This publication identifies themes that describe actions taken at schools to develop professional learning communities. As co-developers worked at school sites, SEDL analyzed their initial actions and interactions with their schools, and these observations offer insight into the beginning steps others can take to help schools become PLCs.
This publication is one of a series of briefing papers called Issues About Change.
