Reviews
If only this book had been around when I began my TAFE career, and especially when I was managing a team of both experienced and new teachers. Its theoretical underpinnings, supportive 'nuts and bolts' suggestions, and the vignettes telling stories from a wide range of practitioners and work sites, keep it very real. It also has one of the best concluding chapters I have read in a nonfiction book, in that it provides an overall moral and ethical framework which will inspire action. Denise Newton, former TAFE practitioner and leader This book provides a solid foundation for those seeking to support teacher learning. I found it a delight to read: it flows well, is easy to understand, and provides a multi-faceted approach by addressing the ideas in a range of ways including through teacher stories, an overview of relevant research, and discussion of possible strategies. I particularly like the way the author 'speaks' to the reader. As I was reading, I found myself planning how to put the ideas and strategies in place in my own context. Tracey Dodimead, VET teacher, manager and leader of teacher learning
