Professional Learning Communities: An Ongoing Exploration

Professional Learning Communities: An Ongoing Exploration provides a review of the five dimensions along which a school staff should operate in order to become a learning community and discusses the role such a community can play in school reform. The book also touches upon the four themes that emerged through SEDL's work and research during the Creating Communities of Continuous Inquiry and Improvement (CCCII) project and discusses how a school can begin establishing a professional learning community.
