This timely publication explores how a teacher community or collective can be created and sustained. The intersections of the group, community, and network are considered in terms of teacher interaction for learning and professional development. The book is separated into two parts, with the first part focusing on how practitioners can create and sustain a teacher collective while the second part presents concrete examples of the application of concepts, technologies, and prospects. This publication provides an intriguing insight into collective professional development praxis and critically engages with the concept of learning environments, especially within the context of collective-oriented technology. In a world where online presences are often focused on the individual, this refreshing take on the affordances of teacher collectives emphasizes the importance of humans as social beings.
