Description
Introduction The nature of what teachers do in classrooms has been clearly shown to have important influences on student learning (Hattie, 2003). There has been considerable interest in recent times in promoting 'quality teaching' as evidenced by the Commonwealth government's Quality Teaching Program, which has provided considerable support for teacher professional development (Commonwealth, n.d.). One of the principles commonly espoused in relation to professional development for teachers is that the practices introduced should have a firm research base. Statements about the importance of professional development being informed by research on effective practices are common. For example, the Victorian Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (2005, p. 14) stated that teacher professional development should be 'informed by the best available research on effective learning and teaching'; Australian Capital Territory's Department of Education and Training (2008a) stated that professional development should 'support the adoption of proven contemporary practice in teaching, learning, school leadership and career development for all staff ' and the New South Wales Department of Education and Training (NSW DET) (2006, p. 7) stated: 'Research ... underpins all programs and strategies' for professional learning. It would seem that educational authorities see their role as promoting evidence-based practice in schools.
