This\u003cbr\u003ebook fills that gap as it explores school contexts and cultures that educators\u003cbr\u003eencounter post-teacher professional preparation and provides an understanding\u003cbr\u003eof how to engineer an enabling environment for sustainable practice. The effectiveness of teacher\u003cbr\u003eprofessional preparation programmes cannot be assessed in isolation from the education\u003cbr\u003eculture and context to which teachers return.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eTransferring Professional Learning\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eaddresses the factors that facilitate and inhibit participants from sustainably\u003cbr\u003eimplementing what they have learnt on a professional preparation programme.\u003cbr\u003eThe series of cases presented in the book connect readers with real-life\u003cbr\u003estories of individuals whose experiences provide opportunities for reflection\u003cbr\u003eon their own practice and pathways for growth individually and collectively. A\u003cbr\u003eunique feature of the book is the discussion sections at the end of each\u003cbr\u003echapter, which, in essence, allow the reader to personalize and contextualize\u003cbr\u003ethe knowledge gained in each chapter, thereby providing a richer and deeper\u003cbr\u003ehermeneutic experience. Thus, the structure of the book invokes meta-cognition.\u003cbr\u003eThe book draws attention to the critical role of context and culture in\u003cbr\u003esustaining the practices to which participants were introduced on the\u003cbr\u003eprogramme, but even more so, it forces an interrogation of educators'\u003cbr\u003eidentities and personal philosophies.
