Narratives of collaboration in practice; discourses, dimensions and diversity in collaborative professional development

This research is the first thematic review of narratives of collaborative practice as given in ‘practice insight’ working papers published by CollectivED. It reveals the diversity of practices and how the dimensions of these practices stimulate, frame and limit collaboration and in what ways the practitioner authors create discourses of collaboration. Through this analysis the following research question will be addressed: What can we learn from practitioners’ narratives of collaborative professional development, and are key lessons to be found amongst its complexities?
