I begin my review by asking you to read Joy Mounter’s
abstract to her thesis, in which Joy outlines her original
contribution to Living Educational Theory Research with
her idea of Living Professionalism. Joy’s Living Educational
Theory Research is amongst the most sustained inquiries
on an individual’s professional development using a Living
Educational Theory approach and also making an original
contribution to knowledge of Living Educational Theory
Research. The originality will be of use to all practitionerresearchers who are engaged with enhancing their
educational influences in the learning of social formations:
My research and thesis contribute to the field of the
continuing professional development of educational
practitioners. The originality of my thesis proposes
Living Professionalism as a new professional, values-led
Teacher Standard of professionalism, where
educational practitioners accept educational
responsibility for their own continuing, values-led,
professional development. This includes teachers
continually researching their practice to improve it,
generating values-laden explanations of their
educational influence in learning, contributing to the
growth of a global educational knowledgebase.
I draw on a Living Educational Theory Research
methodological approach to continuing professional
development in education. My thesis includes evidence
of my reflections on the educational influences I have
in my own learning, the learning of others and cross
social formations, as I accept educational responsibility
for my Living Professionalism. I have critically engaged
and analysed literature on Living Educational Theory
Research, |
