Phase 7: Collective Education Activities (Transformational Learning Model
• Collaborative research• A Center for:
– disseminating information about pedagogy and technology
– Grasping content and professional elements and conditions of learning and teaching
• Exchange of ideas between school teachers, researchers, administrators, students and university faculty

Transformational Learning Model
• Transformational Learning--New frames of teacher learning that professionalize and enhance the learning of pre-service teachers, veteran teachers and teacher educators:
• Learning by teaching• Learning by doing• Learning by collaborating

Transformational LearningUniversity students, Public school
staff, and University faculty will each acquire additional knowledge and new understandings of pedagogy.
Cluster students and public school teachers collaborate to enhance pupil learning and improve teaching practices of students, teachers and college faculty.

Implications for SOE/Pacific University
Reallocation of existing resources and new resources are obtained e.g.,
• University supports priority hiring of PDS site staff as adjunct faculty
• Cost share for transportation, etc. to PDS sites.

Policies
• require students to participate in teacher education learning communities/clusters.
• enable cohort groups of students to be established.
• recognize participation of area public school staff as valuable in-service professional development partners in teacher education and encourage further their involvement in PDS initiatives.

• Policies that support university faculty teaching field-based courses
• Flexibility within systems geared toward traditional teacher preparation

Learning Communities/PDS Work and Scholarship
• Learning communities are participatory action research from which data can be obtained as new knowledge capable of being disseminated through publication.
