter 7 In-service Education and Training: Limits and Possibilities -- chapter 8 Learning through Partnerships -- chapter 9 Networks for Learning: Teacher Development, School Improvement -- chapter 10 The Role of Teachers in a Learning Society.
Summary: Effective schools or improving schools are fashionable terms in the rhetoric of recent education movements, yet the heart of these movements is often more to do with teaching quality than with school practice. This book takes a holistic view of teacher development, examining the contexts and conditions of teaching: school leadership and culture; teachers' lives and histories; change; teacher learning, competence and expertise; and the moral purposes of teaching. Day looks at the conditions under which teacher development may be enhanced, and brings together research and other information, from the UK and overseas.
