520 |a Educational researchers, policy-makers and practitioners are increasingly focusing their attention on Professional Learning Networks in order to facilitate teacher development and encourage school and school system improvement. However, despite the understanding that PLNs can contribute significantly to improving teaching practice and student achievement, there are key challenges regarding their use. In this new edited volume, Brown and Poortman evaluate these challenges from both a theoretical and practical approach. Also featuring case studies and exemplars to contextualise sustainable learning networks, Networks for Learning is an accessible and thoroughly researched book, which will be essential reading and a valuable resource for researchers, teachers and school leaders who are interested in developing professional learning networks--back cover.
