This book offers a critical exploration of how Professional Learning Networks (PLNs) equip educators to work collaboratively to develop their professional practice and be agents of innovation in their field. Providing access to six real-life examples of equity-oriented Professional Learning Networks, this book illustrates key attributes that build educators' practice, expertise, and investment in innovation. Crucially, the authors shine a light on the ability of PLNs to address questions of equity, both for educators working in remote and rural communities who have limited access to professional development and other resources, and diverse learners from equity-seeking communities. This book is of interest to readers from scholarly, practitioner, and policy backgrounds who want to gain an innovative look at real-life cases to inform current and future equity-oriented PLNs. Readers will discover the importance and potential of centering teachers, students, inquiry, collaboration, and context within educational transformation efforts. 606 $aProfessional learning communities 606 $aEmployees$xCoaching of 606 $aTeachers$xTraining of 606 $aEducation$xTraining & Certification$2bisacsh 606 $aTeaching skills & techniques$2bicssc 615 0$aProfessional learning communities. 615 0$aEmployees$xCoaching of. 615 0$aTeachers$xTraining of. 615 7$aEducation$xTraining & Certification. 615 7$aTeaching skills & techniques. 676 $a370.711 702 $aSchnellert$b Leyton 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820880003321 996 $aProfessional learning networks$94110631 997 $aUNINA
