Hi,

I found the most interesting articles, written by Fred Korthagen. Teacher can't be good in the clasroom before he or she reflect his or her professional identity, values... Ongoing trainings have to match to this issues (their identities...).  

Best wishes,  Sonja

Best,

Hi Qassim!

Have you tried to add to your search on "primary education" some of these keywords: professional development; continuous professional development; professional learning?

Here are some references (conceptual and empirical) you may find useful:

Hi - my work is in higher education, and not like you in primary education, however I will suggest you to search for articles adn keywords regarding "Learning Environment". A lot of research to explore.  All the best in your search - karin Berntsen, Norway

Maybe, this article  'The Way of learning' could be helpful, to find on:
