Memo on the Effect of Case Writing
4/27/04, Transformative professional development
Ellinger, E. (2004). Studying students: The effect of case development on teaching. NARST conference.
Qualitative research presenting data on the changes in teaching practice having gone through the process of writing teaching dilemma cases. Five themes emerged out of the interviews of four elementary science teachers: Listening with purpose, Increased desire to understand student misunderstandings, Ongoing reflection on teacher decisions, Collaboration with colleagues fostered, and Designing assessments that provide real data. The author concludes that case writing is a profound method of teacher professional development.
Use of the instructional design process? Reification in technologically appropriate methods. Teachers must understand what technologies are available to them, what each is good for, how to go about designing for each. What about using the CoPLS model of instructional material for teacher professional development. Spanning the offerings of GMU across literacy, science education methods.
