Fostering teacher community development: A review of design principles and a case study of an innovative interdisciplinary team
To deal with recent reforms and the accompanying complexity of work in
secondary education, ongoing collaboration between teachers has become more important.
A community is seen as a promising learning environment to support and embed collaboration
into the culture of the school. However, community theory for the design of teacher
communities seems underdeveloped. Therefore, this study aims to formulate a set of design
principles to foster the development of teacher communities in secondary education. The
set of design principles is based on a review of literature, as well as on a best-practice case.
The case study was used to validate design principles from the literature in the target
context. The resulting design principles were based on context-intervention-mechanismoutcome
logic that takes into account the context-dependency of interventions as well as
the mechanisms that help with understanding of how interventions produce certain outcomes.
Implications for practice relate to ownership and co-design of the arrangement. The
set of design principles provides a practical basis for teachers and administrators aiming to
facilitate community building in their school. Future research is recommended on testing
the effectiveness of the arrangement in the target context by means of a multiple case
study.NWO-pro
