Teachers' Writing
Groups: Collaborative Inquiry and Reflection for
Professional Growth
About the Book
How can teachers—in whatever setting they work—
effectively facilitate their own professional
development through collaborative writing and
reflection? Teachers’ Writing Groups addresses this
question by focusing on a community of educators that
uses social writing as a vehicle for learning. This book
delves into questions about writing, reflection, and
professional development as an interactive social
process.
