Teacher educator professional learning in context: Findings from the Reading Pedagogies of Equity Project
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Teacher educators are vital for promoting teacher education for school equity, and their own professional learning is necessary for supporting this endeavour. However, research on equity-focused professional learning for teacher educators (PLTE) that accounts for their contexts is limited. Oriented through critical posthumanities and drawing on data from 24 teacher educator participants from the Reading Pedagogies of Equity Project, a PLTE focused on critical reading praxes, this study considered the sociomaterial contexts of the participants, the needs and desires these produced for them, and the implications for critical, equity-focused PLTE. The study identified teacher educators as a diverse group, including through their positioning in the workplace, roles and responsibilities, and access to collaboration with other teacher educators. This diversity generated a demand for situated professional learning with delivery modes geared to access and engagement, flexible structures, and content that was meaningful to all.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
