ERIC ED442765: Triad Journaling as a Tool

More Book Details

Description of the Book:

This study explored the use of triad journaling as a collaborative tool for enhancing teaching and learning in a professional development school. The triad journals expand the notion of traditional journaling between university supervisor and student teacher to include the cooperating teacher in a weekly dialogue about teaching and learning. Based on field notes, informal interviews, and the document analysis of journals collected over an 18-month period of time, the study presents four findings: (1) triad journals helped facilitate mentor role reconceptualization; (2) triad journaling led to heightened communication and reflection; (3) triad journals nurtured a problem posing culture; and (4) members of the triad described a “professional energy” created by the shared professional space.
