Acting and Interacting: Teacher Narratives and the Building of Global Community
Abstract
This chapter looks at the way in which an online discussion forum into critical incidents impacts on the professional knowledge and self-esteem of teachers engaged in in-service development on an MA in Education programme. The chapter shows how the online environment enabled teachers to share concerns and values about their profession and to recognise connections between apparently widely different cultural settings. The online discussion supported the teacher’s individual actions and provided structured opportunity for teachers to arrive at action plans for their own development. The chapter explores the generative principles which made these activities work. It also considers the relationship between individual action and its capacity to impact on students, colleagues and institutions.
