    the outstanding characteristics of the extended professional
    (teacher) is a capacity for autonomous professional self-development
    through systematic self-study, through the study of the work of other
    teachers and through the testing of ideas by classroom research techniques.
    Stenhouse 1975 p.44

    PROCEDURES:
    - ?
    The course is practitioner based and will be largely self-directed:
    the instructor's role will be that of facilitator and resource person. Students
    will be encouraged to work in dyads or triads particularly for the research/
    analysis component of the course.
    After an initial meeting with the instructo'P_(Sessjon 1), students
    will review the literature and identify a teaching skill they wish to develop
    that is appropriate to their teaching style. After video-taping their baseline
    skill in that particular technique students will collaboratively begin to
    internalize and implement their chosen skill. During Session 2, students will
    report to the class on their progress in mastering the new skill. Session 3
    will constitute a workshop on classroom research/observation skills, as a
    prelude to the research/analysis component of the course. Session 4 will be a

    of teaching they have internalized. The final session (Session 6) will include
    the presentation of research reports.
