Looks like a really timely project.
Will you gather - or do you have - data on the contribution made to out of field teaching stats by those teachers who are working in team contexts on integrated inquiries?
Hi Rosemary!
Some of the schools in the study are using integrated approaches to teacher collaboration, 1 in particular has an alternative structure for Years 7-9. We are finding that teachers who work together in collabration and repressent different subjects support each other as each takes on subject expert and they can mentor the others. They also teach together in close proximity - this is helpful in providing support as needed.

when will you be publishing Linda? I'm sure you are aware this is a vexed issue
Early next year hopefully. Although some aspects of the project outcomes will be published with others in a book I'm writing with about 10 other authors from around the world looking at this issue. It is due to Springer end of Jan, although writing with many authors is proving to be time consuming!
Thanks for your interest Rosemary!
