Learning in and from Practice: Comments and Reflections

What can I add to such a sum of the quite interesting ideas presented in this strand? I quite agree with the important points often emphasized in the texts: the importance of taking into account the complexity of the related issues, not only when interpreting research results but also when conceiving a study; the importance (perhaps even the necessity?) of the collective work, whatever it could be, in in-service teachers’ development; the importance of the (long) time to make training effective— even if it is implicit in some works; the importance for professional development of taking into account and even mixing actual teachers’ practices and knowledge which is not self-sufficient whatever its contents could be.
