Symposium continued from 01 SES 07 A
Contribution
This paper explores the professional learning and professional development of teachers, principals and other educators. It identifies our understanding of the terms professional learning and professional development. Various national political ideologies and policies that have influenced the work in this area are identified. In particular the paper explores the key areas that the PEP network have addressed related to professional learning and professional development: action research for professional learning; leading for learning; professional learning in the workplace; initial teacher education; and professional learning associated with discipline areas. The concepts of praxis and bildung are highlighted as important understandings that guide our work. The paper concludes with a reflection on what we have achieved, and what we are still to do.
