A Room of One's Own: Teaching and Learning to Teach through Inquiry

In this paper, we argue that, in the best of all possible worlds, every teacher would engage in teacher-research. In order to become a teacher-researcher, those who teach will require extra resources. We propose that teacher educators can provide a substantial resource by offering the services of a teacher education student to assist practicing teacher-researchers in their efforts. Ultimately, the preservice teachers may gain the most from such a relationship.
