The focus of this guide is on emerging practice rather than
emerging technology. The examples and case studies in the
section, Exploring emerging practice, show different
perspectives and different approaches that reflect the

at in using technology to enhance learning and teaching. They
describe a series of exploratory journeys using a range of
technologies to address particular needs or ambitions.
Discusses the research at the university and school connection that is so often missing. Short of making sure a certain % of teachers are in grad school in any given year, what can we do?
he Associate Dean of Faculty Development & Human Resources at my workplace has asked me to recommend five readings (e.g., books, articles, blogpost, etc.) that would help inform his understanding of current changes regarding social networks, knowledge, and technology in education. Rather than develop the list alone, I thought it appropriate to (at least attempt to) crowdsource responses from individuals in my network.
So, what readings would you recommend to an educational leader in charge of faculty development in a teacher education program? Any responses are greatly appreciated.
