Learning communities help Singapore teachers “build their learning together”

In an effort to boost professional development among teachers, Singapore’s Education Ministry is encouraging the formation of “learning communities” within and across schools. These informal groups allow educators to share information and ideas that will help them become better teachers. One sign of their growing popularity: There are some 1,000 learning communities in Singapore schools today, up from just 8 in 1998. Find this story at Channel News Asia.
