What do teachers learn from talking to one another about their practice? This set of exciting stories focuses on this important question and presents a case for how the ordinary talk among teachers is a potent medium for teacher learning and professional development. Drawing from the work of eight groups of teachers in the United States and Israel who have met in conversation for the past 4 to 5 years, the contributors present rich descriptions of the complexities, obstacles, contradictions, and possibilities that can accompany teacher conversation.
