Design A Transitional Model From Professional Development (PD) Of Secondary Mathematics Teachers In Iran to Their Professional Learning (PL)

The purpose of this study was to design a transitional model from professional development (PD) of secondary mathematics teachers to their professional learning (PL). At the first stage of the study, a two dimensional model with 12 components was designed, using a linear model of PD by Krainer & Zehetmeier (2011) and another one for PL by Jaworski (2003). At the next stage, the new two-dimensional components were modified and at the end, a model was developed with nine components including integration of content & pedagogy, teachers’ cooperation with each other, internal and external support, the professional status of mathematics teachers, the role of teachers’ educators in teachers’ PL and finally, the effect of the interaction between teachers and educators in teachers’ PL.
