Abstract

Despite the increasing prominence of web-based networks and online communities in teacher professional learning and educational reform, studies rarely describe or analyse (let alone theorise) teachers’ collective learning. This paper outlines an ecological framework for making sense of networked collective learning, empirically developed and research tested. Findings indicate the worth of making sense of collective professional learning as an ecological process occurring on an adaptive value-laden (or fitness) landscape.
