Abstract [en]

Previous research on teachers’ responses to changes in the curriculum or to new innovations has shown that they do not easily make changes in practice. For teachers to commit to new goals and strategies it is important that the TPD satisfy three basic needs: for competence, relatedness, and autonomy. For headmasters and education managers it is important to organize a TPD that is cost efficient. This workshop will present a model for TPD that mix online material with face to face discussions where teachers discuss, co-plan and collectively reflect upon experiences from the changed practice. The model focuses on the processes by which teachers advance their skills (competence), make their plans relevant to their contexts (relatedness) and exercise ownership (autonomy) in the process of change. Hence, it is an effective professional development model designed to address teachers view of student learning goals and needs. The model can be implemented without too much interference in the teachers’ time schedules for teaching.
