Emmanuel O'Grady; Geraldine Mooney-Simmie – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2024

Chan Fong Yee, Fanny – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2014
Teaching and research are two inseparable components in higher education. There are continuous debates about the relationship between the two.

Admiraal, Wilfried; Berry, Amanda – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2016
In teacher education programmes, written portfolios or text-based self-evaluations are generally used to document the development of student teachers' competence. However, such approaches do no justice to the complex nature of teaching as they tend to lead to evidence in which teacher competencies are disconnected and removed from the actual…

In this work, we explore journal writing as a way to come to know culture, particularly cultural phenomenon, vastly different from one's own firmly held and enacted beliefs. In this research, we accept the premise that writing is a way of knowing and adopt journal writing as a tool through which students can explore the knowledge they have…

Mortari, Luigina – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2012
The notion of reflection has become an object of attention in education, but the research on this topic is often reduced to mere reflective practice.

Danielowich, Robert M. – Teachers and Teaching: Theory and Practice, 2014
Since many studies that use video to support teacher learning are situated in strongly guided contexts and encourage particular kinds of thinking, we still know very little about how more loosely guided contexts can support teachers to think about the dilemmas of practice associated with their own goals by reflecting about video. This study…
